“CalmConnect is an incredible self-regulation program! I’ve been thrilled with what CalmConnect is doing in classrooms, home programs and direct therapy as it immediately calms and organizes children. Within minutes is calms even non-verbal children with autism in distress! CalmConnect calms and focuses a child with ASD in as little as 4 minutes.”

“I’ve been involved with neuroscience as a base of activity for a very long time and I’m so impressed with the foundations that CalmConnect brings… as we go forward we’re going to compile a lot more of the neuroscience that relates to this work. It looks like such a simple activity, but it’s really not.”

“One patient was hit in the head with shrapnel in Afghanistan in 2004 and has a history of PTSD/anxiety causing severe insomnia. Since using CalmConnect he is able to get to sleep faster and get better sleep. He told me that this has been the greatest help with his sleep far and above any drugs or meditation.”
