The Protocol - What It Is
The Extended Integrative Reprocessing and Reconsolidation Protocol
for Traumatic Memories and Dysfunctional Schemas (briefly RePro), can be fully understood by analyzing all the terms in its name:
Protocol = a structured method in multiple phases, with a clear sequence and precise indications
Extended = it is made up of a basic structure and numerous modules that can be added to touch upon every aspect deemed relevant; moreover, it's an embodied method in a broad and profound sense (watch the presentation video to learn more)
Reprocessing = aims to rework data, information, sensations, emotions, experiences, and other aspects that remained blocked or unprocessed at various levels (mental, emotional, somatic, allostatic load, stress axes, etc.)
Reconsolidation = leverages memory reconsolidation mechanisms to make memories and learnings pliable to change
Integrative = (re)unites and makes parts or elements that previously did not collaborate work in synergy; moreover, it integrates through different processes the sensory and bodily aspects with emotions, thoughts, motivation, and identity
Traumatic Memories and Dysfunctional Schemes = with these terms, in summary, the different aspects on which it is possible to intervene are indicated, including: modes, beliefs, parts, self-images, implicit learnings, bodily maps, somatic memories, etc.
The Protocol - What You Will Learn
The RePro Protocol guides you through a structured path, based on the integration of the most advanced scientific research with immediately applicable practical techniques.
You will learn to:
- Identify, reprocess, and reconsolidate memories, learnings, modes, or dysfunctional schemes.
- Make adaptation modes, self-representations, and deep beliefs pliable and open to change.
- Know, integrate, and make the different parts, functions, and schemes synergistic.
- Develop new adaptation modes, relational, self-regulation, self-images, behaviors that are functional and coherent.
- Use a global approach that considers the individual in their entirety, mind-body, that includes from the cellular and epigenetic level to the most sophisticated parts of thought and identity.
A DIRECT ACCESS PATH
How is it possible to directly act on the deep levels underlying the mechanisms of adaptation, emotional responses, stress levels, and personal identity?
How can change and development be fostered in a structured and scientifically founded manner?
How is it possible to overcome modes that have structured over time and modify memories and images considered now indelible?
The answer consists of several factors:
> With the right levels of activation on all levels (sensory, neurobiological, emotional, posture, movement, etc.);
> Respecting the timing of the consolidation and reconsolidation phases of memories and general learnings;
> Leveraging reprocessing mechanisms at the mental and emotional, but also perceptual and somatic levels;
> With the support of what in the protocol are called "add-ons", namely: sensory stimulations (lights, sounds, etc.), micro-movements, engaging posture and balance, with complex movements, negative phase movements, ocular movements (NB: the protocol includes different modalities from those of EMDR), psychosomatic releases, and many other ways you will learn in the course;
> With unconscious sensory stimuli (in the sense of "below the level of awareness") that can be provided in many ways, including with the RePro App.
The RePro Protocol, the App, and a series of methods and procedures available in this course, are based precisely on these mechanisms!
With the guidance and tools of the RePro Protocol, you can support your patients in areas and on issues such as:
❖ Ineffective and non-adaptive modalities and response patterns under stress
❖ Traumatic memories and learnings with dysfunctional emotional connotations
❖ Somatic memories (emotional postures, muscular chains of stress axes, scars, psychosomatic blocks, etc.) that influence emotional and mental states
❖ Psychophysical activation levels, ideomotor automatisms, and other protective schemas not suitable for the current context and relationships
❖ Reorganization of functioning and integration of different Parts (of the Self or according to other models)
❖ Metabolic, neural, and immune activation levels (fundamental to act on psychosomatic issues)
❖ Incoherent and unintegrated body images and maps
❖ Other complex phenomena that significantly influence the way of living and decisions made every day.
ANALOGIES AND DIFFERENCES WITH OTHER APPROACHES AND METHODS
If you're wondering if this Protocol is a variant of EMDR, Flash Technique, AEDP, ART, Cognitive Psychotherapy techniques, or something else… the short answer is: no!
If you know and like them, here you will find some mechanisms common to these and other effective techniques, explained and explored also from the perspectives of other disciplines and viewpoints. This will allow you to use them even better, with further insights and integrations.
Moreover, as with everything we do with Integrative Sciences, because our focus is multi-disciplinary integration, we analyze and include other mechanisms as well, in order to increase the areas of intervention and the processes on which to act.
Thus emerges a unique protocol different from other techniques, with a base schema and many modules that can be added for specific purposes. You can use this protocol as it is or use some elements and phases as an expansion of other techniques you already use.

Stress, Emotions and Health - The Manual for Integrative Professionals.
Science, methods and tools to work on connections between emotions, posture, brain, metabolism, immunity and all the processes at the heart of health and development.
Whatever the goal (therapeutic, educational, training), achieving it requires learning something new or modifying something:
-
a schema
-
a belief
-
a modality
-
dynamics between parts
-
a fear or a habit
-
a body map
-
a somatic learning
With the Extended Integrative Reprocessing and Reconsolidation Protocol, you have numerous tools and a structured method to act on all these aspects.
Within this course, you also find a tool to support the Protocol and other Methods of working on memories
the RePro App
Underlying processes
Our perceptual system can identify an image or a word after viewing it just a few seconds and even if it is a little masked (made less identifiable at a conscious level).
Even when there is no conscious awareness, mechanisms and adaptation processes are activated automatically.
You can objectively identify that there has been an activation of the stress axis (tachycardia, muscular activation, changes in breathing, release of adrenalin, cortisol and other neurotransmitters etc.) after stimulus from the RePro App (which allows showing an image or a word for a few milliseconds, enough to activate the brain's adaptation responses but without the person being aware of it) via HRV, vagal tone and biomarker measurement tools to name just a few.
In addition to this, specific brain areas are activated depending on the type of stimulus shown (for example nurture circuits when the image shows an unhappy child, social regulation circuits when there is an aggressive person pictured, fear circuits when shown a spider in case of phobia etc.)
