The Science of Feeling Safe With Sound👂

The auditory system didn’t evolve just to help us hear better. It evolved to help us feel safe.It is constantly scanning the environment, checking if everything around us is okay.

When the auditory system is healthy, the brain relaxes. Sound feels normal. It does not demand attention.

When tinnitus or sound sensitivity begins, it is rarely just about the sound. It is about what that sound now means to the nervous system.

You feel irritable. Tired. On edge.Even when you cannot explain why.

Sound shapes how safe we feel in a space. When sound feels safe, the body softens. When it does not, the whole system stays alert.

Our work is not only about hearing tests. It is about helping people feel safe in their own sound world again.

If you have been feeling unsafe or overwhelmed or irritable or on edge because of your ears— consult our Specialist Audiologists for assessment & recommendations for your particular ear trouble.

Join me live as we talk about tinnitus, what is really happening in the nervous system, and how retraining therapy helps people move out of constant awareness and distress. Tinnitus Awareness Week 2026

04/02/2026

This live discussion brings together individuals living with tinnitus and the audiologists who have worked directly with them in clinical care.

The purpose of this session is to present tinnitus as it is experienced in real life. Patients will share their personal journeys, including the challenges, uncertainties, and changes over time. The audiologists involved in their care will provide clinical context, explain how treatment decisions are approached, and respond to questions in a clear and practical manner.

This is not a lecture or a scripted presentation. It is an open conversation between patients and clinicians who know each other’s stories, reflecting the reality of tinnitus care as it unfolds in the clinic.

The aim is to bring both patient experience and clinical practice into the public domain, and to contribute to a more accurate, informed, and constructive conversation about tinnitus.

Date: 4 February
Time: 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm Melbourne time
Format: Online live stream
Registration: Not required

This session forms part of Tinnitus Awareness Week and will be live streamed across LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram.

Did you know that ‍20-30% of the Australian population either currently live with, or will experience Tinnitus in their lives?

If you have your own experience of Tinnitus, you'll know how debilitating the condition can be, and how little public knowledge there is about this condition.

That's why Deafness Forum Australia supports and promotes Tinnitus Awareness Week (Feb 3-8).

Tinnitus Awareness Week is about building greater community awareness and understanding of Tinnitus and raising the profile of this debilitating condition.

Grateful first. Always.
My team and I sincerely thank our local and interstate audiology colleagues for their referrals, trust, and for working with us as part of a shared tinnitus care journey.

Today we completed the second tinnitus therapy session for a patient with hearing loss who was fitted with ITC hearing aids two weeks ago by another local audiologist. The hearing aids helped his tinnitus during the day, but at night and when the aids were out the tinnitus became catastrophic.

Today was the first time we used the Noise–Meaning–Feeling–Action framework.
In one session, the patient mapped how his tinnitus felt last week versus today. Seeing that contrast on paper and crossing out the earlier column with his daughter became therapy in itself.

The sheet shared here is from today’s session and shows a clear shift in tinnitus perception, meaning, and emotional response.

At the end of the session, the patient said:

“It feels like someone has done an operation on me and taken out the suffering from the tinnitus.”

On the back of the sheet, he wrote in Greek:

“Words are too poor to express what I am feeling right now. I and the ‘guest’(tinnitus) have found peace again.”

A special thank you to Audiologist Bernice Ang from Specsavers Audiology Oakleigh for optimising the patient’s hearing and continuing to play a vital role in his care.

Effective tinnitus treatment requires two things: optimising hearing function and calming the nervous system both are equally important.

For audiologists: we are always happy to support your tinnitus patients, whether after hearing aid fitting or after a hearing assessment in cases of normal hearing. Patients are discharged back to you for ongoing care.

Tinnitus outcomes are strongest when we work together.

🎸 After Metallica’s incredible night in Melbourne… our inbox has been overflowing.
More than ten people have reached out today, anxious after the concert -describing a ringing or buzzing sound in their ears that hasn’t stopped since.

That sound is called tinnitus and after loud music exposure, it’s often temporary.It usually settles within 48 hours as the auditory system recovers.

If it doesn’t fade after two days, please see your GP and ask for a referral to an audiologist specialising in tinnitus, or contact our clinic All Ears Hearing in Mount Waverley on (03) 9886 7157 to book a tinnitus appointment.

To ease the discomfort, try sound enrichment — play gentle nature sounds (like ocean waves or a soft waterfall) at a pleasant, low level in the background. This helps the auditory system stay calm and supported while it settles.

👉 Metallica, your music has brought so much joy to so many.

Please help us reach your fans who might be feeling scared right now — just by sharing this post so they know what to do if the ringing doesn’t stop.
