Resumo: Greek culture recognized the power of music in treating various disorders. Plato advocated its use to promote mental and physical health and to overcome anxiety. Apollo associated Medicine and Music for emotional balance, while Aristotle emphasized the ability to generate positive emotions. The research empirically tested the effectiveness of an intervention protocol that combined music and positive psychotherapy to reduce stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. The theoretical approach was Positive Psychology, which focuses on individual strengths and virtues as resources to protect and strengthen emotions. The study was divided into stages: in Stage 1, 250 participants were recruited, including 50 from the institution stationed in the capital, comprising both men and women aged 18 to 66. A sociodemographic questionnaire (SDQ) and instruments (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule - PANAS; Perceived Social Support Scale - PSSS; Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21); Brazilian version of the Meaning in Life Questionnaire (MLQ-BR)) were administered via Google Forms to understand the emotional reality and protective factors of these professionals, along with their social support within the institution. Analyses were conducted using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 26, calculating Cronbach's Alpha coefficients. In Stage 2, the music and positive psychotherapy protocol was implemented to empirically adapt a psychological intervention protocol, which could be used for prevention and promotion in mental health care and quality of life for police forces. The experimental method was used with an adaptation of Seligman and Rashid's intervention protocol (2019), along with a protocol authored by the lead researcher in association with Music and Positive Psychotherapy. The group consisted of 16 participants, with 10 completing the sessions. Eight sessions aimed to provide greater well-being and bond strengthening through group singing activities, music listening, and Positive Psychotherapy tools. In Stage 3, post-test, the instruments used in Stage 1 were re-administered to the participants who completed the intervention protocol, aiming to evaluate how a program with activities including music and positive psychotherapy would generate a higher level of psychological well-being. The main results of the intervention showed effectiveness in reducing acute stress and anxiety, demonstrating the benefits of the adopted protocol. The other domains of well-being dimensions evaluated by the applied instruments, PANAS; PSSS; DASS-21; MLQ-BR; did not undergo significant influences. The study suggests that future research should focus on continuous practices that promote the long-term benefits of music and positive psychotherapy for health. It also highlights a promising new field of scientific studies with preventive applications in mental health and psychological well-being. It reinforces the importance of non-pharmacological and non-invasive therapy in reducing stress and anxiety, being accessible and safe, especially for police professionals
