It's No Barriers LIVE! We are kicking off our celebration of another unbelievable Summit and ultra-fun Questival with music, dancing, and lots of energy! #summitwithus
Making sense of sensory processing challenges... "As SPD'ers, we tend to spend an outrageous amount of time attempting to make sense of ourselves and our place in a world that doesn't seem too perceptive regarding our comfort or functionality." ow.ly/na1230m7rgM
“#Sensory sensitivities are not constant. Just because someone could “handle”noise yesterday does not mean they can handle the same noise today. Everyone has their own range of what is comfortable for them but vary within that range within minutes/hours/days/months.”-great post👇🏻

“#AutismHour is very important to our family because it lessens the sensory overload and even more importantly, it raises awareness of autism in shops and with the general public.” @lollujo blogs about #AutismHour for @SpcialNdsJungle bit.ly/2IsQ65Z

“... I at times use person first language and at other times use identity first language.I recognize the value of these different ways of talking about #autism, and try to use them equally and with respect.” From @DrJonathanWeiss- these words resonate with me, I will do the same.
Interesting... Do you think this would help change behavior in your schools? ow.ly/1Ape30lX7zQ #spd #asd #autism #adhd #school #punishment #meditation #detention #behavior #kids #children #preschool #kindergarten #elementary #hope #help #thrive

So true-I worked in an eating disorders unit years ago in the UK. There were girls with anorexia who were always a mystery to the team. I now recognize that they were autistic & their challenges with eating did not stem from a desire to be thin but were #sensory & anxiety-based.
