Understanding and Managing Sensory Sensitivities - How to understand and deal with what’s going on inside you

In this Autism Infocast, you'll learn how many autistic people experience the world through a uniquely tuned sensory lens, making everyday sensations powerfully intense or even overwhelming. We cover what it means to be over-sensitive or under-sensitive across all senses, exploring how these neurological differences profoundly shape daily life and can lead to sensory overload. You'll gain practical strategies to build a personal sensory toolkit and help you manage these experiences. We also give you insights on how family and friends can adapt environments and provide crucial support, working towards a more comfortable and accommodating world for all people.Support the showGet more practical advice, ideas, and knowledge...To browse hundreds of insightful articles, videos, podcasts, books, resources, and courses about Autism and Neurodiversity, all made to help both autistic and non-autistic people alike, visit these links:Read articles on autism and neurodiversityWatch videos to teach yourself and find inspirationListen to podcasts to learn all about autismExplore books on autism, neurodiversity, and careExplore a packed library of autism resources and helpful toolsBook a 1 or 2 hour training course for you, your group, or your organisationSearch the Autism Info Center for ideas, advice and learning materialsCreate a free Autism Hospital Passport to make medical care easier!
