Welcome to Part 2 of the Sensory Processing and Adoptive Parenting episode. In Part 1, Dr. Laura Anderson shares why your child's sensory needs are important and how to identify sensory processing issues. Part 2 focuses on a deeper dive of how to make this work for you on a daily basis.Pause for a moment right now and consciously become aware of what you're seeing, hearing, touching, and tasting; what is in the background and how does it make you feel? For most, it is almost unconscious, but for children with unevenly developed sensory systems, they may be experiencing input from the world in ways that are different from your experience, and confusing for you and your children. This can have a major impact on child behavior. Sensory processing issues manifest in restlessness, defiance, eating rigidity, sleep problems, meltdowns, etc.Dr. Laura shares specific ways you can use your knowledge about sensory issues to get different results with kids and behaviors on a day to day basisWhat You Will Learn:Using what you learn about sensory issues to connect with your kidWays to see the patterns with your kids' sensory needsPrevention is the key to behavioral changeThe importance of understanding the who, what, where, when, and why factors when your kid acts outThe importance of understanding the who, what, where, when, and why factors when your kid is at their bestHow and why to build sensory activities into your dayWhat to do if upset and meltdowns are unavoidableResources:Triggers and Soothershttps://www.drlauraanderson.com/triggers-and-soothers?rq=triggersSensory Integration Global Networkhttps://www.siglobalnetwork.orgOut of Sync Child: Recognizing and Coping with Sensory Processing Disorderhttps://out-of-sync-child.com/books/out-of-sync-child/Making Sense of Sensory Integrationshttps://sensoryworld.com/product/making-sense-of-sensory-integration-cd/Answers to Questions Teachers Ask About Sensory Integrationshttps://out-of-sync-child.com/workbooks/answers-to-questions-teachers-ask-about-sensory-integration/https://www.drlauraanderson.com
