Interoception for Us
Feeling our Way Through
A Summer for all the feels!
Have you heard about interoception but are not sure how it relates
to your work with neurodiverse children?
Interoception is the perception of the sensations that arise from inside of our bodies. It has been found to be impactful in autism, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, eating disorders and a host of other diagnoses. Interoception also has relevance in our understanding of emotions and trauma.
There are many ways to bring interoception to children but the best way to truly understand interoception is to investigate it for yourself!!! Interoception is a FEELING practice.
Are you someone who lives in your head?
Do you ruminate?
Do you have challenges with emotional eating, impulse control, pain, or social media?
Learning how to connect and read your own body signals may be the answer to many of the challenges that we face in our day to day lives. From this more connected place we can authentically offer interoceptive practices to children.
