You two are awesome
are there any resources available in the UK?
Sensory processing disorder is your thing and yet you record a video with highly distracting noise going on in the room like a window air conditioner. I can't view this video.
Amazing.
This warms my heart and gives us hope for our autistic daughter, who has Pitt-Hopkins Syndrome. Great job parents!❤👏🏾
I'd love a transcript of this presentation
Thank you 💚💚💚
My 11yr old daughter has had a chronic dry cough for years now, since November she had strep 3 times, h influenza and now rsv, she is having a sever problem wearing all types of clothes causing her to make twitch motions, she can’t wear a bra because it drives her crazy , only certain clothes she can wear which is very limited and then they are an issue, now when she showers her hands swell up then when the swelling goes down there’s a slight dry rash, her cough/throat clearing is all day throughout the day. Me and my wife are loosing our minds, we’ve been to so many doctors and no one can figure it out! Any help would be great!
Having just worked through a lot of trauma related to my relationship with my mum a new thing has come to light for me. Just how emotionally reactive I am to sound and how 40yrs of judgement has taken it's toll. I avoid doing anything in case I experience sensory overload because of the associated shame that I feel about the emotions it triggers. I don't know if I have autism, however I have read that alexithymia and spd can exasperate each other. I hope that I can find a way to make this better, it makes my life very miserable and in the Uk, it seems like nobody really cares and its nigh on impossible to get an accurate diagnosis of anything. Just "anxiety and depression " here have some CBT 😢
Can this cause chronic pain in adults.
This sounds so much like me. 😢
The background music kinda defeats this topic… whomever made that decision. It wasn’t a great one, no offense. The music was unnecessary especially for the demographic of audience who would be your watchers… 🤷🏽♀️🥴
Hi, thank you for this. How can I get the full video?
While I wouldn't go so far as to compare sensory issues to being black or gay, I ABSOLUTELY agree with Ruth that people are quite insensitive when it comes to respecting others' sensory boundaries! Playing loud music, smoking in non-smoking areas (believe me, I work in hospitality, I know!), etc. Thank you for sharing your perspective, Ruth! ❤
How do you handle a 3 year old that is out of control with hitting and throwing that has been diagnosed with SPD? We shy away from yelling or spanking him but time out etc doesn’t work with him but just trying to change a diaper, clothes, getting in the bath, getting out of the bath etc are a nightmare.
This was me (and some of my now friends). Mental and physical health destroyed and nearly gave up on life a few times. I believe we need to integrate sensory approaches with trauma recovery for adults. Is this something STAR provides?
I am late discovered Autistic and ADHD (50 years old now). I have had problems with this for as long as I can remember, but did not know that what I was experiencing was not "normal". And it got worse with age, and especially when I got seriously burnt out. But I struggle with both not feeling what goes on in my body, and feeling some things to much. And it can be the same thing, but on different dayes or different settings.

I wanna open up a charity that helps late talkers say their first words. The charity will also let late talkers know that they are loved as much as children who are able to speak.
So many videos out therw BUT NOT A SINGLE ONE THAT HELPS WITH WHAT TO DO.
Unable to comprehend... music...
Ironically I found it hard to watch this as the background music was interfering with my ability to concentrate on the voice. It would be good if you could upload them without the background music.
Background music is not needed especially on this subject
It’s so beyond distracting for someone with sensory processing issues.
Does delaying the starting of formal school by a year benefit a child with sensory disorder? The child is bright but seems to have relatively mild sensory disorder Thank you for you videos
How can I get the treatment I need through Star Institute? Thank you :)
I am autistic and I do speak. But I've always felt that words are not my first language. And many times I would rather not talk. I see more and more videos of parents celebrating that they have found ways to get their autistic child to speak. And I feel we may be doing not only a disservice to these children but harm. I understand that parents want their children to speak so badly. They want them to communicate verbally, they want to hear them say "I love you" out loud and yes, they want them to be "normal". But this may not be what your child wants. Everyone has the need to communicate. But it's wrong of us to force a child to communicate through speech if they don't wish to or are not ready. It's done through ABA, speech therapy and all kinds of persuasion because society believes that's what people do, speak. So, once again we teach the child to mask, to be normal because that's what they have to be, right? Wrong! Follow your child's lead, enter their world. Maybe it's too overwhelming to speak, maybe it's simply not their language but for whatever reason, it's not our right to tell someone who to be.
Thanks.
This is a very insightful and helpful discussion, and I'm flabbergasted that it hasn't had more views and likes.Your course, Kieran, also sounds like it is extremely important in regards to changing the narrative on autism. Please keep up the great work both of you!
This is day one of having the mini trampoline. I got it because of the benefits I hear it has for the lymphatic system which is said to help kill cancer and because I want to loose a little belly fat and tone and hopefully avoid any injury. I am going to get my kids on it to help with mood, get them moving and I'm thinking it may help with my son's scalp psoriasis. If it helps to detox the body and reduce inflammation I don't see why it wouldn't work! Thank you for your video and sharing the benefits you found because of the mini trampoline. Blessings!
I can’t stand the feeling of seams or any collar on any shirt. It takes around an hour to motivate myself to get dressed, but when I do it’s usually the same thing over and over because it’s the only thing I can tolerate. It makes it impossible to have a normal life
I have both lol my child likely has both, he's a toddler currently showing signs of spd, and he can't pay attention for crap lol
So well-spoken and informative! Thank you!
I learned more great reasons to rebound from you! I have had one for many years...I get on daily. Love it!
My daughter is 2 & 1/2 and doesn't eat. Like at all. She's in feeding therapy but she won't eat. How could I discuss this with her Dr more. I don't feel like anyone has any answers for me. She literally doesn't eat ANYTHING she gags.
THIS DID NOT SAYMUCH ABOUT THE BRAIN GROWTH AS IHOPED
"PromoSM" 👊
Autism spd IBS OCD CFS fybromyalgia took to 43 to find out I have Asperger's hsd because if pain the SPD is fybromyalgia
This is apparently before this young lady joined the African American community.
Do you know if Neuro (cerebral dysplasia, cyst and DVM) or spinal bump (told not concerning) concerns can be helped with rebounding? May sound silly but to us really curious if theres any health benefits. Ped neuro says try what ever and see if it bothers then stop.
Thanks guys for this. I generally feel really alone with my SPD etc so things like this are very helpful 👍❤️🙏
Your herbs has work wonders in my family. Thanks for the help Dr Oyalo for saving my son from autism spectrum with your herbs. Your herbs is the best.
This was an extremely helpful video, thank you so much for posting this! I am a volunteer for Outdoor Kids Occupational Therapy, and this video is part of our training materials. I come from a background of both SpEd and ABA, and many of the approaches to managing challenging behaviors that I learned through these experiences left me uncomfortable, uncertain if I made the right choice, and occasionally ethically compromised. I really love how this approach focuses on validating the child's thoughts and emotions, meeting them where they are, and really helping them through the process to a place where they can reflect and repair. Thank you so much for making this!
So the institute has to play music which was very annoying
How can I get the presentation please?
Excellent video. Its frustrating being diagnosed later in life and finding potent evidence of sensory overload throughout our school days. I hope future kids get more help, it just felt like I was going mad as a youth.
I couldn't find the link to the adults group 😢
ps I think you literally did solve al the worlds problems - my head is spinning but in a good way !
can you upload this with louder speaking volume as I'm struggling to pick out your voices from the humming in the background xx
someone with sensory proccesing may be different than us . that is kind of color of life. not a disorder. evolution and variation. you need them in order to solve unknown mysteries of universe. i tell you a disorder which actually really a disorder .. it is to imitate crowds which entirely irrational
