En este episodio nos adentramos en una dimensión tan esencial como olvidada de la recuperación neurológica: la sensibilidad. Exploramos con profundidad la neurofisiología de los sistemas sensoriales, los tipos de sensibilidad, las vías implicadas y los déficits somatosensoriales que pueden aparecer tras un ictus. Hablamos de evaluación clínica y neurofisiológica, de escalas, de estereognosia, de patrones exploratorios, y de la implicación cortical tras una lesión. Abordamos también las principales intervenciones terapéuticas, desde la estimulación eléctrica sensitiva (SAES) hasta el entrenamiento activo sensitivo, repasando la evidencia más actual y las claves para una rehabilitación sensitiva eficaz.

The garden in summer is at its fullest sensory delight and overwhelm – the peak of sunlight, growing hours, heat, and growth, ripening, and even rotting. This week, we revisit a BEST OF conversation that embraces this sublime sensuality from a variety of perspectives, in conversation with master naturalist Nancy Lawson.  Nancy is perhaps best known as "The Humane Gardener", the title of her first book, and her online signature. And a humane gardener she is. Nancy is a habitat consultant and founder of The Humane Gardener, LLC. She observes, researches, and pioneers creative wildlife-friendly landscaping methods in her own home habitat and for others. In other words – and in all senses of the phrase – Nancy puts her gardening where her words are, and words and action come together beautifully in her newest book, Wildscape, Trilling Chipmunks, Beckoning Blooms, Salty Butterflies, and other Sensory wonders of Nature.  Together this week, we delve into her newest research and reporting on the complexity and richness of the sensory life of other than human lives: from the botanical to the birds, bugs, mammals, amphibians other wildlife all around us. Wildscape is eye, ear, nose and heart opening! Listen in! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you for listening over the years, and we hope you'll continue to support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow and engage in even more conversations like these. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.

Presenter and model, Christine McGuinness, has thrown herself into dating for the first time since discovering she is neurodivergent. She reveals to Access All some of her autistic dating tips and tricks and talks about her new BBC podcast, Situationships. She also chats about campaigning for more accessible playgrounds for disabled and neurodiverse kids. When he heard we were chatting about dating, BBC journalist, Alex Taylor, rolled by. He recently declared on his social media that he's re-launching on the apps. He thinks they can really help disabled people get out there but admits juggling dates and carers can result in some very awkward situations. Plus Emma Tracey and Paul Carter debunk the rumour going around that singer Stevie Wonder, who recently gigged in the UK, isn't really blind, and try to decide whether he's the most famous disabled person in the world right now. This is a fun episode, but if you're Alex's mum, this one is not for you!

In this deliciously nerdy and insightful episode, we're joined by Sir Sublime—a self-proclaimed “lazy top,” kink toymaker, and connoisseur of all things rope, impact, and mindplay. Together, we unwrap the art and intention behind BDSM, diving into the nuances of dominance, the seduction of sensory play, and why best practices matter in the kink world. Whether you're a seasoned sadist or just kink-curious, Sir Sublime reminds us that "everyone kinks their own way"—and there's no one-size-fits-all approach to pleasure and power. We talk toys, technique, trust, and what it means to top without burning out. Along the way, we explore:     •    Why negotiation isn't just for boardrooms (but should still involve snacks)     •    How consent can be sexy, sacred, and sometimes sound like a well-prepped PowerPoint     •    And why aftercare might mean cuddles, cookies, or just not losing your rope scissors again From nerdy obsessions to sexy confessions, this episode is a playful, practical, and passionate look into the world of consensual kink.

In this episode, hosts Jordan James, Simon Scott, and special guest Sylvia James dive deep into your questions about the unspoken chaos of neurodivergent parenting. From the sensory nightmare of a UK heatwave to managing meltdowns caused by your own ND kids, this episode is as raw as it is relatable.Jordan and Sylvia open up about raising late-diagnosed autistic children, the trauma of childhood bullying, and how their own experiences as autistic adults shaped how they parent. They share lived experiences navigating:

Dr. Emily Levy is the founder and director of EBL Coaching, a specialized tutoring program that offers individualized one-on-one home, virtual, and on-site instruction using research-based, multi-sensory techniques. She is also the author of Strategies for Study Success, a 22-part student workbook series that teaches students strategies for test taking, note taking, reading comprehension, writing, summarizing, and executive functioning, along with the Flags and Stars Orton Gillingham student workbook series, which helps students develop their fundamental decoding and spelling skills. Additionally, she is the author of Flags and Stars Multi-Sensory Math, a multi-sensory math program that helps students develop a stronger understanding of core math concepts, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and fractions. These workbooks are currently used at schools nationwide.Takeaways: Multi-sensory learning techniques significantly enhance the academic performance of students with learning difficulties. Engaging multiple senses during learning creates a more effective educational experience for children with special needs. Personalized tutoring, especially in one-on-one settings, allows for tailored instruction that meets individual student needs. The importance of a structured approach in education cannot be overstated, as it helps students build mastery in various skills. Challenges in traditional education systems often necessitate external tutoring for students with specialized learning requirements. Empowerment through small achievements is crucial for building self-esteem in students with learning disabilities.

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott dive into the chaotic beauty of neurodivergent friendships. From the heartbreak of sensory overload to the emotional minefield of alexithymia and rejection sensitivity dysphoria, they unpack the complex layers of autistic–autistic relationships, misunderstanding ADHD traits, and the healing power of shared ND experience.

In this episode, we chat with Kyleigh Melville, a PhD candidate at the University of Edinburgh and experienced SEND educator, about the power and potential of multi-sensory environments in schools. Drawing on her research and frontline experience, Kyleigh explores how these spaces can support neurodivergent students, the importance of co-design and staff training, and provides some practical tips for getting started. The conversation also touches on LEGO-based therapy and why inclusive, student-informed practice is key to meaningful outcomes.

In this illuminating episode of 5 Minutes of Peace, we welcome special guest Will Johnson, author of The Radical Path of Somatic Dharma. Will invites us into a grounded, deeply embodied meditation that activates peace from the very center of your center.Through his guided practice, Will gently leads us to expand awareness across our three primary sensory fields—sound, sight, and body—and then unites them through the breath. With insights from the Buddha, Rumi, and mystic Emanuel Swedenborg, he reminds us that true peace is found not by escaping our body, but by breathing fully through it.This meditation is perfect for those seeking a somatic shift from tension and overthinking into presence, clarity, and calm. As Will says, “Feel yourself dissolving into peace.”Learn more about Will's work at www.embodiment.netAnd explore more meditations, Reiki treatments, and healing workshops at www.thepeaceroom.loveSubscribe and return each week for another moment of stillness on 5 Minutes of Peace, presented by The Peace Room, Boise.https://www.amazon.com/Radical-Path-Somatic-Dharma-Radiant/dp/B0CY9KJ28W

JEMS Managing Editor Jeff Frankel sits down with occupational therapist Bonnie Ekman and paramedic leader Alanna Badgley to explore sensory modulation therapy as a breakthrough tool for first responders' mental health.   Bonnie explains how engaging all eight senses helps regulate the nervous system, moving beyond traditional talk therapy when first responders are stuck in fight-or-flight activation.   Alana shares her personal experience and the positive feedback from EMS professionals who have benefited from sensory rooms designed to soothe hypervigilance and stress.   They discuss practical, budget-friendly ways departments can implement sensory modulation spaces, emphasizing low-cost solutions like colored lighting, calming sounds, and tactile tools.

Ever wonder how playful moments like peekaboo or a silly song can support meaningful progress in young children with autism? Here, we explore sensory social routines and how the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) uses them to build engagement, communication, and joint attention through everyday play. These simple, predictable routines can become powerful teaching tools when paired with a child's natural interests.We share what these routines are, why they work, and how we use them to follow a child's lead while embedding teaching moments. From chasing games to puzzle play, we offer real-life examples and practical tips to spark connection, shape behavior, and celebrate small wins at home or in therapy. With the right strategies, even the smallest interactions can lead to big developmental breakthroughs.What's Inside:An overview of the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM)How to use ESDM routines in teachingReal-life examples and practical tips for working with learnersMentioned In This Episode:HowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram Play-Based Tip Sheet Episode 106: ABA Assessments  

In this episode I explain how your vagus nerve—an extensive neural pathway linking your brain and body in both directions—powerfully regulates your mood, digestion, alertness and even certain food cravings, and I explain how you can activate certain vagus nerve pathways to improve your heart rate variability (HRV), a key marker of health and longevity. I also explain how to control vagal pathways to enhance your focus and alertness to improve learning and neuroplasticity. And I explain how your vagus nerve controls levels of serotonin in both your gut and brain, impacting your mood and emotional resilience and how to keep that pathway robust.

Hey Team! On today's episode, we're breaking down one of the most frustratingly simple yet hard ADHD challenges, eating, because come on, we have to do it every day, but also, we have to do it everyday. We've got a returning guest, Jackie Silver, a Registered Dietitian with a Masters of Health Science in Nutrition Communications. She's built her practice, Accessible Wellness, around making food and nourishment doable, even on the days when executive function is nowhere to be found. In our conversation, we dig into why eating with ADHD can be so difficult, from executive dysfunction to low appetite, forgotten meals, and food aversions. We also explore practical strategies for eating, managing dopamine-seeking snacking, handling picky eating, and finding low-effort meals that still meet at least some of those nutritional requirements. Plus, we talk shame, sensory preferences, and how to stop making mealtimes harder than they need to be.

When needed, you can try out mechanical eating, where you are eating on a schedule, regardless of hunger cues, to compensate for poor interoception or appetite suppression from meds. 2. Try creating a grab-and-go food list. Having a list of foods that are easy to prep, safe to eat, and require minimal effort (like string cheese, baby carrots, or pre-cooked rice packs) can help reduce friction when deciding what to eat. 3. Work on acknowledging emotional and sensory triggers for eating. Sometimes we crave specific foods because of their texture, taste, or comfort, rather than hunger. Recognizing the why behind the urge can help you make more aligned choices, and remember it's okay to fill those other needs as well. 4. Give yourself permission to eat without shame. There's nothing wrong with sticking with your safe foods when you need them. The idea that adults should eat a certain way can be unhelpful and ableist. Focus on doing what works best for you.

When we think of autism, ADHD, or even trauma, we often place them in separate boxes, as distinct diagnoses with different treatment paths. But what if the reality is far more connected? What if complex trauma itself is a form of neurodivergence? What if masking, sensory overwhelm, and dissociation are not flaws to be fixed, but intelligent adaptations of a nervous system doing its best to survive? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined by Dr. Megan Anna Neff, clinical psychologist, author of Self-Care for Autistic People, and co-host of the Divergent Conversations podcast. Dr. Neff sits down with Elisabeth and Jennifer for a powerful, eye-opening conversation about the deep overlap between autism, ADHD, complex PTSD, and sensory processing challenges and why embracing this intersection is key to healing and self-acceptance. Together, we explore how trauma shapes the neurodivergent brain, why so many autistic women remain undiagnosed, and how dissociation and emotional shutdowns are often rooted in sensory overload. Dr. Neff also shares her personal journey of late-diagnosed autism and ADHD, and the life-changing reframes that helped her make sense of her body and nervous system. This episode is not about pathologizing difference. It's about honoring the body's wisdom, reframing trauma as adaptation, and understanding why a nervous system-first approach to healing is essential. If you've struggled with masking, emotional dysregulation, chronic dissociation, or a lifetime of “being too much” or “not enough,” this conversation offers a compassionate, grounded lens to view your experience, and new possibilities for healing. Topics discussed in this episode: ● Masking: the hidden labor of social camouflage ● Why complex trauma is a form of neurodivergence ● Sensory trauma, sensory overload, and emotional shutdowns ● Dissociation as a protective nervous system response ● The gender gap in autism diagnosis and late identification ● How trauma and neurodivergence co-shape identity ● Reframing emotional expression and interoceptive deficits ● Why top-down cognitive strategies often fail without nervous system work ● Somatic and sensory tools for nervous system safety ● Why self-acceptance begins with honoring the body's adaptations Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: https://www.neurosomatic.com/leadership Learn more about Dr. Megan Anna Neff's work: Website: https://www.meganannaneff.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neurodivergent_insights/  Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the fall cohort now: https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

Jason drives up to the Skagit Valley to meet up with Shane "Showtime" Armstrong, Master Blender at Westland Distillery. The two walk around the warehouse tasting from a number of single casks and then head down to the Westland distillery in Seattle to spend some time in the sensory/blending room to share some of that experience with you, the listeners. This is an ultra geeky episode that gets into the nitty-gritty of what makes a single cask a single cask and what makes a cask of whisky better suited for a blending component.  ...as usual, have a seat, have a pour, and listen in. Unless you're driving. If you're driving, be smart and stay sober but be sure to listen into the conversation!

Summer is here—and with the heat, play, and sunshine comes a unique challenge for kids (and adults!) who struggle with interoception. In this episode, we explore what interoception is and why it's so important to pay attention during the summer months. We discuss how challenges like dehydration, overheating, and sun sensitivity can affect children with sensory needs and how parents and caregivers can better support them through practical strategies, products, and daily routines.We also share actionable tips for boosting interoceptive awareness, from mindfulness exercises to hydration reminders, and highlight summer-friendly tools like cooling vests, splash pads, and visual schedules.PLUS—we answer a thoughtful listener question about managing sensory seeking behaviors at home after school, and offer guidance for making sensory play more structured and less overwhelming.LINKSWe'd love to answer your questions on the podcast!
