Free article to learn more: Understanding the Differences: Conventional Medical Care, Functional Medicine, and Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic CareDr. Tony Ebel explores the three main approaches to children's healthcare: conventional medicine, functional medicine, and neurologically focused chiropractic care. Dr. Ebel explains why he believes that while each approach has its place, neurologically focused chiropractic care addresses the deepest root causes of many chronic childhood conditions by targeting nervous system dysfunction. Drawing from nearly two decades of clinical experience, he discusses how modern healthcare approaches still miss foundational issues and why addressing nervous system dysregulation can be the missing piece many families are searching for.[00:00:00] Introduction to Three Healthcare ApproachesOverview of conventional medicine, functional medicine, and Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic CareDr. Ebel introduces the concept that root causes go deeper than genetics and gut health[00:03:00] Limitations of Conventional MedicineCritique of conventional pediatric care's approach to chronic illnessThe specialist "merry-go-round" many families experience without finding answersHow the conventional medical system correlates with increasing rates of chronic illness[00:05:00] The Value and Limitations of Functional MedicineFunctional medicine's systems-based approach examining gut health, microbiome, and immune functionBenefits of diet changes, detoxes, and supplementsWhy even with extensive natural protocols, children may still struggle with chronic conditions[00:08:00] The Nervous System as the Master ControllerHow the nervous system controls all other systemsConnection between nervous system dysfunction and common conditions (autism, ADHD, sensory issues)The "perfect storm concept" explaining how early stressors affect nervous system development[00:11:00] Neurologically Focused Chiropractic Care DifferentiatorsThe three unique aspects: deeper questioning, neurological INSiGHT scans, and personalized care plansHow subluxation and nervous system dysregulation can only be addressed through chiropractic careFinding the missing link when other approaches haven't fully resolved health issues[00:13:00] Integrating All Approaches for Optimal Health-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Ever wonder why your child can't sit still during lessons? Why they melt down when they're wearing certain clothes? Or why they're suddenly screaming at you when they haven't eaten in hours? The answer might lie in sensory processing—a critical yet often overlooked component of learning and behavior.In this illuminating conversation, occupational therapist Sarah Collins unpacks how our sensory systems influence every aspect of learning and daily life. Beyond the familiar five senses we all know, she explains how our vestibular system (balance), proprioception (body awareness), and interoception (internal body signals) create the foundation for successful learning and emotional regulation.Sarah reveals the surprising connection between body awareness and emotion regulation, backed by research showing that children who struggle to sense what's happening in their bodies often have difficulty managing their emotions. This knowledge transforms how we understand "difficult" behaviors—what looks like defiance or lack of focus might actually be sensory overwhelm.The homeschooling environment offers unique opportunities to accommodate sensory needs. Instead of forcing children to adapt to one-size-fits-all learning environments, parents can create flexible spaces that support each child's sensory profile. Maybe your child comprehends better while gently rocking, standing, or even upside down! As Sarah explains, "calm" doesn't necessarily mean "still"—it means the nervous system is regulated enough to process information effectively.Most powerfully, Sarah shares practical strategies for identifying sensory needs and adapting environments accordingly. From morning routines that incorporate movement to sensory-friendly workspaces, these approaches can dramatically improve learning outcomes. She also discusses how to balance competing sensory needs when siblings have different—sometimes opposite—requirements for successful learning.Ready to transform your homeschool experience?

Discover practical tips for designing with sensory considerations, color psychology, and material selection.Designing with Sensory Awareness: Creating Spaces for NeurodiversityHow Interior Designer Michelle Canny Approaches Sensory-Friendly DesignWhen it comes to interior design, we often focus on aesthetics—the colors, patterns, and styles that make a space visually appealing. But what if design could go deeper, addressing how spaces make us feel on a sensory level?In this insightful episode of Design Dialogues, host Beth Bieske speaks with Michelle Canny of Michelle Canny Interiors about her unique approach to designing spaces with neurodiversity in mind, particularly for her son who is on the autism spectrum.From Marketing to Mindful Design: Michelle's JourneyMichelle's path to interior design wasn't traditional. With a background in marketing and advertising, she found herself drawn to design after becoming disillusioned with agency life."I didn't want to sell myself to sell a product," Michelle explains. "I also didn't want to work 80 hours for peanuts."After enrolling in the International School of Color and Design in Sydney, Michelle discovered her passion for creating spaces that not only look beautiful but also feel right on a sensory level. This interest became personal when designing for her neurodivergent son.Understanding Sensory Design for NeurodiversityFor Michelle, designing for neurodiversity means considering how all aspects of a space affect the senses—not just sight, but touch, sound, and even smell.The Importance of Functionality First"When you're designing for people who may be neurodivergent—autistic, ADHD, any type of people that may have some form of impairment or disability—it has to be first and foremost functional," Michelle emphasizes.This focus on functionality doesn't mean sacrificing beauty, but rather ensuring that the space works on a practical level before addressing aesthetics.Involving Users in the Design ProcessOne of the most powerful aspects of Michelle's approach is how she involves her son in the selection process:"I got my son Angus to touch [the materials]. And then I asked him how he felt about it. Sometimes he would say, 'Mom, no, I don't like that tile. It's too reflective.' I may not have even perceived it that way, but he did."This collaborative approach ensures that the final design truly meets the sensory needs of the person who will be using the space.Practical Design Considerations for Sensory SensitivityMichelle shares several key considerations when designing for neurodiversity:Color Psychology and Selection"Certain colors have a stimulating effect. So more warmer colors will always have more of a stimulating effect on our senses. So there's sort of the reds and the yellows and because they're more seen as bright colors or they're more seen as like emotion evoking colors."For spaces meant to be calming, Michelle recommends:Neutral base colorsBlues and greensLight graysAvoiding overly warm or bright colors that can be stimulatingMaterial Selection and TextureTexture plays a crucial role in how neurodivergent individuals interact with a space:"For him, touch is a very big thing. So textures in a home, it has a massive impact on our bodies. And the types of fabrics we choose play a big part in how we feel or experience a space."Michelle recommends:Natural fabrics like cotton, bamboo, and linen for breathabilityAvoiding synthetic materials that can cause sensory discomfortConsidering weighted blankets for comfort and securityUsing plush rugs that provide tactile comfortSound ManagementAcoustic considerations are often overlooked in traditional design but are crucial for neurodivergent individuals:"To reduce the noise in his room, he has blackout curtains and sheers so that he can get the natural light."Other sound management strategies include:Hardwood doors to block noise more effectively than hollow doorsSoft furnishings to absorb soundConsidering the acoustic properties of flooring materialsLighting Considerations"Natural light is a massive impact as well in bringing wellness into a home."Michelle emphasizes the importance of:Maximizing natural light where possibleUsing warmer lighting rather than cool, harsh lightingAvoiding highly reflective surfaces that can create glareProviding options for different lighting levelsThe Emotional Impact of Sensory-Aware DesignOne of the most powerful aspects of Michelle's approach is how she connects design choices to emotional well-being:"The way in which you feel in a space is completely dictated by the senses and the way in which it makes you feel. When you walk into a space, if it was a really obnoxious color, like a really loud, loud color, it could actually give you a bit of a headache."This understanding that design affects not just how a space looks but how it makes people feel is at the heart of sensory-aware design.Using the Emotions Wheel for Design ConversationsMichelle uses the emotions wheel as a tool to help her son articulate his reactions to different design elements:"Often we can experience a certain amount of emotions. For example, you know, I know I'm happy. I know I'm sad. I know I'm joyful. I know I'm angry and they're just base basics. But what we don't often, you know, we're not able to articulate is the broader spectrum of emotions."This approach can be valuable for designers working with all clients, not just those who are neurodivergent, as it helps people express their emotional responses to spaces more precisely.Creating Sensory Balance in Any HomeWhile Michelle's approach is particularly valuable for neurodivergent individuals, the principles of sensory-aware design can benefit everyone:Natural Elements and Biophilic Design"Introducing more biophilic design, so introducing more plants into the space."Connecting to nature through design helps create spaces that feel calming and grounded.Sound Management for Wellbeing"I will often have things such as water sounds or rain sounds on an app for him to help him soothe and calm."Considering the soundscape of a space—whether through sound-absorbing materials or introducing pleasant natural sounds—can significantly impact how a space feels.Material Selection for ComfortChoosing materials based on how they feel, not just how they look, creates spaces that are physically comfortable:"Anything that's sort of breathable and airy because it gets quite hot. In the winter he likes more sort of flannelette or warmer style blankets, something that has a bit of weight to it, which gives him that sense of protection and feeling safeness and soothed."The Universal Appeal of Sensory DesignWhat makes Michelle's approach so valuable is that while it addresses specific needs for neurodivergent individuals, the principles benefit everyone:"People forget that, you know, lighting, sound, smell, taste, I mean, we don't taste interior, but even when you think about when you go, say, for example, to an open home and they have the smell of fresh coffee, they do that intentionally."As Beth notes during the conversation, "This is what a good designer should be doing for all of their clients. Because really how, so much of our job is actually like, there is the aesthetic, obviously. But it is like we want our clients to walk in the front door and just go, I'm home, it's my sanctuary."Practical Tips for Implementing Sensory-Aware DesignFor designers looking to incorporate these principles into their practice, Michelle offers several practical approaches:Involve Users in Material SelectionHave clients touch and interact with materials before making final selections.Consider All SensesThink beyond the visual to how a space sounds, feels, and even smells.Use the Emotions WheelHelp clients articulate their emotional responses to different design elements.Balance Stimulation and CalmCreate spaces with varying sensory levels to accommodate different needs and moods.Prioritize Natural ElementsIncorporate natural materials, plants, and natural light whenever possible.The Future of Inclusive DesignAs awareness of neurodiversity continues to grow, the design industry has an opportunity to create more inclusive spaces that work for people with diverse sensory needs.Michelle's approach demonstrates that designing with sensory awareness doesn't mean sacrificing beauty or style—it simply means considering how design choices affect all aspects of the human experience.By incorporating these principles, designers can create spaces that not only look beautiful but also support the emotional and sensory wellbeing of everyone who uses them.Whether you're designing for a neurodivergent client or simply want to create more thoughtful, comfortable spaces, the principles of sensory-aware design offer valuable insights for creating interiors that truly enhance quality of life.

Spectrum Sounds is a revolutionary restorative audio experience specifically designed to support cognitive wellness for individuals on the autism spectrum. This Vibe Drop harnesses the science of neuroacoustics to create a transformative listening journey that promotes neural synchrony and sensory integration—addressing core processing challenges often experienced with ASD.At the foundation of Spectrum Sounds is our proprietary 40Hz gamma frequency technology, scientifically validated to enhance brain connectivity and communication between brain regions. This core frequency is complemented by an intricate layering of binaural beats (3Hz, 8Hz in C, and 10Hz in F) that gently guide the brain into beneficial theta and alpha states associated with deep peace and relaxed attention—states that can help reduce sensory overwhelm and anxiety.Drawing from ancestral intelligence and modern neuroscience, Spectrum Sounds incorporates elements inspired by established methodologies like the Tomatis Method and The Listening Program®, approaches that have demonstrated effectiveness in enhancing auditory processing for individuals with autism.Unlike traditional ASD therapies focusing on isolated skills, Spectrum Sounds addresses fundamental sensory integration through targeted auditory stimulation. The careful orchestration of 528Hz, 531Hz, and precise binaural frequencies strengthens functional connectivity between auditory cortices and subcortical structures, potentially improving communication abilities and social engagement.The composition follows a gentle rhythmic pattern that promotes creative neuroplasticity – the brain's natural ability to form new neural pathways. This process may help individuals on the spectrum develop improved sensory processing, emotional regulation, and attention skills over time.Recommended use: Listen with quality headphones for 15-20 minutes daily in a comfortable, low-stimulation environment. Consistent use may support greater sensory resilience and cognitive clarity.Send us a textSupport the show

Did you know that 95% of children with ADHD may be missing one critical nutrient that affects mood, sleep, sensory processing, and picky eating? In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay, ADHD health practitioner and founder of the ADHD Thrive Institute, takes a deep dive into zinc deficiency—a common but often overlooked factor in ADHD symptoms. She explains how low zinc disrupts dopamine, worsens hyperactivity, and even creates a vicious cycle of picky eating by altering taste perception. Dana also breaks down simple ways to check for zinc deficiency, including an easy at-home taste test, and shares the best food sources and supplements to restore zinc balance. Plus, she explains the zinc-copper connection, why high copper levels can lead to more meltdowns, and how to test your child's zinc levels accurately. If you want to help your child thrive naturally, this episode is packed with actionable insights and science-backed strategies to get started!

"Zinc affects mood swings, picky eating, sleep, and sensory processing, yet most parents have no idea their child is deficient." "When zinc is low, copper levels rise, burning through dopamine and leading to more hyperactivity, mood swings, and meltdowns." "Low zinc levels are linked to ADHD symptoms, impulsivity, and even sensory issues like difficulty processing sounds and textures." "If your child gets sick more often than others, has white spots on their nails, or struggles with taste sensitivity, zinc deficiency could be the cause." "The Zinc Assay Taste Test is a quick way to check for zinc deficiency—if it tastes like water, your child likely needs more zinc!" "Zinc plays a crucial role in dopamine production, brain function, and emotional regulation—yet most doctors won't even test for it properly." "Testing zinc plasma, not zinc serum, is the most accurate way to check for a true zinc deficiency." "My favorite zinc supplement is Pure Encapsulations Zinc Liquid—gentle, well-absorbed, and easy to adjust." "I challenge parents to try the at-home zinc test and DM me their results—let's see just how many kids are actually zinc deficient!" Dana Kay Resources:

In this episode, co-hosts Peterson Toscano (he/him) and Sweet Miche (they/them) explore best practices for welcoming and supporting neurodivergent individuals in Quaker worship and educational settings. Poet and writer Kate Fox shares insights from her article "A Place of Unmasking," drawing connections between early Quakers' spiritual practices and contemporary understandings of neurodiversity. Kate discusses her experience of Quaker meeting as a space where she can authentically be herself, free from the pressures of masking neurodivergent traits. Kate Fox raises essential questions: How can places of worship and schools better accommodate neurodivergent individuals? How do sensory practices, like stimming, help with spiritual grounding and concentration? We also explore Julia Watts Belser's book, Loving Our Own Bones, Disability Wisdom, and the Spiritual Subversiveness of Knowing Ourselves Whole, which invites readers to reconsider disability—not as something needing fixing, but as an integral part of human diversity, rich with spiritual wisdom and power.

Why doesn't the MESENCEPHALON further subdivide into larger regions of the brain?In this episode, we will expand on the neurulation time and focus on the brain formation, spotlighting the proencephalon, mesencephalon, and rhombencephalon, which emerge around days 22–23 of embryonic life. The proencephalon (forebrain) splits into the telencephalon—think cerebral hemispheres for cognition—and the diencephalon, home to the thalamus and hypothalamus for sensory and hormonal control. Meanwhile, the rhombencephalon (hindbrain) divides into the metencephalon (pons and cerebellum, key for movement) and myelencephalon (medulla, handling [mostly] autonomic essentials like breathing). The mesencephalon stands out as a non-subdividing relay hub. The mesencephalon offers tremendous insights into the Autistic phenotype with its roles in biasing the living organism's attention to the environment.Autism and the Womb https://youtu.be/NOVp4mIrougAutism, Neurulation, & Embryogenesis https://youtu.be/TXkc93uGNuwAutism & Eye Movements https://youtu.be/1amB5e9qzg4Autism & Sensory Processing Part 1 https://youtu.be/HPvwvtu5hB4Autism & Sensory Processing Part 2 https://youtu.be/iWy9RligzicDaylight Computer Company https://daylightcomputer.comuse "autism" in the discount code for $25 coupon.This is the future of tech.Chroma Light Therapy https://getchroma.couse "autism" for a 10% discount,0:00 Daylight Computer Company04:22 Neuralation and Brain Development05:09 Maternal Factors and Biomarkers (Tyrosine, Hypothyroidism, etc.)06:46 Tryptophan and Its Role in Embryogenesis08:34 Environmental Insults and Toxins09:19 Embryogenesis and Brain Formation (Proencephalon, Mesencephalon, Rhombencephalon10:43 Telencephalon10:57 Diencephalon12:34 Rhombencephalon12:52 Metencephalon13:35 Myelencephalon15:12 Evolutionary Perspective of the Mesencephalon21:39 Chroma Light Devices24:48 Mesencephalon's Role in Motor Control, Sensory Processing, and Autism; 27:12 Extrapyramidal motor system; Substantia Nigra, Red Nucleus30:11 Additional Nuclei of the Midbrain; Ocular Motor Nuclei; Edingher-Westphal; Trochlear nerve 31:58 Paraaqueductal Gray (PAG), "Retard Strength" and Its Role in Pain, Behaviors and Autism; "Freezing" in Flight, Fight, & Freeze 36:00 Eye Movements; learning & Neuroplasticity; Motor Planning, Proprioception, Language and Speech 38:20 Wrap UpX: https://x.com/rps47586Hopp: https://www.hopp.bio/fromthespectrumYT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

An episode that uncovers the intimate side of autism.Here's what's in store for today's episode: * Our hosts explore autistic intimacy in this episode, beginning with the unique challenges of dating as an autistic person.* There are countless preconceived notions about autistic people and intimacy—that's why we've invited autistic sex and relationship therapist Kate McNulty to join us for this episode!* Autistic adults have only recently begun speaking out and being taken somewhat seriously. Before this, parents were the ones speaking for their autistic children, which has left autistic sexuality largely unexplored and misunderstood.* It seems that autism parents focus on teaching life skills—but understanding sexuality and relationships is one too.* Much of the lack of research into autistic sexuality is, unfortunately, rooted in eugenics.* On the other hand, 5% of the autistic community is asexual, meaning they experience intimacy in a different way.* We also dive into the idea of couples therapy and how it can support autistic relationship dynamics.* In addition, we discuss the unfortunate reality of masking in relationships—how many autistic individuals feel pressured to suppress their true selves to meet societal or partner expectations, and the emotional toll this can take over time.* Autistic people tend to be much more accepting of unconventional relationship structures—an interesting contrast, given that they also highly value sameness and consistency.* We also explore how SPIN sharing—bonding over special interests—can be a crucial component of autistic intimacy.* In addition to this, we also discuss the diversity of autistic intimacy and the strong presence of LGBTQ individuals within the community.* Sensory overwhelm can be a real challenge in the bedroom for autistic individuals, so we discuss effective strategies for managing it.* Plus, we talk about how to create a sensory-friendly bedroom environment to help facilitate a more comfortable and intimate experience.* There's nothing sexier in an autistic relationship dynamic than a partner who is accommodating and flexible.* Finally, we explore autistic joy and the profound impact it has on our intimate relationships. We discuss how embracing the things that bring us joy—whether it's special interests, shared experiences, or moments of connection—can deepen emotional bonds and create a more authentic, fulfilling dynamic in relationships.“The majority of the people that I've worked with are adults. I've worked with some teenagers who are now in their 20's. And every once in awhile, I get a parent who signs their teenager or 20 something or 40 something up for therapy. And they want their autistic child to have ‘life skills'. But when you come into relationships and sex, all of a sudden, it's like ‘my God, no, we can't do that!”, because they're still under the impression that their kid who has trouble making food or getting a job or something is never going to have a healthy relationship.” - Matt “It is a major turn-on to see someone very intensely sorting and categorizing their rock collection.” - Matt“We want to do all we can to make the bedroom a sensory-friendly environment. That oftentimes means getting clutter out of the way, making sure the sheets are clean, getting rid of any fragrances from laundry or soap or body products, anything that's gonna interfere. It's important to be candid with one another about that and not take it personally.” - Kate“There are some things about autistic nervous systems that are unlikely to change. We don't become desensitized. We can try to be flexible and match our partner's desires, but we can only take it so far. And that's a can't, not a won't.” - Kate “I will confirm that there's nothing sexier than a flexible partner.” - Matt“Part of autistic intimacy is knowing that there's room for all kinds of imaginative play, sharing weird fantasies or quirky ideas, and being in that space together, that psychological space you share of imagination and anything being possible.” - MattDid you enjoy this episode? We explored the intersection of autism with various aspects of life, diving into the unique experiences of autistic intimacy and relationships.

Ever wonder why you or your child struggle with stress, meltdowns, or big emotions? It all comes down to the nervous system—the control center for how we think, feel, and react.In this episode of Enlightening Motherhood, neurodivergent parent coach Emily Hamblin sits down with nervous system coach Leah Davidson to explore how our nervous system influences parenting, kids' behavior, and emotional regulation—especially in neurodivergent families.Understanding how the nervous system works can transform your parenting journey—helping you feel calmer, more connected, and more in control.

For today's episode, we expand on Autism and Sensory Processing. We return to the mesencephalon—a brainstem region with superior and inferior colliculi—as a critical hub for sensory integration and attention bias. We cover four scientific articles, starting with Marco et al. (2011), which uses EEGs, MEGs, and fMRIs to reveal autism's auditory processing inconsistencies (e.g., delayed N100/M100 cortical responses), tactile hypersensitivity from overactive receptors, and visual processing quirks like reduced fusiform gyrus activation for faces. Russo et al. then explore brainstem-level deficits, showing autistic children's auditory brainstem responses (ABR) to speech syllables like "DA" exhibit poor neural synchrony and phase locking, especially in noise, due to disrupted wave V, A, D, F timing—linking these to language impairments. These findings point to biological roots, including denser neocortical mini-columns (30-40 vs. 50-60 microns in controls) and cerebellar Purkinje cell loss, impairing local processing and long-range connectivity.The episode continues with Leekam et al. (2007), confirming over 90% of autistic individuals have multi-modal sensory abnormalities—hypo- and hypersensitivity tied to serotonin and GABA dysregulation—persisting across life, while Tomchek and Dunn (2007) note 95% prevalence via caregiver reports, hinting at neural pathway disruptions. At some point, we need to acknowledge the mesencephalon's embryological stasis as one of four neural cell types, suggesting its evolutionary role in sensory modulation is key to Autism's biology. These articles collectively highlight altered neural circuitry, from brainstem to cortex, and biases us to remaining within ourselves. Remember, the biology that gives us Autism allows us to be comfortable within ourselves.

For today's episode, we discuss Autism and sensory processing. The episode expands on the concept of the mesencephalon (midbrain), touching on the superior and inferior colliculi, key regions that help extract and integrate sensory information. The role of melanin in sensory processing is highlighted, as it aids in signal transfer and increases efficiency in sensory organs, including the eyes, ears, and skin. The episode also connects these concepts to autism, noting that individuals with Autism often experience both hypersensitivity and hyposensitivity to sensory stimuli, affecting their interaction with the environment.The episode also dives into the biological foundations of sensory perception, focusing on the role of melanopsin and other chromophores in light absorption and how they influence wakefulness and sleep cycles. Additionally, we cover the auditory system, specifically how melanin in the cochlea contributes to hearing and how auditory processing can become overwhelmed in individuals with Autism, leading to sensory overload. The discussion then extends to the role of melanin in other systems, such as the gastrointestinal tract, and its connection to energy production and sensory perception. By exploring the pathophysiology of Autism at an early developmental stage, the episode emphasizes the need to investigate sensory processing and its integration across the nervous system to better understand Autism.Role of semiconductivity and ion transport in the electrical conduction of melanin https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3384144/Dr. Jack Kruse: QUANTUM ENGINEERING #53: WHY IS MELANIN ALWAYS FOUND BETWEEN YOUR SENSES & THE ENVIRONMENT? https://www.patreon.com/posts/quantum-53-why-83720421Dr. Jack Kruse: QUANTUM ENGINEERING #45: AUTISM & MELANIN/MELANOPSIN: A MIGRATION PROBLEM https://www.patreon.com/c/DrJackKruse/posts00:00 Autism and Sensory Processing02:31 Mesencephalon's Role; Melanopsin; Chromophores05:02 Melanin in Sensory Systems07:33 Light and Quantum Biology10:04 Environmental Impact on Health; Hypo and Hypersensitivity12:35 Energy and Mitochondria15:06 Embryogenesis and Autism Origins; Neuralation, Neuroepithelial Cells17:37 Autism Research19:05 Reviews/Ratings & Contact InfoX: https://x.com/rps47586Hopp: https://www.hopp.bio/fromthespectrumYT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

LIVE Free Webinar on Jan. 20! Sign up here: https://harkla.co/pages/balanced-brain-webinar-registration In this episode, we dive into the connection between sensory processing and executive function. We begin by defining sensory processing and its vital role in our daily lives. From the basic five senses of touch, taste, sight, sound, and smell, to the more complex senses of vestibular, proprioception, and interoception, we explore how each sense helps us navigate the world and regulate our physical and emotional responses. Next, we define executive function and its core components. We explain how these skills are essential for tasks like planning, organizing, decision-making, and self-regulation. We examine how difficulties with sensory processing—whether it's over-responsiveness, under-responsiveness, or sensory-seeking behaviors—can disrupt focus, attention, impulse control, and emotional regulation. These challenges can make it harder to plan, organize, and complete tasks, impacting children and adults both at school, work, and in social settings. Finally we share practical tips for supporting individuals with sensory processing difficulties in improving executive function. Learn how creating sensory-friendly environments, offering sensory breaks, breaking tasks into smaller steps, and incorporating calming sensory activities can help regulate emotions and enhance self-control.  LINKS We'd love to answer your questions on the podcast!

Ever felt overwhelmed by the sheer range of sensory experiences your child navigates daily? On this episode of the Brainy Moms podcast, Dr. Amy and Sandy discuss the world of sensory processing with Dr. Eva Lassey, a doctor of physical therapy and the visionary behind Dr. Sensory. Through her personal and professional journey, Dr. Lassey breaks down the often-confusing landscape of sensory processing disorders, helping us discern between sensory seekers and avoiders. Her insights equip parents and caregivers with the tools needed to support and understand their children's unique sensory needs, challenging traditional perceptions of neurodiversity and the idea of "normal."Join us as we explore the impact of sensory processing issues on motor skills development and social interactions in children. Dr. Lassey shares practical strategies for fostering physical development through simple, engaging activities that can easily be incorporated into everyday routines. From bear walks to crab crawls, we talk about the crucial role of movement and play, especially in an age where technology sometimes hinders our children's physical growth. Learn how the right balance of core strength, coordination, and active play can transform a child's confidence and ability to connect with peers.Finally, we discuss the benefits of sensory tools and fidget toys in managing focus and anxiety, featuring insights from experts like neuroscientist Dr. Christina Ledbetter. Whether it's weighted blankets or chewable necklaces, these tools offer emotional comfort and can ground the mind, enhancing concentration, and providing a sense of calm. Dr. Lassey emphasizes the importance of trial and error to find the perfect fit for individual sensory needs, illustrating how these aids can create a supportive environment for children and adults alike. Our episode concludes with a heartfelt discussion on gratitude and the ongoing journey of supporting families in navigating sensory challenges.CONNECT WITH US: Website: www.TheBrainyMoms.com Email: info@TheBrainyMoms.com Social Media: @TheBrainyMoms Our sponsor's website: www.LearningRx.comSandy's TikTok: @TheBrainTrainerLadyDr. Amy's brand new IG: @DrAmySaysGraceDr. Amy's website: www.AmyMoorePhD.com

Relationships are challenging.In this episode, we explore some of the Autistic phenotypes challenges in relationships. We discuss symptoms from criteria A are external and criteria B are internal, and how criteria B complicates the symptoms in criteria A. In addition, Autism is a comparison to social-norms, and this is a problem. Some environments/relationships discuss include peer-to-peer, romantic, and parent-child. To begin, we explain the mechanisms behind the speaker-receiver and the use of conveying speech in socialness.Before we begin, we cover a brief explanation of Speaker-Receiver and human communication.

In this episode of Ask Dr. Tony, Dr. Tony Ebel explains neurological soft signs - the subtle yet critical indicators that show a child's nervous system is beginning to heal, even before major symptoms improve. He outlines six key signs parents should monitor, from improved posture and muscle tone to better sensory processing, while explaining why these foundational changes must precede improvements in conditions like autism, ADHD, and seizures. Throughout the discussion, Dr. Tony challenges conventional medical approaches that focus on immediate symptom relief, instead presenting a framework for understanding true neurological healing that emphasizes the importance of sequential improvement and proper nervous system foundation before expecting changes in brain-based symptoms.[00:02:00] - Understanding the Context of HealingDifference between medical and neurological healing approachesWhy conventional symptom-based measurements can be misleading[00:05:00] - The Importance of Proper SequencingWhy foundational changes must happen before brain-based improvementsIntroduction to neurological soft signs concept[00:09:00] - Redefining HealingWhy immediate symptom relief isn't always the best indicator of healing[00:13:00] - The Heart-Brain ConnectionBalancing emotional desires with clinical realityUnderstanding parent expectations versus the healing process[00:21:00] - Introduction to Neurological Soft SignsDefinition and importanceWhy they precede major symptom changes[00:25:00] - The Six Key Neurological Soft Signs:[00:28:00] Better Posture, Muscle Tone, and GaitImportance of motor functionUnderstanding hypertonicity and hypotonicity[00:30:00] Improved Sleep PatternsSleep as an indicator of nervous system functionImportance for neurological healing[00:32:00] Digestive FunctionThe connection between the nervous system and digestionSigns of improving gut function[00:36:00] Respiratory and Immune FunctionRelationship between the immune system and nervous systemImportance of proper breathing patterns[00:41:00] Sensory Processing and Behavioral RegulationReduced sensory overloadImproved emotional regulation[00:48:00] - Clinical Assessment ProcessHow practitioners evaluate neurological soft signsRole of insight scans[00:52:00] - The Levels of Progress TrackingPre/post adjustment changesDay-to-day trackingInsight scansNeurological soft signsMajor symptom changesEpisode referenced that covers detoxing/retracing-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In this episode, we discuss Autism and the Default Mode Network. According to Lisa Feldman-Barrett, the Default Mode Network has many names because it has been discovered, named, rediscovered, and renamed many times. I do not disagree with the Science regarding Autism and the Default Mode Network. However, I disagree with the Interpretation of the Data. This IS our Default; our preferred state; the core of the Autistic Phenotype.After listening to this episode and understanding B.3, you can understand MOST of Autism. The only reason you cannot understand ALL of Autism from these two episodes is the amount of Phenotypes branching off of B.3 and our Default Mode. Autism IS preference for ALONENESS and SAMENESS. This minimizes sensations and distractions that interfere with our internal world. This state is NOT abnormal, how society interferes with it makes it abnormal.If you want more Autistics to ACHIEVE, then understand your interaction, interference, and interpretation of what YOU think Autism is provides the delta of how much we are prevented in life. This, of course, becomes slightly different the more profound the Autistic Phenotype is with that specific person.In this episode, we will explore the different brain regions and the goals of these regions as it relates to our phenotypes. We will get into some "Thinking in Picture" and thinking styles. This will be a good time because of a future guest on From the Spectrum Podcast discussing Autism and Creativity.

For highly sensitive people (HSPs), the intensity of the world often feels magnified. Their heightened sensitivity makes them highly empathetic and deeply attuned to others' emotions. This allows them to form meaningful, compassionate connections. However, it can also lead to overwhelm. Everyday stimuli—like sounds, touch, smells, textures, and colors—can be particularly dysregulating for HSPs. This is why understanding where we fall on the sensitivity spectrum is crucial. By recognizing how we process sensory input, we can learn to regulate our experiences and harness our gifts, rather than suppressing them for the sake of coping. In today's episode, hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer discuss the subjectivity of sensory experiences—how they're shaped, how they influence our overall health, and why two people can experience the same environment very differently. They also introduce NSI tools, which help manage overwhelm when sensory input becomes too intense. Finally, Elisabeth and Jennifer explore the behaviors that arise from sensory mismatches, and how high sensitivity influences these responses. While high sensitivity may feel both like a gift and a curse, at Trauma Rewired, we believe it can be transformed into a powerful asset. With NSI tools, anyone can expand their capacity for life and share their unique gifts with the world—free from shame or discomfort. Tune in to learn more about how you can harness your sensitivity and live more fully. Topics discussed in this episode:   How our sensory experience impacts our overall health What is sensory processing disorder? Different ways we try and regulate sensory inputs What is a highly sensitive person? Is it possible to change your sensitivity level? How sensory information is processed in the brain Why it's important  to train the interoceptive system for accuracy and awareness Sensitivity is an evolutionarily selective trait and an adaptation to trauma What are behavioral activation and inhibition systems?

"Teaching children about sensory processing in a way they understand can help them navigate their emotions without shame." - - - Do you know why hunger makes you angry? Do your kids know why (without feeling shame)? Are your children (or you) ever overstimulated or understimulated? In this encore episode of "Enlightening Motherhood," Emily Hamblin delves into the fascinating world of sensory processing and its impact on emotions. Discover how understanding the eight senses can help you and your kids manage big feelings better. Learn practical tips and expert insights to transform challenging behaviors and enjoy a more peaceful parenting experience. Join us for a deep dive into understanding the crucial connection between sensory processing and emotional regulation. - - -

Does your kid experience MEGA meltdowns? Do their emotions seem all over the place - Up one minute down the next? Do they seem more sensitive to things? Lights are too bright, music too loud, smells too strong, tags annoying, sock seams send them crying to their room just as you're trying to get out the door? This can be a sign of SPD or sensory processing difficulties. Or perhaps they are sensory seeking and they are very rough, they touch everything trailing their hand behind them as they walk, they climb on every piece of furniture, they're loud and intense! They may even eat things that aren't food on purpose!  In this 2 part series we learn what our 8 main senses are and how signals can be interrupted and therefore cause difficulties in the way our childrens perceive and interact with their environment. We can learn ways to help support our little ones when they find their surroundings overwhelming or when they are seeking out stimuli. This is an area that is not widely spoken about but I am passionate to bring our attention to it as there is much we can do to mitigate the effects and help support those healthy neural pathways develop! Early intervention is key! So find out more by listening in. _______________________________________________________________________ UPDATE* Angela is now accepting new clients, book an appointment by heading to www.busbynaturopathics.com.au  and use the book now button or by clicking here Busby Naturopathics - Book appointment (cliniko.com)   Thanks for listening.

This is a little prequel to a coming 2 part series on Sensory Processing Difficulties .. something I am becoming very passionate about sharing with every parent I can.. as it can explain some of the recurring behaviours that may have baffled or exhausted you. Whether it is constant emotional dysreglation, or being overly excited, rough or agreesive through to being scared, anxious, withdrawn.. these can all be symptoms of sesnory processing difficulties. Theres also the more obvious ones of sensativily to sounds, lights, touch, smells or tastes.. or perhaps seeking these sensory inputs out!!  Unfortunately most professionals, paediatritians, OTs, Psychologists, are not educated to understand the signs and symptoms of this disorder and look for it in our child that present with these troubles. They may be diagnosed with a variety of other conditions while this still lies under the surface not being treated.  When we get in and intervene early we can create fantastic outcomes with dramatic improvements in all the above mentioned areas. So if this sounds like it could apply to you or your family please listen to this trailer and the coming 2 episodes to empower yourself to identify and treat sensory difficulties in yourself or you child!   ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ UPDATE* Angela is now offering in clinic appointments as well as online, book an appointment by heading to www.busbynaturopathics.com.au  and use the book now button or by clicking here Busby Naturopathics - Book appointment (cliniko.com)   Thanks for listening.
