Caregivers ask me all the time … how can I teach my loved ones skills to soothe themselves, stop a meltdown, or regulate themselves. Understanding the sensory system is key to answering those questions and you can get some ideas on how to do that with my guest this week, Jessica Sinarski. We first met Jessica in episode #099, Insight on Trauma, Attachment, and Sensory Systems. She returns to talk about her upcoming book aimed at normalizing sensory processing differences and helping kids understand their sensory systems.
We talk about her beginnings in work with trauma and resilience, the sensory system and why our kids get big feelings, how Riley the Brave came to be, and why stories are effective as teaching tools.
While this book isn’t about kids with FASD, it is a book that will help kids with FASD and their parents and caregivers. I think you will find Jessica has taken a subject that many adults don’t understand and put it in a format that will reach kids and their parents.
