This is great information- and so true in my son's case! Co Regulating sponges in deed!
A look into a special needs mom's everyday life of raising 3 kids- when one of them won't (can't) leave the house. - This blog was started 15 years ago. It is a window into our world and our journey to supporting our son. Who now has the capacity to not only leave our house (on his terms) but to engage in many other activities of life with joy! This is a story about hope!

Sensory tip of the day- by Angie Voss, OTR "Understanding your child's sensory signals"
***Sensory Tip of the Day!*** Sensory kids are little co-regulating sponges. They sense and "absorb" the energy around them to a much greater extent than you might think. Become acutely aware of YOUR state of regulation...
1. stress level
2. tone of voice
3. volume and speed of your voice
4. your state of mind (are you truly present in the moment?)
5. your breathing patterns
All of these and many more can create anxiety and/or dysregulation for your child. Learn more at my very first online sensory coaching session! ~Angie Voss, OTR
