Use Physical Inputs to Improve Regulation

Join this free video program designed to help you understand the concept of regulation in autism and how to support individuals in achieving a more regulated state using physical inputs. The program teaches you to recognize a regulated and a dysregulated state. One of the most common mistakes made by others interacting with the autistic is to rely too heavily on verbal prompts—phrases like "calm down" or "that's not reasonable"—which often are more dysregulating. Instead, this program focuses on using physical inputs, such as deep pressure, movement, or sensory supports, to create a more centered and regulated state. Once regulation is achieved, verbal communication becomes more successful. This practical program is perfect for parents, caregivers, and professionals looking to better understand and apply effective strategies for supporting autistic individuals in moments of distress or sensory overwhelm. It is also perfect for autistic individuals searching for ways to calm and center their nervous system.
