Brianne takes a solo dump!

In this episode, Brianne talks about the occupational therapy tool called a "sensory diet". Brianne is not an occupational therapist, nor does she play one on TV- but she's an autistic peer support specialist who crafted her own sensory diet, to help with self regulation and meltdowns. A sensory diet is a highly customized plan, filled with positive sensory input, that can help a person's nervous system better handle the things they encounter every day.

Topics discussed include
- The concept and purpose of a sensory diet
- Who might find incorporating this tool helpful
- The 8 senses, and activities that provide that type of sensory input.
- Proactive Sensory Diet: Brianne walks you through hers she does daily
- Reactive Sensory Diet: Brianne walks you through hers
