Sensory Processing
This happening to us all every moment.
Our brain makes sense of what our senses are telling us.
![Page 3: Sensory Detectives - Amazon Web Servicessmartfuse.s3.amazonaws.com/d36a5b9401a45774d9f9785f017b88b9/... · Put fingers near mouth, eye, ... input same, processing different, output](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b14d5e47f8b9a66508c5481/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Our Processor
Our central nervous system (CNS) is our processor.
Sensations come from outside and inside our body.
o Our CNS analyses the sensation:
where it comes from,
what information it contains,
how intense it is,
what to do.
A response is made
![Page 4: Sensory Detectives - Amazon Web Servicessmartfuse.s3.amazonaws.com/d36a5b9401a45774d9f9785f017b88b9/... · Put fingers near mouth, eye, ... input same, processing different, output](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b14d5e47f8b9a66508c5481/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Our CNS is like a computer
Input
Computer processes data and controls a response
output

Our Outputs
Behaviours:
Everything we do
Everything we feel
Everything we think

Where does input come from?
Visual system (sight) Auditory system (hearing) Tactile system (touch) Vestibular system (balance and
movement) Proprioception (joints and muscles) Olfactory system (smell) Gustatory system (taste) Introception (internal organs) CNS

Are we all the same?
We all process sensation in a slightly different way because our processors (CNS) are all slightly different.
Sensory differences.
We all feel, think and behave in slightly different ways.
What are you sensory preferences!

Dysfunction
Some peoples processors are not slightly different they are very different.
Their sensory difference are much more extreme.
When people experience big sensory differences, then there are big differences in the way they feel, think and behave.
Think of the computer: input same, processing different, output different!

Generic strategies
These will help anyone who is in a state of anxiety or loosing control.
They help to sooth and regulate a dysregulated brain

What can I do?
Be a sensory detective.
What sensation is causing a problem? Can it be removed/ reduced?
What sensation are they seeking? Dis it causing a problem? If so, what can replace it?
What sensation do they need? Sensory breaks/diets.

language
Do not try to reason with a child who ‘survival’ mode
Keep language to a minimum
Keep language unambiguous and simple
Suggest options rather than question
Wait

Auditory
Tone of voice
Play calming music
Play alerting music (be careful not to over arouse!)
![Page 31: Sensory Detectives - Amazon Web Servicessmartfuse.s3.amazonaws.com/d36a5b9401a45774d9f9785f017b88b9/... · Put fingers near mouth, eye, ... input same, processing different, output](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b14d5e47f8b9a66508c5481/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Sensory strategies
Sensation from the joints and muscles are calming to an over aroused brain
Move, carry, push, pull, jump!
Deeper pressure touch (take care with child protection!): Massage, bean bags, blankets, teddies.
Vibration: vibrating toys, toothbrush, cushions
![Page 32: Sensory Detectives - Amazon Web Servicessmartfuse.s3.amazonaws.com/d36a5b9401a45774d9f9785f017b88b9/... · Put fingers near mouth, eye, ... input same, processing different, output](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b14d5e47f8b9a66508c5481/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Sensory strategies continued
Safe haven: work station, tent, quiet room
Oral; chewing, sucking
Low arousal environment – reduce the stimulation!
Remember: You are part of the environment
![Page 33: Sensory Detectives - Amazon Web Servicessmartfuse.s3.amazonaws.com/d36a5b9401a45774d9f9785f017b88b9/... · Put fingers near mouth, eye, ... input same, processing different, output](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022518/5b14d5e47f8b9a66508c5481/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
A final message, a final challenge:
“—he is not the boss of his own body, and he is out of control. His life is full of uncertainties and obstacles.”
“We all need to know that someone applauds our strengths, understands our weaknesses, and honours our individuality. With your help (he/she) can
become in sync with the world.”
Carol Stock Kranowitz, ‘The Out of Sync child’
