Have you ever considered the possibility that, in many instances, “ADHD” might actually be the result of a dysregulated sensory system?
Tune in to hear our in-depth conversation about:
- How neurological processing issues mimic or complicate ADHD and Autism. Why the “broken” medical system overlooks sensory issues.
- The difference between “Attention Deficit” and “Divided Attention.”
- Practical tools like Irlen spectral filters and FM systems.
- How to distinguish between a “behavior problem” and a survival response.
I have learned that you cannot reason with the senses. It’s critical to understand this fact and seek out ways to help regulate the sensory system. There are many tools out there to help… but first, it’s essential to look beyond the symptoms, such as lack of attention and an overall sense of well-being, and seek out the root cause of the problem.
