Channel: The Sensory Projects
Date: 04/11/2020

Sensory-being is a form of accessible mindfulness practice that can be shared with people regardless of their ability, disability or neurodivergence. This is a little sneak preview of The Sensory Projects Sensory-being online workshop.

Sensory-being is a powerful way to share mindfulness with people for whom verbally guided practice is inaccessible.
Sensory-being supports mental wellbeing and resilience, helping to combat stress, anxiety and depression.
Sharing sensory-being enhances two way communication across barriers of disability and neurodivergence.
Sensory-being can also impact social behaviour and physical health in ways that are especially relevant to people with complex disabilities or neurodivergent conditions.

This workshop will:
• Introduce you to sensory-being
• Look at what objects, sensations and locations are most likely to inspire sensory-being.
• Take you step by step through the practice of sharing sensory-being.
• Explore interoception, neuroception and polyvagal theory in relation to sensory-being.
• Discuss some of the amazing implications and possibilities opened up by sensory-being     
        practice with regards to health and social behaviour.

The workshop will teach you how to share sensory-being and explore some of the hidden benefits of practicing sensory-being, including:

Physical Health
Mental Wellbeing
Communication
Emotional regulation
Social skills
Productivity
Engagement
