You've talked to 10 therapists. Tried 20 strategies. And your child still goes from calm to crisis in 30 seconds - for reasons no-one understands.
Understanding a body requires that we understand the sensory information coming in. And Dr. Dana Johnson - OT, PhD, and founder of the Spellers Center - tells us that there are not 5 but 8 senses.
Dana joins Non Linear Learning for the 3rd time to talk about interoception: the eighth sense, the one almost nobody gets taught, and the one that might explain what's been happening in front of you all along.
Listen along to learn:
Why your child's meltdown appears so sudden
Why self-injury can be the body trying to feel itself, not defiance
Why "tell me how you feel" is an impossible question for someone who's never reliably felt anything to name
Why professionals push back on all of this — and what actually shifts a paradigm
