1 Proprioception
Using small muscle work out of tension can create a more aware sense of awareness that will create a less impactful sensory processing environment for you. Do this by doing simple proprioception exercises like, wall press ups, moving light objects like a dining chair or stack of books.
2 Soundsory
Soundsory is a headphone based skill development therapy it works on the fine, gross, and visual-motor skills in children leading to enhancements in handwriting and drawing, balance and posture, hand-eye coordination, and sports skills.
3 Sensory Room / Corner
Having a dedicated space in your home or room where you can create a sensory corner with lights and comfy pillows etc, will help you escape the busy over sensory world and help you stay calm. Tip Tip: Try work sensory time out into your daily routine.
4 Headphones / Sun Glasses
Lots of people use headphones and or sunglasses to help filter out some of the main causes of sensory overload in autistic individuals. This can be done by simply just warning headphones to block some of the noise out and use sunglasses to filter bright lights.
I’d love to know your thoughts on everything, please pop it in a comment down below if you have any and if you have any hacks you use that I have not mentioned. Follow @TheAspieWorld for more autism content.

When our son was little we would wrap him in a towel and make a "burrito", or simply give him deep pressure hugs. That helped him a lot. We made sure his bedroom was a safe space where he could feel comfortable and relaxed (and it still is), and we also made sure he had access to ear protection/noise blockers for outside if things got too much for him.
Now that I'm dealing with the fact that I'm an Aspie, too, I see how I've used those same things for myself over the years, not realizing why. Our whole house is a calm, comfy, safe place. I've always felt better after short, muscle strengthening type exercises and sometimes simply push against the wall to get the relaxing results I need. And sunglasses, sunglasses, sunglasses!! So many things about my life make sense now.
A tip for those with sensitivity to light: Try to find and buy light rope (I recommend orange to give a warm light during winter) and put it up along the edge of your ceiling. You will get a softer and a more even dispersed light across the room instead of the high concentrated light from a regular ceiling light. Use large Cable Staples to hold it. I recommend using it with remote switches. I have had no problem reading small print in the light but can be a bit difficult to see things like tiny screws when trying to fix electronic devices.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I second sunglasses(prescription or whatever) and headphones(tho low volume/noise cancellation for me). I don’t know if I had to the same sensory issues before I transitioned, due to brain damage, but I definitely benefit from headphones+sunglasses they help significantly cut down on my sensory issues. People find it weird that I always listen to music, mystery, or theory craft, and/or educational UA-cam’s stuffs while at work but that’s just me stimming and not thinking of the outside world from overloading me.
@Toby Mcguire I attempted suicide three times in the last few years due to a variety of reasons due to people and how they perceived me and my identity as a whole. Or that I was too detail oriented and then OCD was like it’s gotta be perfect one pc off and it threw my whole day off tonnes of issues. Insensitive employees I worked with and employers refusing to hire I dunno it was bound to happen. In those attempts part of my head was hit in a few places. And only reason I comprehend what had happened was me being analytical keeping a journal which I wrote in on a daily/weekly basis. And even then I suck at reading my own handwriting :’C
I have sensory processing disorder. My noise cancelling headphones really help with noise but also in the environment it blocks out light sensitivity and makes it so the environment doesn't seem chaotic and easier to deal with.
Noise canceling headphones have made my world so much better. That and having various music and audio apps so convenient. I was never really a headphone guy before smart phones.
Any tips for communicating your needs when you can’t clearly identify/explain the need.
I start off with HALT. Am I Hungry, Angry/Emotionally upset/Overloaded, Lonely, Tired/Thirsty. I can't remember who I stole that from but it's a good starting point.
Thats really nifty@@Diamondphobe
Better to get funny looks then to be distressed that's gold
I run into door frames, cabinets and stuff like that all the time 😅
wearing jewelry with SPD is already impressive.
I lovvvvveee my Loop ear plugs. Have em awesome colors and no one knows I have em in. Muffles loud noises and allows me hear people and things I need to.
I used to wear wireless noise canceling headphones EVERYWHERE. And then one at a time, only wore 1. And now I can go long times without wearing them. 😊
I have ASD, I'm not real sensitive to lights, but I am sensitive to noise! But I still wear sunglasses because I have trouble keeping eye contact, so the glasses I have, you can't see my eyes😂 so people can't tell that I'm bad at eye contact
These are awesome tips! I am in the fitness industry, and I’ve found my proprioception is stronger and more accurate when I’m actively exercising throughout the day. I’m going to build these exercises and the sensory corner into my routine!
Excellent tips! To add to the sunglasses and headphones tips:
FL-41 glasses (Axxon or Theraspecs) indoors instead of sunglasses. Still mutes the 🤬 too bright, wrong color light, but with none of the polarization that makes reading screens hard.
I started wearing them for migraines (life changing), but now I also wear them when I’m having a hard sensory day and they really help take the edge off that as well.
Sound wise, while I love my air pod pros, I’ve found “acoustic ear plugs” to be an awesome substitute when you don’t have / can’t use headphones. These are made for musicians and concert goers. So they don’t completely eliminate sound but they filter the harshest and loudest sounds. They are cheaper than noise cancelling headphones so you can keep extras stashed various places, and they are often less obvious than headphones/earbuds, which is nice if you are trying to look like you’re engaged in a social setting but are also trying to avoid having a melt down because it is just so 🤬 loud. My favorites lately have been from Eargasm or Dubs.
Scheduling chill out time is such a good tip!
This describes my life! Thanks!
That sounds fun to try
After experimenting with my sunglasses, here's something fascinating that I discovered.
I'm uber sensitive to bright light (especially the kind in stores & offices), so I'll often wear sunglasses. Also, wearing dark sunglasses make me feel "shielded" and less socially anxious because I don't have to make much eye contact.
BUT, here's where it gets interesting. I love to experiment, so I decided to swap my tinted lenses with clear ones that block out blue light/glare, and wear them into stores for a few weeks. What I discovered is that wearing the sunglasses with the clear lenses achieved the same result of feeling less socially anxious. It appears that the sunglasses frame subconscously made me feel "shielded", not just the dark lenses. I still need the dark lenses for those places with brighter light, but I thought this was fascinating.
This is all great advice. I can see how that would be helpful for a lot of folks. I myself have some pretty intense sensory processing triggers, so wearing sunglasses is very tricky. They have to be feather light and super soft, or no bueno. I can’t do things on, or in my ears, either. Lol Sometimes I really annoy myself. 🤦🏻♀️.
Have a great day. 🌻
Good video
Thank yiu!!
Number 3 i need to start doing that
Great video. Do you have an hacks for taking medication that is triggering because of texture aversion (pills) or terrible taste (liquid)?
Dear Alex
I think the out of focus camera works great here 🤣
Sensory issues is an adhd thing too. I spend a lot of the day with headphones on. I also wear Flare Audio Calmers too. I use the night ones as they're softer and more comfortable. I can find constant chatter difficult and loud noises. I'm the same with bright lights. I spend yh3 evenings with low lights etc.
Haha!!! I tried flare but I prefer loop
Loved this video! Sensory processing is such an important topic. I’m a big fan of Soundsory headset and system. Really great for improving auditory processing skills too. Did you know that Soundsory was designed in collaboration with Tomatis? .
Hi can you axpand on what improvements you've personally had with them?
@@kanaler5924 Every client I work with has had varied benefits, from increased language, to increased oral motor coordination for speech production or daily living skills that require coordination of fine/gross motor coordination, and improved ability to follow directions. Some have reported better sleep, balance, spatial awareness and improvement with toilet training. I would say it depends on the individual. .
There can be a wide variety of speech, language, auditory and behavioral improvements observed because the combination of movement and music targets the vestibular system.
Hope this info was helpful!
The sunglasses thing has always been problematic for me, since I have worn glasses since I was about 10, but in high school, I wound up having a pair of glasses with transition lenses. Didn't really think about how helpful they were until I wound up having to get new glasses that didn't have transition lenses, and then... yikes!
Alex, your a funny guy.
New sub great video 😃 "look at him go" I'm dead 💀
Hahaha thanks my editor Alex thinks he’s like the funniest 😂😂😂
What’s treatment option for 7 years boy suffer from under-responsiveness:
No taste of food
Didn’t get hungry
Pica
Refuse use elevator and prefer stair
Take long time during meal
Thank you
I just got tested for autism. They asked me a bunch of questions about my social life and the way I was raised. Then asked me to say similarities between 2 random things like an anchor and fence post. Then they made me draw some shapes and point to some shapes. Then I had to use cubes to build shapes on a paper in a certain time frame.. Then I had to answer trivia questions that were increasingly more difficult. Any ideas what all that was?
They tested your IQ
I’m a vault of useless knowledge. 😂 My relatives have taken the stack of trivia questions and started drilling me to see if I missed one. Needless to say, they were looking in the box for missed cards. Lol.
@@epicwave7060 why?
@@TheLisaGate lol 🤣 they asked me if I knew who random people were. Like some guy who I think was a revolutionary in India from years ago.. idk his name lol the one that baffled me the most is the similarity between never and always. Or the similarity between allowing and restraining.. It's a neat thought experiment. Never and always are both finite and constant. To truly never do something has to be consistent same with always. Allowing and restraining are both things people in authority will do. But you also do it to yourself. Allowing and restraining yourself from something like chocolate or video games. It was fun but gave me a headache
@Toby Mcguire that's why idk why they gave it to me
I have some textures that I can't avoid in day to day life but I struggle when having to use them
I wore sunglasses inside for the entire last year of high school. I have chronic migraines and was trying to find a medication that helped at the time, but nothing did. The only thing that helped was wearing the sunglasses all the time
I don't wear sunglasses, the brightness of the lights around me aren't normally an issue, it is the busyness of an environment that bothers me. It makes going into stores so difficult.
I don't use headphones to filter noise, I have a couple sets of Decibullz custom molded earplugs with their attenuation filter. They dial down the volume without distorting the sounds. Most people think that they are earbuds, so they aren't as obvious as big headphones or earprotection muffs can be. If I swap to the regular earplugs pieces instead of the filter, I can wear them swimming and they'll protect me from all the noise and help keep my ears dry.
I need transition lenses. I wear glasses and I cant see far. But I do believe sunglasses is a very good idea.
Thank you I’ve been struggling sm lately!! I feel like autistic ppl are just other worldly we don’t belong in this realm lol
I'm almost certain I don't have autism...but I do have ocd.
Just the idea of wearing jeans, or anything tight, especially around the thighs gives me anxiety. I can do it if I absolutely need to, but it's so distracting, it's hard to be present in a conversation or situation. It's like a percentage of my brain is constantly aware of the feeling and it's really annoying.
I've also always struggled with my pockets not being completely flat, or my underwear not being completely symmetrical with my joggers (all I wear) waistband and I'm always readjusting. I hide my ocd pretty well, and am totally functional, but yeah, just wanted to add my experience in case anyone could relate and offer advice lol.
Good video mate.
My problems are I can’t touch greasy or oily stuff. I am continually layering sheets and blankets on my bed if I feel the slightest bit of grit. It’s horrible. And lights. I HATE LIGHTS! Edit: I have Misophonia
I have been diagnosed with sensory processing disorder. Still trying to find someone to diagnose me with autism.
Are you in or near Virginia by chance?
@@anonymousinc6330 no, NH
What if I wear glasses? Are there sunglasses that fit over them? I have yet to find any and been wearing glasses since 2nd grade so this is tricky for me because lights and the sun can be so problematic for me.
You can buy prescription sunglasses
Also, there are sunglass attachments for prescription eyeglasses.
Did Soundsary sponsor this post and pay for the product placement or are you independently recommending it because you actually use it? It’s important to be transparent when you’re recommending products.
I wear hats and bandanas for my issue! But why can't I function in hoods!? I get off balance if I try to even walk!
Hi I’m looking for help for my son Owen he’s still not diagnosed but he’s really struggling after a very difficult 2 years and missing his last 3 months of his final year at school leading up to his GSE’s due to his sensory problems he did manage to go In for exams in isolation but with such a difficult year he sadly failed his maths and English luckily he found a very empathetic tutor who excepted onto a Esports course but this means also resitting maths and English due to the high volume of teens who are resitting he’s ended up in really busy classes which is impossible for him to cope with the college have just said he needs to give the tutor the nod and leave but this isn’t practical long term plus it means failing his GSE or possibly being rejected from the course can you please advise very very desperate dad looking for help
What about soundsory was actually improving for you?
Im so sensitive none of these tips work for me going to an occupational therapist is sth worth to try though i an undiagnosed spd never did myself but of course spd is a spectrum everyone's different
Wait… IM WAS THE RAINBOW LOOP ALL MY 12 YEARS AND I WAS MASKING!? WAAAAA-
I could manage maybe to get three hours of no music time while I was heading to a job interview but then got triggered and had to listen to music. Some drunk guy tried to kidnap me had to call the cops now I don't want to go back outside I'm tired of it. I have auditory processing disorder. I'm hoping aliens abduct me soon I'm over people and noise. Sounds more chill on an aircraft away from people. lol!
Very interesting, never knew my bruises were related lol
@Toby Mcguire from knocking into things as he mentioned in the video
@Toby Mcguire more perception problems, thinking I have more space than I do as he talks about
@Toby Mcguire of course, that’s what the videos about isn’t it. Did you not watch it then?
@Toby Mcguire well that’s because it’s a given. He spoke about mysterious bruises from banging into things which is what I was responding to if it wasn’t clear. I think it stems from the microbiome in the gut which is linked directly to the brain and when unbalanced causes inflammation on the brain. However, the jury is still out on what exactly it’s all about. Why do you think running is related? Clearly didn’t hold Forrest Gump back
@Toby Mcguire oh I see, well I’m always running as I also have adhd so always late for things and don’t have that problem. I only bruise from bumping into things whilst walking actually, so not sure about that theory
How does the sensory reacts when children play games, and are exposed to bright colors, and lots of awful sounds.
with neuralink i could really do diffrent hacks with my brain
May I just say that, these videos keep combining SPD and Autism while in fact they are two different disorders. You can have SPD and not be Autistic.
