Sensory Overload: Understanding and Managing Its Impact⭐

Sensory overload occurs when the brain becomes overwhelmed by sensory input, leading to discomfort. It affects many individuals, especially those with autism, ADHD, or PTSD. Common triggers include loud sounds, uncomfortable textures, bright lights, strong smells, and intense flavours.

Managing sensory overload involves creating a sensory-friendly environment, developing routines, using sensory tools, and practicing mindfulness. For educators, understanding how to support children facing sensory overload is essential.

Learn more about how BeReady's SEND Teaching Assistant Programme equips educators with the skills to support sensory needs and create inclusive environments.
