The Sensory Diet

the sensory diet

regulation before productivity, always.

not a food plan. a sensory diet is the steady stream of input your body needs across a day to stay regulated: pressure, movement, sound, light, texture, smell, taste, and the signals from inside your body. the term comes from occupational therapy.

for ADHD brains it matters double, because we swing between under and over stimulated fast. this kit helps you design yours.

what's included

• what a sensory diet is, and your eight sensory systems
• a sensory profile, seeking or protecting, and a right-now check
• dial up, dial down, and a builder with 64 inputs sorted into dial up, anchors and dial down
• daily anchors, a schedule with calendar reminders
• overload first aid, an overload kit and a plan
• your spaces, a room-by-room audit, plus plans for out in the world
• clothes and textures, a checklist for the things that set you off
• a sensory log that finds your patterns, and a wind-down builder
• hormones and seasons, making it stick with a fortnightly review reminder
• when to see an OT, and support in Australia

who it's for

anyone who swings between flat and wired without warning. anyone who wants their own dials known in advance, not figured out mid-meltdown. anyone who's been told to "just calm down" and needs an actual, personal plan instead.
