Let's notice our body's impact on thinking to help our autistic graduates feel safer

Thursday, May 2, 2024 • Duration 19:07

Are shutdowns and meltdowns voluntary? Or are they our body’s way of managing our brain?

Holly Bridges asserts that a shutdown or meltdown isn't willful, it's the nervous system that has learned a safety response to pain and fear.

Let’s get aware of the body's impact on thinking so our autistic graduates can navigate life better.

Here's my summary of Holly Bridge's theory and experience behind her Autism Refame Therapy.

As parents of autistic graduates, we can teach people with autism how to feel calm in their bodies so they connect better with all their systems including social engagement.

When we attune to which body-based calming activities help them get their nervous system centered, we can encourage them to practice those actions regularly. They'll feel better more often and may be able to negotiate life with more comfort.

When they refuse help...now what?

Tuesday, April 2, 2024 • Duration 18:25

Why is avoidance such a common way we deal with life? First, let's recognize that we all refuse help.

For example, it took me a year to complete the 24-hour urine test my doctor recommended because...well, it sounded so gross. I didn't want to do it. Now that I've done it, I've learned how to strengthen my body, in this case to keep my bones strong.

Recently, one of my graduates struggled getting and keeping a good job. So I found help, we got him set up, and then he stopped attending meetings.

Why does this happen and what can we do? Because, let's face it, in these situations we must focus on what WE can do. We know we can't change anyone else but us and change takes work.

In this video I offer:

1 What autistic people NEED (not want) that those of us who love them can help them create,

2 Fifteen ways that I've found work to get through resistance, and

3 Eight ways I know don't work.

Alarms hurt so we avoid them. We distract ourselves (often on screens) so we don't feel their pain.

Heal Anxiety For Good

Monday, November 27, 2023 • Duration 11:51

In his book, Anxiety Rx, Dr. Russell Kennedy describes how he cured his anxiety in his 50s without pharmaceuticals or therapy, because those didn't work for him. He believes that, "to truly overcome anxiety, we must address both the mind and the body."

I've seen our autistic graduates experience chronic anxiety that gets in the way of outsmarting struggles and increasing independence. It seems that neither pharmaceuticals nor therapy gives them lasting relief. What can be done?

Here's the first video in a series that takes what I've learned from Dr. Kennedy and other teachers to suggest a path to heal anxiety for good.

It's from Susan Jeffers, whose book, "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway" inspires me every day. It has sold more than 15 million copies. It's dynamite.

Why we attack when we're stressed

Monday, November 6, 2023 • Duration 05:21

I've noticed that I sometimes attack others when I'm stressed and in defense mode. I've seen others in my family do the same thing. What's going on?

We put others down to make ourselves feel better. One-up is the opposite of one-down. It's what we do when we're stressed and our self-esteem is fragile. When we act like a child.

Terry Real calls it grandiosity in his recent book, US: Getting Past You and Me to Build a Better Relationship. He argues that psychology has done a pretty good job helping us build up our self-esteem when we feel one-down. But it has ignored the other end of the continuum when we attack to feel one-up.

Here's a quick episode that not only explains why we one-up but also gives us a way to handle ourselves and our loved ones when we or they attack.
