  5. A common thing when you start exploring sensory stuff is that you find all this stuff that you’ve been shutting out, you’ve been working to dissociate from, to ignore, to numb, or to cancel out in various ways.

    And it just feels like everything is just more annoying rather than helping. 1/3

  7. Occasionally, I’ll wear a couple of my shirts that have collars, but I’m constantly tugging at them all day long. And I hate anything touching my neck, but I kept buying shirts with collars. 1/3

  8. Your body knows things.

    Getting in touch with my physical sensations helps me make decisions, because my body gets more tense when I think about one option and more relaxed when I think about another. 1/2

  9. When emotions come up, it can help to ask yourself what you're noticing in your body right then. That starts connecting "hey, there's an emotional experience here" with the physical sensations connected to it. 1/2

  10. If physical sensations and emotions seem non-relevant to you, like they did to me for most of my life, here’s an explanation. 1/5

  11. 2nd Event scheduled for Sunday, April 12th!

    #Ireland - #ToyLibrary launches #Sensory #SwapAndPlay events for children with additional needs

    By avondhupress - April 10, 2026

    "A social enterprise set up to help reduce and recycle plastic toys, has launched sensory swap and play events for children with additional needs.

    "The first such event from The Toy Library, took place in the Aula Maxima in University College Cork (UCC) with a second event scheduled for the Kilnamanagh Family Resource Centre in #Dublin on Sunday, April 12th.

    "The Toy Library is the country’s first digital toy-sharing platform and has hosted swap and play events around the country for the past 18 months. It has successfully reduced the amount of plastic toys being disposed of with figures recorded at the end of 2025 showing 4.78 tonnes of plastic have been saved so far.

    "The sensory events offer families and children with additional needs a safe and welcoming play space with structured layouts, quieter zones and access to carefully selected developmental and sensory toys. The initiative was set up in response to feedback from parents within the Toy Library community."

  14. Hello, Lovely Peeps! I saw this last night & thought it was brilliant - am posting in case it can help anyone! 😃

    During the last year of Najma Omar’s doctoral program in occupational therapy, her prof asked them to think about tools that hadn’t yet been invented to help people — but should exist.

    She thought about her sister, who struggled with finding a hijab that could help with her noise sensitivity without adding a lot of weight or increasing pressure around her ears, which headphones or earmuffs did, and developed the 'SereniHijab' (Serenity Hijab), made of lightweight fabric, and padding inserted into the hijab covers the ears just enough that loud sounds aren’t as overwhelming.

    'For Najma, the SereniHijab isn’t just a business. It’s a mission.

    “Islam teaches ease, compassion, accommodation and meeting people where they are at. Designing a hijab that considers sensory needs is an extension of that. It’s honoring faith while also honoring someone’s sensory needs and neurology,” she said.

    “It’s making sure that all women like my sister don’t have to choose between their comfort and then their identity.” '

    Expected to launch in May, the first drop ... 'will have 100 pieces, including 50 pull-on hijabs & 50 headcap and scarf sets. After that, the Sereni team will offer pre-order availability.'

  15. I absolutely despise clothes shopping. There are so many sensory things that are wrong with it. The fluorescent lights, the changing clothes, I barely can stand changing clothes twice a day in my own home, nevermind lots of clothes changes in a row where most of those clothes that I put on are going to have sensory issues in one way or another.
