Information on Training - Please read carefully before booking
We ask that all parents/carers attend our Practical Understanding of Autism programme before advancing through other training offered by PAS. This also includes parents/carers who have been registered for some time but have not attended Practical Understanding of Autism within the previous 2-3 years, so we can ensure that everyone has the most up to date thinking and approach for supporting our children and young people.
Interoception is our body's system that tells us how we are feeling on the inside, so we can respond to our needs.
Interoception allows us to experience many body sensations including hunger, dry mouth, racing heart, needing the bathroom and also lets us know how we are feeling in terms of our emotions and how we feel based on the body signals we are aware of.
This information session will introduce Interoception as a sensory system and why, if we have a poor interoceptive understanding, and the impact this might have on us if we are not able to feel what is happening in our bodies well or if our body sensations are so overwhelming we don't know how to process and respond.
