Kelly Mahler: Interoception
Ever heard of a "sixth sense"? While we're familiar with the five senses, there's another crucial sense that often gets overlooked: interoception. This week, we sit down with licensed Occupational Therapist Kelly Mahler to explore the fascinating world of interoception – our body's ability to sense and interpret internal signals.
Kelly explains what interoception is and how it differs from our traditional five senses. We delve into how interoception plays a significant role in behavior, particularly before and after dysregulation. Understanding these internal cues can be key to helping individuals manage their emotions and responses.
This episode is a must-listen for educators! Kelly shares practical strategies for proactively teaching students about interoception and the incredible benefits of doing so. We also tackle common misconceptions surrounding interoception and discuss how educators can adapt their classroom management and structures to better support students' interoceptive needs. Learn how to create a more inclusive and understanding learning environment by tuning in!
