I STOPPED BREATHING IN MAY, RIGHT AFTER YOU.
I LOST MYSELF IN JUNE
LOST MY LIFE TO THE MOON, SEARCHING. WANDERING. WAITING FOR MY MIND.
THE WARMTH FROM SUNSHINE COULDN’T DRY MY EYES.
RIVERS RUN WILD ON A CANVAS AND THROUGH ME, WASH ME AWAY, CARRY ME UNTIL I FIND YOU.
WHO’D THINK TO SAY, A DECADE LATER, IN A CHILLY ALLEYWAY, SMOKING YOUR MEMORY AWAY, THAT I’D FIND YOU AGAIN. TRACE THE COLORS OF YOUR FACE AND THEN, CATCH A GLIMPSE OF YOU IN THE SKY. I’LL FOREVER SEE YOU IN THE NORTHERN LIGHTS.

Topic of the Month: On-the-Go Sensory Kits
SENSORY ENVIRONMENTS
Many neurodivergent folks struggle with sensory processing issues, whether they are hypersensitive or hyposensitive. The “symptoms” of ADHD and autism that are most frequently noticed in children are often natural reactions to sensory triggers in the environment. For those of us who are late diagnosed, we may have learned to tune out sensory discomfort due to a lack of awareness of what sensory issues are and how to communicate with others about them. A lot of us “tough it out” when we leave home, only to collapse into burnout when we get back. Here’s how to change that pattern.

Here are some resources to improve your sensory environment at home or work, for yourself and others:
