Calming Kids Australia has teamed up with the amazing Autism Level UP Authors Amy and Jac, and we are so excited to make it available in Australia and New Zealand.
The super short story:
A written walk-through of all the Autism Level UP! tools and ways of thinking about supporting regulation for yourself or others. Designed with Autistic and Neurodivergent people in mind, but perfectly suitable for all neurotypes!
A bit more:
The term “regulation” is tossed around a lot today (and maybe regulation likes or requires that kind of sensory input…), especially in the form of “emotional regulation.” How does Autism Level UP! conceptualize regulation? We think about ENERGY and energy regulation.
Where is your energy right now? Where do you want it to be for whatever it is you are doing (reading a manual, perhaps)? Do those two answers line up? If so, you are well regulated. Are those two answers different? You might be dysregulated and need some kind of tool or strategy to make a match. We find this to be a more realistic, authentic and affirming method for thinking about regulation than tying it to socially constructed emotions.
This manual will teach you how we think about ENERGY, and how you can use it for yourself or to support others through the introduction of our tools, worksheets and ways of thinking. We offer ideas on how to introduce the concept to people with wide ranging neurotypes and communication profiles as well as how to ensure a fair and equitable partnership develops in which the burden of change and growth is on both the person and the partner.
We hope you enjoy this choose your own adventure journey and where ever you end up, you have taken another step in levelling UP!
