3 Sensory Strategies for High-Functioning, Neurodivergent Adults in Recovery

Are you a high-functioning neurodivergent adult in recovery? You’re not alone. Sensory modulation isn’t just about comfort—it’s a powerful tool for staying grounded, managing urges, and supporting mental well-being.

In this video, we’ll explore:

  • Cold Exposure – How ice, cold showers, and cold plunges can reset your nervous system and stop binge urges in their tracks.
  • Knocking the Kidneys – A Qi-Gong technique that enhances body awareness and provides instant calm.
  • Weighted Input – From weighted blankets to pets to jiu-jitsu, discover how deep pressure can soothe and stabilize your system.

By understanding and harnessing your sensory profile, you can regain control, avoid sensory overload, and create a recovery-friendly environment.
