Preparing for Difficult Days - Proactive Regulation!

Preparing for Difficult Days - Proactive Regulation!

Daily deals on Neurodiversity Affirming Practice professional education - https://playlearnchat.com/deals-week (Ends 28 Nov 2025)

-----

As we head into the busiest part of the year with changes, unpredictable off-routine things, and maybe extreme weather, here's how to proactively regulate and prepare for difficult days. This helps the children you support, and yourself!

"When you're very proactive in putting supports in place, the amount of reactive support that's needed reduces greatly." - Adina Levy

In this episode, I share:

  • Why preparing for difficult days (hot weather, poor sleep, changes to routine) is particularly helpful for Autistic and anxious folks, and how to anticipate what might be challenging
  • How to build regulation toolkits with children: create short lists of what helps when dysregulated, model your own strategies, and practice strategies ahead of time, not just when things fall apart
  • What lowering expectations really means (hint: it's not about limiting potential forever), and why self-advocacy takes practice and confidence
