"It’s Not Misbehaviour — It’s a Sensory Mismatch."
We all have a unique sensory profile — a personal way our brain processes sights, sounds, smells, tastes, textures, movement, balance, and internal signals. Some people barely notice flickering lights, itchy tags, or background noise… while others feel overwhelmed, distracted, or physically distressed by them.
For neurodivergent individuals, these sensory differences can be more intense, and harder to regulate.
They might seek more, avoid more, or become easily dysregulated — not because they're being difficult, but because the world doesn’t match what their nervous system needs.
🧠 When we shift the question from
❌ “Why are they misbehaving?”
to
💡 “Could this be a sensory mismatch?”
—we create space for understanding, compassion, and practical support.
This video explores all 8 senses and how under- or over-responsiveness can impact daily life — in school, at work, in relationships, or in our own bodies.
🎥 Watch now and learn how sensory needs shape behaviour — and how small adjustments can make a big difference.
