What if one moment of overwhelm changes everything?

This recent MRT case reminds us that for many autistic and special needs individuals, sudden changes and sensory overload can trigger a fight-or-flight response — not by choice, but because emotional regulation skills are still developing.

These skills aren’t “nice to have”.
They’re safety skills.

We’ve written more about why emotional regulation matters, and how early support can prevent moments like this from escalating.

If the year didn’t start feeling clear or accomplished, you’re not alone.

Our founder Sze Jin recently spoke on CNA938 with Hui Wong about why progress isn’t always visible and why self-compassion matters, especially when January feels heavier than expected.

Progress doesn’t follow the calendar. Neither does healing 🤍

When you really want next year to be different.
Whether it starts with grapes, goals, or a quiet wish, we hope the year ahead feels kinder to you.

Remember: Real change grows with intention and support.

Wishing everyone a gentle, meaningful New Year ✨

Many children, teens, and even young adults with special needs struggle with big emotions like frustration, overwhelm, and sensory overload.

And honestly, it’s not because they don’t want to regulate their emotions. It’s often because they haven’t been taught how.

So here’s one simple calming strategy you can try with them: AKP Butterfly Heartbeat💛

Ever felt guilty receiving a gift? 🎁
You’re not ungrateful — there’s a psychological reason behind it 🧠

Gift guilt often comes from self-worth schemas
Beliefs like “I don’t deserve this” or “I need to earn kindness” can make receiving feel uncomfortable 😔

Hear from our new clinical psychologist, gift guilt is a learned emotional response
When kindness challenges our beliefs about worth, guilt can show up instead of joy

In this video , we share gentle ways to reframe gift guilt using Compassion-Focused Therapy 🌱
Receiving does not create a debt
You are allowed to accept kindness 🤍

🎉 We were grateful to be part of the Enabling Festival organzied by .sg , spending a meaningful morning with our special needs participants, caregivers, staff, and volunteers.

The session was thoughtfully designed to support both groups, with a nature-based social skills adventure for our special needs participants, and a forest bathing experience for caregivers to pause, reflect, and recharge.

We closed the morning with a shared picnic, reinforcing the importance of community, inclusion, and holistic support for families.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this experience possible.
