Workshop description:

This presentation is designed for therapists, teachers, parents, caregivers

and other professionals who are interested in understanding the fundamentals of

sensory processing and its impact on attention, behavior, social engagement,

creative thinking, purpose driven play and learning. Genevieve offers practical

and powerful tools to help support children “learn and thrive from the inside

out”. Participants will be able to add beneficial experiences to the sensory

diets of the children they care for. Respiration and its effects on behavior,

learning and attention will be presented along with practical tools to support

the breath at home, in the classroom or in the social environment. Participants

will be exposed to a multitude of activities involving rhythm and movement to

implement immediately when leaving the workshop with the children they care for.

A relationship based approach to interacting with your children to support

problem solving, motor planning, creative

thinking, building bridges between ideas and social connectiveness will also be

presented in specific detail. The speaker will address how sensory processing

difficulties affect many children, both with and without the diagnoses of Autism

Spectrum Disorders, Asperger’s Syndrome, ADHD, ADD, learning challenges and

other developmental and neurological challenges. The speaker will describe how,

both recognized and undetected, sensory processing difficulties in children can

significantly impact social and emotional relationships, behavior, attention and

learning in the classroom, home and clinic.
