“The job of the brain is to put order in the disorder, and make sense out of the nonsense.”
~ Anat Baniel
autism spectrum disorder
As the word "spectrum" indicates, there is wide variation in how ASD affects people. Challenges include organizing movement, cognition, emotions and interpersonal relations. A system that faces such challenge might show:
difficulty communicating/interacting with others (lack of eye contact)
restricted interests
repetitive behavior
emotional dis-regulation
cognitive delays (speech/language)
physical delays
As we understand through brain plasticity principles, ABM NeuroMovement® helps our brains make sense of the nonsense and put order in the disorder. NeuroMovement® lessons facilitate the brain's ability to perceive differences in children who experience autism spectrum disorder. Perceiving differences is the basis for ALL learning. When that happens, children who struggle with ASD can regulate themselves more efficiently, communicate more effectively, and overcome limitations.
