48: Craft as Stimming, Craft as Repair w/ Art Therapist Lucy from Embrace This Space

Featuring: Lucy — Art therapist based in Melbourne, Australia, working at the intersection of creativity, neurodivergence, sensory regulation, and relational healing. People rarely heal by talking alone; this week, Lucy joins me to explain that slow and soft sensory practices can be the most powerful tools for nervous system repair, especially for neurodivergent people who’ve built up trauma just trying to survive without proper self-understanding. Curious What’s Inside? 1. Crafting for Nervous System Repair: how slow, tactile art forms like embroidery can support regulation, agency, and self-worth when words and traditional therapy fall short. 2. Craft as stimming: How hand-crafting creates felt-safety through rhythm, repetition, and choice. 3. Animals & Co-Regulation: Exploring how animals can buff your restoration score 4. Sensory Awareness & Grounding: Low-demand grounding practices that don’t rely on breathwork or visualization techniques Questions We Answer: Why do some people heal more through creating art than in talk therapy? How can craft support executive function and emotional regulation? What makes breathwork grounding inaccessible for many neurodivergent people? How do animals support co-regulation in therapy and daily life? What does low-demand grounding actually look like in practice?
