Are you a Sensory Elephant or Mouse? with Ali Neal

In our latest podcast, Ali Neal, an occupational therapist specialising in sensory processing, joins Dale to discuss the intriguing concept of sensory profiles, exploring the differences between being a “sensory elephant” and a “sensory mouse.” Ali provides valuable insights into how these profiles affect children’s experiences in school and everyday life. Key topics include: Understanding sensory needs and how they manifest in different individuals. Practical strategies for supporting children based on their sensory profiles. Finding a balance and understanding that needs can shift depending on the environment. The importance of recognising and responding to sensory processing challenges in educational settings. “You might find it the other way around as well, that if you’re worn out, you get overloaded more quickly because your window of tolerance is smaller.” Ali Neal This conversation is a must-listen for anyone involved in supporting children, especially those with sensory processing difficulties.
