My Super Attuned Brain Handout

My Super Attuned Brain is an editable, therapeutic resource designed specifically for neurodiverse children who notice the world with extra-sharp detail. For children with highly attuned brains, small changes like a new drawing project or a different routine can sometimes trigger a loud body alarm that makes it hard to stay engaged in different environments. This booklet helps children reframe these intense sensations not as being difficult, but as their brain’s way of trying to protect its magic.

This Resource is:

Fully Customisable: Use Canva to personalise the story with your child’s name, photos, and unique experiences to make it relevant to their context.

Identify Anchors: Collaborative pages help the child identify their own Anchors, like safe spaces, creative activities, and support people who help them feel grounded.

Actionable Strategies: Includes simple, in-the-moment tools like deep breathing and body-scanning to help children navigate overwhelming feelings.

Builds Autonomy: Designed to be filled out with the child, fostering self-awareness and helping them see that they are capable, even when things feel hard.

Help your child understand their special gifts and how the people and places around them can be adapted to support their growth and learning.
