I can’t meditate. So I tried this instead | Autism From The Inside

#autism #mindfulness #nervoussystem I’ve been looking for ways to calm my nervous system without falling asleep. Traditional guided meditations don’t work well for me… I either get distracted or drift off. So I’ve been experimenting with something different. Slow, mindful, barefoot walking. Letting my nervous system regulate through sensory input. It’s simple. It’s grounding. And it works (for me). There are many ways to practise mindfulness, you just have to find the one that fits your brain and body. WANT TO HELP ME CONTINUE TO MAKE MORE CONTENT LIKE THIS?

If you're autistic or think you or someone you love might be on the autism spectrum, this channel is for you! I'm Paul Micallef, and I discovered my own autism at age 30. Yes, I know, I don't look autistic. That's exactly why I started this channel in the first place because if I didn't show you, you would never know. Autism affects many (if not all!) aspects of our lives, so on this channel, I want to show you what Autism looks like in real people and give you some insight into what's happening for us on the inside. We'll break down myths and misconceptions, discuss how to embrace autism and live well, and share what it's like to be an autistic person. Join me as I share what I've found along my journey, so you don't have to learn it the hard way. Make sure to subscribe so you won’t miss my new video every Friday and some bonus content thrown in mid-week too. ➡️️    / @autismfromtheinside   👋Connect with me: ➡️️ Patreon:   / aspergersfromtheinside   ➡️️ Facebook:   / autismfromtheinside.com.au   ➡️️ Twitter:   / aspiefrominside   ➡️️ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/autismfromin... ➡️️ Written Blog: https://www.autismfromtheinside.com.a... ➡️️ Email: [email protected] Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my channel!
