over 20 years ago, I found myself teaching neurodiverse children how to meditate.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t planned.\u00a0 I knew very little about Autism, and I didn&#8217;t realise that in my class of 12 children, some of them were Autistic.<\/p>\n<p>Awareness of Autism wasn&#8217;t as advanced as it is today.\u00a0 I sat in the class and guided these children on how to focus on their breath and their bodies, taking them into a safe place in their imaginations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It was so successful that I was repeatedly asked to return<\/strong>, and this led to the publication of my first book, <a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/home-resources\/books-to-teach-meditation\/\">&#039;Ni\u00f1os tranquilos&#039;<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, today, we have more compassionate understanding about the experiences of Autistic children.\u00a0 We aren&#8217;t home and dry yet; there is still a long journey ahead for more people to have compassionate awareness of Autistic children&#8217;s needs.\u00a0 But what strikes me most about this important section of our society, is that they have so much to teach us.<\/p>\n<div class='widescreen divider plain'><\/div>\n<h3>Widening the Lens<\/h3>\n<p>Anyone who practises meditation may already know that a personal practice can help us reframe thoughts and experiences.\u00a0 We can process questions and challenges in new ways that helps us gain a bigger perspective and therefore compassion for self and others.<\/p>\n<p>That happened to me when I meditated on the very idea of Autism.\u00a0 I was curious to know more, and I wanted to combine my enthusiasm for sharing mindfulness meditation techniques with Neurodivergent children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>I started to explore this intuitively, offering suggestions to parents who were lost in their children&#8217;s world.\u00a0 <strong>These suggestions seemed to bring more calm into their lives, so we continued.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I wanted to teach meditation skills to them, not to change them, but to help them be the best version of themselves.\u00a0 To give them tools to reduce the stress of being an Autistic child.\u00a0 Our society and lifestyles don&#8217;t support the sensitive nature of these wonderful children so I know how stressful and anxious life can be for them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I just wanted to give them something simple that might help.\u00a0 And it did.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Helping autistic children with mindfulness led to me helping parents and professionals. who were highly sceptical at first that their child could &#8216;meditate&#8217; but didn&#8217;t know what else to do.\u00a0 This experience inspired my 2nd book &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/home-resources\/books-to-teach-meditation\/\">Connected Kids&#8217;<\/a>.\u00a0 From this point we established our teaching program <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/meditation-benefits-connected-kids-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ni\u00f1os conectados<\/a><\/strong>, where we have helped thousands of adults around Autistic children learn how to help them co-regulate and empower them with the skills to self regulate.<\/p>\n<div class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert light\">\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>Sensory Overload<\/h4>\n<p>Take a moment to imagine that the noises you can hear around you were amplified 1000 percent.\u00a0 A simple hum of a handdryer could sound like a pneumatic drill.<\/p>\n<p>This is what life is like for some Autistic children.\u00a0 Their highly attuned sensitivity to the world makes it a tough place to exist.<\/p>\n<p>While it helps if we teach them to use simple breath meditations to help them cope with the sensory overload they experience, <strong>there is much more we can do if we take a step into the world of energy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>El impacto de los centros de energ\u00eda<\/h4>\n<p>Drawing from my expertise in teaching healing and meditation, I frequently help people explore and understand the concept of energy centers, or <a href=\"https:\/\/yogauonline.com\/yoga-practice-teaching-tips\/yoga-research\/yogas-energy-centers-what-science-says-about-the-chakras\/#:~:text=Although%20empirical%20research%20on%20the,nerve%20plexuses%20and%20endocrine%20glands.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chakras<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For Autistic children this constant fight\/flight response in energy terms means they get stuck in routines to gain control and feel grounded in life.<\/p>\n<p>Feeling grounded<strong> instills a sense of safety and security<\/strong> while being ungrounded can result in an overactive mind, poor sleep, fidgeting, excessive physical energy, clumsiness, and an inability to complete tasks. Being aware of this through the root energy chakra offers us a different gateway using<strong> mindful awareness and meditations designed to help ground our energy<\/strong> that can be extremely helpful.<\/p>\n<p>It also means that the adults around Autistic children need to be grounded in order to help them co-regulate.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve spoken to many parents and carers who confirm that when they are ungrounded, their Autistic child feels and strongly reflects this back to them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Efecto espejo: reflejo de la energ\u00eda<\/h4>\n<p>This is why part of our <a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/meditation-benefits-connected-kids-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Programa Ni\u00f1os Conectados<\/a> is dedicated to helping parents, educators and professsionals use mindful approaches and energy awareness to &#8216;hold the space&#8217; which helps with coregulation. Maintaining a centered, calm, and grounded state can positively influence the behaviour of children, acting as mirrors to our own mental and emotional states.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>The Big Picture of Autism<\/h4>\n<p>While it can be challenging to parent or support an Autistic child, once there are simple practices in place that can help both with anxiety and stress, there is the opportunity to observe with wonder, the gift of Autistic children.\u00a0 They don&#8217;t see the world as we do, and they were never meant to.\u00a0 <strong>Their gift is to help us practice our presence<\/strong> in their presence so that we can connect to the world in a way that offers a profound insight &#8211; we are all connected.\u00a0 Not just by the air we breath, but by the energy of this planet (and beyond). This is a profound reframing of how most of us live our lifes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Real people, Real stories<\/h4>\n<p>Una madre (que sigue nuestra <strong><a title=\"Campa\u00f1a de Facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/teachchildrenmeditation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">facebook <\/a><\/strong>page) shared a remarkable story of using mindfulness practices to connect with her children, particularly her son with Asperger&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div><div class='testimonial' style='border-top-color:#D3DCE8; background-color:#D3DCE8;'>&#8220;<em>I had to begin to put into use what I was reading years ago when I was a tired, stressed-out mother of two young boys. \u00a0My oldest was two and my youngest was a newborn. \u00a0I began by bringing myself to be present at the sink whenever I was hand washing dishes, using all my senses to connect deeply with myself and my immediate experience of hot soapy water. \u00a0I found over the first few weeks that every time I calmed my mind, my son would become just as calm. \u00a0I realized we were linked, bonded, energetically, and that on some level my babies could sense and feel everything that I was feeling. \u00a0This served as motivation to keep up my practice.<\/em><\/div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><div class='testimonial' style='border-top-color:#D3DCE8; background-color:#D3DCE8;'><em>The most important way this has helped my son with Asperger&#8217;s is that it gave me the ability to look at him more deeply and to look beyond the immediate hysteria he was experiencing, and into what was behind his fear, or anger. \u00a0It taught me to take the time to center myself, breathe deeply, and ask myself what it was that I could not see that he could see (or feel). \u00a0It taught me compassion and equanimity.<\/em>\u201d\u00a0\u00a0(MR, USA) <\/div><\/div>\n<div><div class='widescreen divider plain'><\/div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Curious but don&#8217;t know where to begin?<\/h4>\n<p>Start by reading our first book, <a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/home-resources\/books-to-teach-meditation\/\">Ni\u00f1os conectados<\/a> which is ideal if you are familiar with meditation.\u00a0 If not, then try the <a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/home-resources\/books-to-teach-meditation\/\">Libro Calm Kids<\/a> which is perfect for beginners.<\/p>\n<p>Estas <a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/home-resources\/books-to-teach-meditation\/\">libros<\/a> will give you insights into what we do and why it works time and time again.<\/p>\n<p>If you prefer to learn directly from me and my 20+ years experience, then explore our Connected Kids program.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Descubre el programa Ni\u00f1os Conectados\u2026<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a target='_blank' class='outward_link deeppink' href='https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/meditation-benefits-connected-kids-training\/'>Saber m\u00e1s<\/a> \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class='widescreen divider plain'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Want to try something to help your Autistic child?<\/h4>\n<p>This feedback (below) is based on a self-regulating technique taught in our <a href=\"https:\/\/teachchildrenmeditation.com\/es\/meditation-benefits-connected-kids-training\/meditation-teacher-training\/\">professional training program<\/a>.
