Regulating emotions is challenging for people with ASD.
My Stress Book is a tool that helps your child identify levels of stress and then guides them about what to do to feel calm and in control. My Stress Book contains different exercises to help your child “rate” their stress about anything they find challenging. From managing stress in school to a typical workday, it reminds them of self calming strategies so they can tackle anything in life that creates a stress response.
Your family is not alone. School and workplace stressors are very common. By working together with the tools inside My Stress Book, your child will learn to locate specific areas or moments that trigger stress.
There are even exercises on what TO DO when your stress is too high, known as self-calming strategies. Everyone is unique, yet there are themes in how stress presents itself and how we can learn to manage it.
Help your child find self-calming strategies that work for your family in your home, school and family situations.
