Description

  • Is it behavior – or sensory overload in disguise? Uncover how hidden sensory stress fuels reactivity and anxiety.
  • Why rhythm – not control – is the real key to regulation. Simple, body-based tools to restore focus and calm.
  • Help kids find calm in a world that won’t slow down. Rewire stress responses through sensory-based interventions.

 

Today’s kids are surrounded by more stimulation – and more pressure – than ever before.

Classrooms are louder, screens brighter, and downtime harder to find.

Their brains adapt fast – but their nervous systems are showing the strain. Many struggle to focus, self-regulate, or recover from stress.

That’s where Dr. Adam Blanning comes in. A board-certified family physician and internationally respected educator, Dr. Blanning has spent over two decades teaching how sensory, immune, and emotional systems work together to shape resilience.

In this practical intervention-driven workshop, he introduces the Sensory Nutrition model – an integrative framework for helping children restore balance in a world that rarely slows down.

You’ll learn 10+ ready-to-use tools to:

  • Reestablish neural balance to support sustained attention, rest, and recovery.
  • Decode overwhelm using the Sensory Radius™  model to recognize anxiety and shutdown behaviors.
  • Build resilience through physiology, environment, and relationship.
  • Support regulation in kids with ADHD, autism, and trauma.

This isn’t another “calming tools” course.

It’s a complete sensory survival system that helps you see what’s really happening beneath the behavior – and gives you the tools to respond effectively.

You’ll leave knowing how to help children:

  • Process experiences more fully.
  • Recover from daily stress more quickly.
  • Regulate emotions with greater confidence and ease.

Because when we help children find their rhythm, they don’t just cope better – they re-engage with curiosity, connection, and the capacity to thrive.

  • How much is too much? Spotting when children cross the threshold from stimulation to overwhelm
  • Use the Sensory Radius™ model to decode anxiety and identify hidden stress patterns
  • Expand “sensory support” beyond fidgets and textures – into relationships, routines, and emotional tone
