Interoception: The Eighth Sensory Sense

You’re Invited to Join the Regional Autism Advisory Council in Learning about Interoception!

What is Interoception? Interoception helps us to ‘feel’ body signals like a growling stomach, tense muscles or speeding heart. Our ability to clearly feel these internal body signals enables us to accurately identify and manage our own emotions as well as understand the emotions of other people. Many individuals with autism, ADHD, depression, trauma and anxiety disorders have significant challenges with interoception. This presentation will provide an overview of interoception, as well as how it impacts the development of self-regulation, language, social participation and emotional well-being.
