About this listen

As a mom of a newly diagnosed child with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), I relentlessly sought experts in SPD, as well as top nutritionists, biopsychologists, and neurologists. I figured that if I understood the major functions of the brain, and how it's supposed to take in, process, and respond to stimulation, I could discover how SPD interferes with these functions. Understanding the whole picture - the combination of body, brain, and nutritional health - led me to embrace the "Sensory Diet". In this book, I share the keys of a well-balanced nutritional diet and the activities and exercises that truly work. Use the resources in this book to create a whole picture of your own child's conditions and customize a Sensory Diet for him/her.

Critic reviews

"If you're the parent, teacher, relative, or friend of a sensory kid, The Sensory Processing Diet will give you unique insight into his or her world. Reading it was a breath of fresh air, as I could relate to so many of her parenting struggles and found her recommended interventions to be both doable and helpful." (Cameron Kleimo, sensory mom)

"Chynna Laird has written a sensational book about a little known disorder, but one that is becoming increasingly more identified in children. As a child psychologist, I found the book to be interesting, informative and complete. I recommend it highly to parents and professionals. I loved it." (Laurie Zelinger, PhD, ABPP, RPT-S, board certified psychologist, author of Please Explain "Anxiety" to Me)

"I work with many children in play therapy that also experience sensory issues. The Sensory Diet gives an in-depth look at contributors to SPD, what types of treatments are available and adjustments families can make so that a child with SPD can cope in life in a way that he/she hasn't understood before. I wholeheartedly recommend it to therapists and parents." (Jill Osborne, EDS, LPC, CPCS, RPTS, author of Sam Feels Better Now!)
