Stimming is a natural self care method!


Reasons stimming is beneficial include:


1. Emotion Regulation: Stimming helps manage anxiety and frustration by releasing energy or tension.


2. Sensory Processing: Stimming balances sensory input by calming overstimulation or providing stimulation when lacking.


3. Focus Enhancement: Actions like leg bouncing or fidgeting help maintain concentration in challenging environments.


4. Joy Expression: Stimming can convey happiness or excitement, not just release stress or anxiety.


5. Autonomy & Acceptance: Embracing stimming honours personal needs and resists the pressure to mask one’s true self.

I acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land where I live and work, the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nations. I acknowledge that this land was never ceded and always was, always will be Aboriginal land. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging.

I celebrate, value and include people of all backgrounds, genders, sexualities, cultures, age groups, spiritual beliefs, physical abilities and disabilities.
