The deed is done! I've contacted @TheRepairShop with details of this treadle fretsaw, to ask that the work of occupational therapists is showcased on the programme marking the 75th anniversary of our NHS. Please like and retweet to show your support 💚

Moving onto linking to emotion in the interoception curriculum. Using body math = clues to help us explore our emotions #InteroceptionUK #ThriveOT

Body check charts and IA on the fly are critical to embedding interoception outside of a therapy intervention. #thriveot #InteroceptionUK


Loving hearing about our own ideas and ‘lessons’. Which body part would you like to focus on and notice the feeling? What activities could you participate in to provide opportunity #thriveot #InteroceptionUK

Subtle differences in language can crate opportunity for interoception-informed responses. When using your hands to pick out beads from ice How do your HANDS feel when holding the ice cube? How does the ICE feel? Thanks @kmahlerkmahler for the example. #interoceptionuk #thirveot


IA builders are a together experience for all who want to explore #interoceptionuk #thriveot


Thoughts too long for Twitter… #interoceptionuk #thriveot

Don’t assume peoples feelings. Someone might look still doesn’t mean their feelings match… they might feel wiggly. Not observable but needs us to validate those feelings. #interoceptionuk #thriveot


IA descriptor menus help us explore. They should be unique and support the persons needs regardless of AAC. It’s not linear and should be added to based on the person #interoceptionuk #thirveot

Does any form of mindfulness assume a safe relationship with our bodies? Would love to know other peoples thoughts and views #interoceptionuk #thriveot


Body mindfulness can be abstract as a concept, it requires attention and some window of tolerance. #interoceptionuk #thriveot

Back on interoception with @kmahlerkmahler and @ThriveOTs.Attempting to tweet as I go this morning but it’s not my strength. Interoception is highly changeable in adults and working evidence base within paediatrics #interoceptionuk #thriveot


Thank you @kmahlerkmahler for being so open and critical of the research and evidence out there. I really value how open this has been so far and supports me to consider the evidence informing my practice. #interoceptionuk #thriveot


💭#️⃣5️⃣ My final thoughts as I notice my own eyes getting heavier and blinking slower = telling me I’m sleepy. It’s OK to take our time, pace ourselves and give ourselves and others space to feel the feels. #Thriveot #interoceptionuk


💭#️⃣4️⃣ Assessment is not a linear approach. Be curious, explore what the feeling might be. Interoception is unique, do we have an assessment which fully explores this unique concept? Use the tools in our ‘OT’ toolbox to validate and understand. #thriveot #interoceptionuk


💭#️⃣3️⃣ I’ve not reflected on how instinctual Interoception is. As newborns we will cry to respond to those homeostatic emotions and feelings = getting our needs (hopefully) met by caregivers around us and co-regulation. How / when does this change? 🧐. #interoceptionuk #thriveot


💭#️⃣2️⃣ There is a difference between Homeostatic emotion (e.g. pain, hunger, tiredness) and affective emotions (e.g boredom, sadness, joy). #thriveot #interoceptionuk


Thought 💭 #️⃣1️⃣ Interoception is defined as ‘the sensory system that gives us information regarding how our body feels and what it needs for health and regulation’ #thriveot #interoceptionuk
