What it’s all about

 

 

My aim is to improve the quality of life for people on the spectrum.
I achieve this both, by imparting knowledge about autism and by teaching simple movement exercises from the field of reflex integration.

Understanding Autism in its core

All living beings strive to develop their inherent potential to the best of their ability.
If unimpaired, this leads to the development of a coherent Self consisting of body and mind. With this, we perceive ourselves and our environment, we process the information we receive and act thereupon in the best possible way, according to our nature.
Every human being is a multi-layered system and follows logical laws in its development. All developmental processes take place simultaneously on different levels. If only one part of the original development plan is impaired, this has consequences in different areas.

Autism is a highly complex developmental process – visible is only the tip of the iceberg!

An impairment during early pregnancy is considered to be a possible cause. Subsequently, the entire further development proceeds fundamentally different and varies greatly to the neurotypical course, depending on the onset and severity of the impact. For example, brain functions and even brain anatomy often organize themselves atypically. This results in a broad spectrum of different abilities on the one hand and a wide range of impairments on the other.
If we take up the brain physiological cause of autism and dovetail it with other theories, e.g. on early childhood development or on communication, on the functioning of the brain or on the construction of knowledge, a completely new perspective opens up: Some things that previously seemed strange or inexplicable can now be understood and appreciated as personally meaningful and systemic development under difficult conditions.

This comprehensive understanding enables us to support people on the spectrum in their development in a focused way.
