⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

textures that were previously too stimulating or gag-inducing become tolerable and explored.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

whole and real foods that were previously repulsive become palatable and intriguing.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

fine motor skills that previously were hidden away under lock and key of a mobilized nervous system have space to be expressed, honed, and practiced.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

tasks that previously would take too long to complete become enjoyable and applause-worthy.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

and this is just what we are seeing on the outside. can you imagine all of the changes that are taking place within?

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

within a system that has bandwidth.

within a system that perceives safety.

within a system that feels at home within self.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

at the inside space, we are here to sit with you and your family.

in patience.

in acceptance.

in support.

in trust.
