Mornings can be the hardest part of the day, whether for ourselves or the young people we care for. This session explores why waking up can feel so difficult and what is happening in the body and brain during this transition. Importantly, we'll explore practical strategies to make mornings more supportive. We’ll also look at how the way we start the day is another key moment to support the body clock and set up the next round of sleep.

An in-person conference talk at Autisticon
NEXUS, Leeds
