We so rarely think about how we perceive the world around us. This is because our brain has overtime figured out the ways to select information and frequently shuts out some of the sensors to prevent the sensory overload. Most people do it automatically and without even being aware.
Now, we all know that there are 5 senses: smell, taste, hearing, sight and touch. On top of that some people use the internal chatter as a way of processing information.
Now, what happens to people with autism is that all those 5 senses and the internal chatter might work all the time and they are aware and conscious of the received information. Imagine the internal explosion! No wonder, many of them react emotionally to it and then need peace and quiet away from people and world to rest.
There are people who do not have autism and still have expanded perception, like they could be very visual, with sensitive hearing and very touchy feely all at once. For example, I can feel and taste colours while I absorb them visually. It creates a high level of intensity so I get quite overwhelmed around lots of people and become tired quickly.
I wonder if there is anyone similar to me out there and how many people with autism relate to this?

Only people who personally know someone who has autism appreciate how easy it is for that person to become overloaded with information, and the result is a great degree of distress. When we consider that people receive information through their vision, hearing, touch, taste and smell and most of the time we are not consciously aware of all of those stimulations. Now imagine how would we feel if we become blasted by all of our five senses at once? Different sounds, volume, colours, objects, shapes, textures, sensations created by the fabric of our clothes, tastes and consistencies in our mouth, smells short and lingering, and so on…Pretty overwhelming, isn’t it?

Please read this very interesting review from Amazon.co uk about “Parenting a Child with Asperger Syndrome: 200 Tips and Strategies (Paperback)”
You can find more books and autism toys when you click here
Special Needs Toys
“I have Asperger’s Syndrome, an adult and married. I highly recommend ths book for adults too as the tips and strategies given are useful to anyone (children and adults) with Asperger’s Syndrome and their respective Neuro Typical parents or parteners in life.
Unlike most books on Asperger’s Syndrome, Berenda Boyd shows a great deal of respect, understanding and acceptance of Asperger’s Syndrome. The book is in an easy to read unfussy style providing a clear guide that is broken down into understandable sections, practical and realistic, extremely well written book to just dip into or be read and re-read and keep referring back to time and time and again. Brenda really knows what she is talking about.
Brenda Boyd’s positive attitude ensures readers will gain a sense of celebrating Asperger’s as a life-enriching experience.
I especially like the very end of the book REPORT FROM PLANET ASPERGER which I always take with me where ever I am in the world. This shows people with Asperger’s in their true light. Planet Asperger “would probably be kinder, safer and more truthful than this world” & “But perhaps the most special feature of all on Planet Asperger is the great respect given to children and their values.”
I also liked how she compared Asperger’s to Neuro Typicals akin to comparing trains to cars. As an Asperger, which ever way the tracks are laid, that’s the way our train goes.
The intended audience is wide but the book’s title could restrict the readership to parents and carers only, which would be a shame.
I highly recommend this book and think it is worth every penny.
Manx Mann”

I’ve had a look at my friend’s report and truly wish that I had not already organised my summer holiday as I would be now looking forward to join him for all that fun and benefits. Jam tart! I know that his idea is great because I have already experienced what he’s capable of achieving with people. I’m planning to join him on some of his other projects in the future but he always keeps coming up with all those new ideas.
I bet not many people know that Russians have spent years researching psychology and people abilities and with extraordinary level of success. And they were not the only ones, ha ha. Americans have done it too, oh yes, they were especially interested in the so called Remote Viewing for spying psychically on Russians!!!
Now you have the opportunity to have a close look at some of their methods thanks to my friend. And what’s more important, to benefit from them.

Here’s something that you might want to take a look at:
One of my friends [a personal development trainer] has created a bizarre 14 page report that talks about the Russian Military using NLP techniques plus some great tips for anyone who is looking for a summer holiday, or to make more money so they can afford one!
It’s at:
http://thenlpcourse.com/Liberate-Yourself-in-2009
This guy’s stuff is always cutting edge and his material actually does what it claims.
There’s some revealing statistics in there plus pictures of half naked people!
And there’s action items that you can start applying right now if you’d like to have your own business or already have one. I laughed out loud reading it,so I wanted to get this report out to you ASAP.
It’s done and it’s ready for you to download.
Just go here:
http://thenlpcourse.com/Liberate-Yourself-in-2009
When it comes to personal development, Jonathan lives, breathes and sleeps what he teaches, but he doesn’t claim to be a “guru” or anything like that.
And at the end of the report there’s a link that will take you to ANOTHER page where you can put your name on his VIP list, cos I know he’s got something big coming up.
Just make sure you read the whole report and don’t forget that link at the end if you want to find out more about it.
Talk soon,
Lilian
