Watch first

What this is

When you're overstimulated, it can feel like one giant wall of "too much" — and that vagueness makes it harder to help yourself. This check-in gently sorts the overload into specific channels: sound, light, touch, people, movement, and more. Naming which senses are loud (and what your body is doing) lowers the intensity on its own and points you toward exactly what you need. The screen stays calm and slow on purpose.

⚠ Precautions

  • A self-help sensory self-monitoring exercise, not therapy or diagnosis.
  • Being overstimulated is a normal, valid experience — not a flaw.
  • If overload is frequent or severely impacts daily life, consider an OT or professional.
  • If you ever feel unsafe, pause and reach a helpline.
