If Your Child or Client Has 8 Senses, Why Are We Still Only Addressing 5?

When a child struggles to focus, regulate, or connect, most solutions look at hearing or vision. But those are only part of the story.

Eight sensory systems shape how a child feels, moves, learns, and relates to others. The ones most often overlooked are proprioception, vestibular, and interoception. These systems are key for body awareness, emotional regulation, and feeling safe in the world.

In this webinar replay, occupational therapist Nancy Marin shares the complete picture of sensory integration. You will also see how she uses The Listening Program® (TLP) to help organize the nervous system and make meaningful progress in behavior, learning, and relationships.

This replay is designed for both parents and professionals who want to better understand the children they care for and support them with strategies that are informed, compassionate, and effective.

You will discover:

🔸 The role of all eight sensory systems in development
🔸 How to recognize sensory seeking and sensory avoiding behaviors
🔸 What a sensory diet is and why it matters
🔸 How to select activities and tools that match each child’s sensory profile
🔸 Ways to integrate TLP, movement, and other strategies

When we understand what the nervous system truly needs, we move beyond managing behavior and instead build trust, regulation, and growth.
