Welcome to the Seven Senses Blog

Neurodiversity celebrates the many ways human brains are uniquely wired, recognising that conditions such as autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and sensory processing differences are not deficits to be “fixed,” but natural variations of experience. Spirituality, in its broadest sense, is about connection- whether to ourselves, to others, to nature, or to a higher consciousness. When we explore the intersection of neurodiversity and spirituality, we uncover a deeply enriching perspec

When it comes to understanding how children and young people learn, communicate, and experience the world, two terms often come up: neurodivergent and SEN (Special Educational Needs). While they are closely related, they don’t mean the same thing and understanding the difference can help us better support the children in our lives.

At Seven Senses, we believe neurodiversity, SEN and sensory preferences are something to be embraced and celebrated, not simply accommodated. Whether you’re a parent, educator, carer, or simply someone who wants to support the children in your life more consciously. We’ve thoughtfully curated a collection of books, podcasts, tech tools, and community resources that reflect our values of empathy, empowerment, and gentle, holistic support.

Sensory sensitivities refer to how individuals perceive and respond to the sensory information around them. For many neurodivergent people, particularly those with autism, ADHD, or sensory processing differences- everyday experiences can feel very different than they might for others.

Early identification and support for children with Special Educational Needs (SEN) can be life-changing. When challenges are recognised early and the right strategies are put in place, children are more likely to thrive both in school and beyond. It’s not just about boosting academic outcomes; it’s about nurturing a child’s confidence, emotional wellbeing, and sense of belonging.
