Description: Interoception: The Eighth Sensory System Paperback – October 30, 2015 by Kelly J Interoception: The Eighth Sensory System Paperback – October 30, 2015by Kelly J. Mahler (Author), PhD A.D. "Bud" Craig (Foreword) Within the human body lies an important sensory system called interoception. Interoception enables us to experience essential feelings such as hunger, fullness, thirst, itch, pain, body temperature, nausea, need for the bathroom, tickle, physical exertion and sexual arousal. Additionally, interoception allows us to feel our emotions. As with other sensory systems, the interoceptive system can be impacted in individuals with conditions such as autism, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD and eating disorders. Interoception is a hot topic in research fields, however, up until this point, little has been discussed about interoception in the practical treatment of these conditions. Interoception: The Eighth Sensory System provides a detailed connection between interoception and common experiences of individuals with these and similar conditons. “Mahler provides research and practical strategies that can be easily implemented across the lifespan to help individuals manage their bodies, emotions and self-regulation” (Brenda Myles, PhD). The research showing just how important interoception is to many aspects of life is unequivocal. Interoception: The Eighth Sensory delivers an overview of this research and describes the clear link between interoception and important skill areas such as self- awareness, self-regulation, problem solving, social intuition, perspective taking and many more. Editorial ReviewsReview When Kelly first mentioned the concept of interoception, a light bulb went off. This was a missing piece that people should have been discussing in the field of ASD…. Many individuals with ASD ... cannot label how something feels internally. The research that has gone into this book is superb, and it must be read by any professional, parent, or service provider who seeks to provide better services for an individual with ASD. --Kerry Mataya, author of Successful Problem-Solving for High-Functioning Students With Autism Spectrum Disorders. The connection between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and interoception is essential to understanding and supporting learners on the spectrum. This innovative, groundbreaking book presents new information that will help family members, individuals on the spectrum, and those who support them understand the important rol of interoception in ASD. Mahler provides research and practical strategies that can be easily implemented across the lifespan to help individuals manage their bodies, emotions, and self-regulation. --Brenda Myles, PhD, consultant with the Ohio Center for Autism and Low Incidence (OCALI) and the Ziggurat Group Kelly Mahler has managed to clearly explain a range of research on interoception and how this links to the experience, awareness, and expression of emotions for those on the autism spectrum. The practical assessments and strategies provided are easy to understand will be applicable both at home and in schools/preschools. This book explores the link between interoception, sensory difficulties, and self-regulation and the autism spectrum. Example from autistic children and young people enable the reader to understand this complex concept and see the benefit of applying the strategies described to increase interoceptive awareness in any person that struggles in this area. As an autism consultant and adviser, I can see how useful this book could be within homes and schools and look forward to a growing understanding of the role of interoception in autistic achievemen. --Dr. Emma Goodall, PhD, MA, BEd Hons, Dip MontAbout the Author Kelly Mahler, MS, OTR/L, is a pediatric occupational therapist in the Central Pennsylvania region.
