Interoception: the Eighth Sensory System with Kelly Mahler
It's time to feel all the feels! In today’s episode, I chat with Kelly Mahler, an occupational therapist and the author of Interoception: the Eighth Sensory System. We unpack everything there is to know about interoception, including:
- What interoception is + why it's important
- How interoception links autism and eating disorders
- What Alexithymia is
- The impact of gaslighting on the sensory experience
- The relationship between trust and anxiety
- How to support someone who struggles with interoception
- The dangers of labels + how to let go of them
- How autism can manifest as an eating disorder
- Whether you yourself struggle with interoception, are the supporter or loved one of someone who does, or just want to learn more about the topic, I have no doubt you will gain so much knowledge from this wonderful conversation I had with Kelly!
