Brushing Textures

How to Do:

 

1. Setup:

  • Create a quiet and calming space, using a bean bag chair or a comfortable seat for the participant.
  • Optionally, play soft, relaxing classical music or nature sounds to enhance the experience.

2. Guided Pressure Application:

  • Use mild to medium pressure while brushing, allowing the participant to guide and communicate their preferred pressure level.

3. Brushing Sequence:

Perform the following steps with each texture:

  • Soft Powder Puff
    – Brush both arms up and down 10 times.
    – Brush both legs up and down 10 times.
    – Brush the back and over the shoulders 10 times.
  • Smooth Silky Cloth
    – Brush both arms up and down 10 times.
    – Brush both legs up and down 10 times.
    – Brush the back and over the shoulders 10 times.
  • Lambswool Cloth
    – Brush both arms up and down 10 times.
    – Brush both legs up and down 10 times.
    – Brush the back and over the shoulders 10 times.

4. Repeat:

  • Complete the sequence for all textures, adjusting pressure and pace based on the participant’s feedback.

5. Relaxation:

  • Allow the participant to sit quietly after the activity, focusing on the calming sensations from the brushing.

Tips for Success:

  • Use slow and steady movements to maximize the calming effects.
  • Encourage the participant to communicate their preferences for pressure and pace.
  • Maintain a soothing and supportive tone throughout the activity.
