Like everything else, our energy, feelings & interoceptive cues are learnt skills. Interoception (our body sensations like a bubbly belly, a full bladder, or a pounding heart) can be tricky concepts to learn about, but are worth the time as they help us to notice & understand more about our emotions :)

The related skill of self-regulation is a vital skill in life & I hope these provide you with a clear & interesting format to help children and teens to understand & own their use of sensory self-regulation language & strategies.

This collection of Interoceptive Themed Self-Regulation resources includes 6 high quality pdf pages:
