🔑 Key Takeaways:
Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated:

• Try To Keep It Simple: Self-care can be a moment to breathe or even taking control of the radio, even a long shower. However you do it, make sure you work it into your routine–it’ll only benefit your child!
• Make A Friend In The Waiting Room: Having a neurodivergent child can feel isolating. Consider connecting with parents experiencing the same things as you to start when you need a good listener.
• Work On Emotional Regulation: Take moments to demonstrate good emotional regulation for your child. Consider even communicating your small self-care moments or share a moment with your child.
