👃💫 Olfactory Sensory Sensitivities
Scents can be overwhelming for people with sensory sensitivities, triggering discomfort, feelings of disgust, nausea, or anxiety.
Whether it’s perfumes, cleaning products, or certain food smells, recognizing and supporting these sensitivities can make a world of difference.
🔹 Identify replacements for scented products
🔹 Communicate your needs
🔹 Use unscented or low-scent alternatives (add your own scent as you like)
🔹 Build a scent safety kit
🔹 Allow yourself to engage in work-around strategies
Let’s create environments that respect all sensory needs 💛
