What are Sensory Games?
Games are fun ways to challenge and develop your body intelligence. They align and tune the body – mind, which is the opposite of sitting at a computer screen.
Physical health requires a high level of body awareness. Call it physical sensitivity, i.e. having a clear sense what’s happening in your body. Sensory games are simple, enjoyable ways for anyone to develop body awareness, integrate the senses, and improve health. We often think of high sensitivity as a weakness. However it is actually a strength, and it is essential for health.
Sensory games are fun. Even better, they’re powerful transformational exercises. Put them in your handy toolbox of tricks when you or someone you know needs help. Use them when you feel confused, have an accident, or are preparing for an important meeting. They can help dissolve fear, anger, or pain in moments. Use these tools anytime, at the post office, in the car, in the bathroom, or show them to a child to restore balance and immediately improve the body’s level of functioning.
Some of these games come from ancient traditions such as Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Native American practices. They’re perfect for modern times too. These games are fun for kids, and will keep you feeling young and vital at any age!
