A busy brain already has a lot on its mind and doesn't find it easy to add any more. With an overloadedmind it's hard to think straight or pay attention. You find yourself getting tired and angry easily, whichstops you explaining clearly what you want to say. As a result working or playing together becomesmore difficult. Some minds are naturally like this and fill up quickly. This book refers to them as "easilyoverloaded minds".The book is intended, and especially written for children aged 8 and over that have to deal with aneasily overloaded mind. It also looks to provide advice to the adults who support them. It aims toexplain information processing issues in the brain on a level that is understandable and accessiblefor children as well as the impact of this on their social-emotional development and self-image. "Shortfuses', inflexibility, inattention, distractibility, forgetfulness, impulsiveness and a slow responsivenessin a child's behaviour can become major sources of irritation and annoyance within their environment.This behaviour will cause a mutual lack of understanding in both communication and discussionbetween the child, other children and/or adults.For this reason, the book focuses on psycho-education: "How do I take care of myself now I know mymind works like this, and how can others help and support me with that'. The book provides plentyof practical examples and metaphors for both children and adults. Thanks to the explanations beingpaired with illustrations, tips, (fill-in) exercises and tests, this book is a playful invitation to link thecontent to your own experiences. The easily accessible and practical aspect of the book will be asource of inspiration, encouragement and recognition for both experience experts and professionals ineducation and care.
