Spelling to Communicate

 

Due to motor planning difficulties, traditional forms of communication are inaccessible for many with non verbal autism. Spelling to Communicate provides a way for individuals to learn the motor skills necessary to point to letters and spell with intentional accuracy as a form of communication. In person and online remote training are available in order to serve clients in remote areas who do not have access to trained communication partners and coaches.

Special Needs Yoga

 

“Pools of peace,” is what one client spelled after taking yoga.

Asher House provides one on one yoga sessions to improve spacial awareness, flexibility, body control, and relieve anxiety. Due to spatial awareness imbalance and the anxiety produced by a vestibular and proprioceptive system that do not operate properly, non verbal autistics are in great need of the benefits of yoga to help them feel their bodies and calm their anxiety. The calming, grounding impact of yoga on their overstressed parasympathetic nervous system can not be overstated.

Special Needs Fitness Training

 

Asher House provides one on one functional training to improve muscle tone, stamina, coordination, strength, and initiation of movement. The growth in these physical elements carries over into all other areas of their lives, specifically weight control and also reducing anxiety and stimulatory behaviors. Functional training also helps provide overall wellness and personal satisfaction as clients meet and exceed goals.

Environment

 

Autistics are very sensitive to their environment and negative environments can significantly increase their anxiety. Many people reside in unhealthy environments unable to determine the reason for their unsettledness. Fortunately, everyone benefits from energy cleansing.This service cleanses the atmosphere of a work or home area to improve the overall environment and encourage health and well being.

Energy Healing & Meditation

 

“You don’t have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body.” - C. S. Lewis

Quantum physicists have been gaining remarkable insight into the makeup of the universe. They have been able to confirm that the universe and everything in it, including us, is energy. The energy inside us, our soul, mirrors our physical body and is susceptible to fluctuations in energy as well as blockages. These blockages are often accompanied by lower vibrational energy. Lower vibrational energy exhibits itself during periods of grief, depression, stress, and trauma. Due to the tremendous anxiety, frustration, and trauma autistics and familiy members experience, energy healing provides a way to release these underlying tensions and the effects so the body can begin to heal. Available to autistics and neurotypicals, this service rebalances the chakras and improves energetic flow.

Support, Encouragement and Planning

 

Caring for a loved one with non-verbal autism is overwhelming. The most frightening question parents and those who can’t control their bodies face is facing the future. There is so much unknown after school and few good options for families. Asher House can assist with planning for ISP’s, researching and finding best treatment options, and finding the options that will ensure the end of school is not the end of life, but rather the beginning.

Asher House is committed to providing meaningful and applicable content for parents and individual affected in order to do one thing - Keep hope alive.
