💙 Golden Rule

Many people with Autism Level 2 are sensitive to:

🔊 Noise
💡 Light
👀 Visual clutter
👕 Touch / texture
👃 Smell

Too much input = overload.
Less input = learning.

Try it:

✅ Lower TV/music
✅ Close doors/windows
✅ Use quiet rooms
✅ Speak softly

Helpful tools:
🎧 Noise-cancelling headphones
🎵 Soft background sound (optional)

Avoid sudden loud noises.

Avoid harsh light.

Use:

✅ Lamps instead of ceiling lights
✅ Warm bulbs
✅ Curtains/blinds
✅ Natural light

Avoid flickering lights.

Too many things = stress.

You will say:

✅ Clear desk/table
✅ One task visible
✅ Simple posters
✅ Neutral colors

Before tasks → tidy area.

Many are sensitive to:

❌ Tags
❌ Tight seams
❌ Rough fabrics

Choose:

✅ Soft cotton
✅ Loose fit
✅ Tag-free clothes
✅ Favorite textures

Let me choose when possible.

Strong smells can overwhelm.

Avoid:

❌ Perfume
❌ Strong cleaners
❌ Food smells during work

Use:

✅ Fresh air
✅ Mild soap

Every setting should have one.

Includes:

🧸 Soft cushion
🎧 Headphones
📖 Book
🛌 Blanket
💡 Low light
😌 Calm cards

Use anytime. No punishment.

Prevent overload:

Every 30–60 minutes:

✔️ Walk
✔️ Stretch
✔️ Drink water
✔️ Quiet sit

5 minutes is enough.

Ask:

🔹 Too loud?
🔹 Too bright?
🔹 Too busy?
🔹 Too uncomfortable?

Fix first → then start.

Use this:

🟦 I NEED:
☐ Quiet
☐ Dim light
☐ Break
☐ Headphones
☐ Space

Point instead of speaking.

Watch for:

😣 Covering ears
😵 Pacing
🙈 Avoiding eye contact
😤 Irritable
😶 Silent

Act early = calm outcome.

With reduced sensory load:

✅ Better focus
✅ Less anxiety
✅ Better sleep

A calm environment builds a calm mind 🌱
 

Supporting sensory needs is supporting success.

Clear structure helps with:

✅ Better focus
✅ Less stress

When expectations are clear, the mind feels safe.

"Wash dishes"
 

One task only.

Break into steps:

Example: Pack bag
✔️ Books
✔️ Pencil case
✔️ Bottle
✔️ Zip bag

Write or show with pictures.

Define the ending:

"All items inside"
"All questions answered"
"Sink empty"
 

No guessing.

Show what comes next:

"Then music"
"Then free time"
 

This reduces worry.
