  1. Part 1

    Name the loadName what is too much

    Sound, light, touch, smell, and how many things are happening at once are different loads. Write down the one that shows up most, instead of a general note that a place is “too much”.Sound, light, touch, smell, and busy places are different. Write down the one that is hardest.

  2. Part 2

    Change the room

    Headphones, a dimmer light, a predictable seat, or a quieter route are changes to the place. They are not a treatment and they do not need to be earned.Headphones, lower light, the same seat, or a quieter route change the place. They are not a treatment.
