Althea W. Larson, Occupational Therapist

As a pediatric occupational therapist, I often suggest using weighted blankets for families with children who have sensory processing difficulties. Recently, I worked with a family whose child had trouble calming down and relaxing before bed. After using a weighted blanket, the child became calmer and fell asleep faster, leading to a better night’s sleep. Weighted blankets aren’t just for children though; they can benefit anyone experiencing stress or anxiety. The pressure from the blanket can have a calming effect, almost like a hug. Dream Reality’s weighted blanket is a great all-natural option, made with a soft plush exterior for a cozy feel. It’s hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and BPA-free with balanced weight distribution for even pressure. The double stitching ensures no leakage. Additionally, the blanket comes with an eye mask, earplugs, and a bonus ebook for even better sleep quality. Each purchase supports a mental health charity.

My name is Adi, and I am the proud parent of Saar, a lively 17-year-old who happens to have autism. I have created a blog, 101Autism.com, with the aim to share our family's journey and offer guidance to those who may be going through similar experiences. Saar, much like any other teenager, has a passion for football, cycling, and music. He is also a budding pianist and enjoys painting. However, his world is somewhat distinct. Loud sounds can be overwhelming, sudden changes can be unsettling, and understanding emotions can be challenging. Nevertheless, Saar is constantly learning and growing, and his unwavering resilience is truly remarkable.
