Description

 

What are the Interoception Olympic Cards?

Enhancing interoceptive awareness is beneficial for for most people, but knowing how to start and what to do can be challenging. The Interoception Olympic Activity Cards offer practical activities for helping people connect with their body signals. These cards incorporate Olympic sports activities with interoception prompts, making them a fun and effective practice strategy, especially within the comprehensive framework provided in The Interoception Curriculum. If you do not have The Interoception Curriculum, these cards can also be used as a standalone tool.

How are the Interoception Olympic Activity Cards different from the other interoception card decks (e.g., the Interoception Exercise Cards, Interoception Yoga Cards and Interoception Activity Cards)?

Just like all our other interoception card decks, the Interoception Olympic Activity Cards provide activity ideas that are designed to evoke body sensations in a fun manner to provide practice mindfully noticing and describing body sensations. What makes them unique is the fun Olympic sports theme, providing a game-like feel. Add all new interoception-building ideas by adding this card deck to your library today!

Who can I use the Interoception Olympic Activity Cards with?

  • Everyone: Building interoception is good for all of us. Use them with your clients, loved ones or for your own self-care!
  • Ages: A variety of ages from preschool through adulthood.
  • Communication: The cards can be adapted for use with a variety of communication styles. For example, if using the cards with a learner that does not speak to communicate, use the Descriptor Menus from The Interoception Curriculum to help the learner find/point to words to describe what they experience. Or provide a copy of the Body Check Ring which can be a helpful and compact visual and communication support to use in conjunction with The Interoception Activity Olympic Cards. Or finally, a response is not required. Use the exercise and prompts on the cards to guide the learner to notice how their hands feel without requiring a response.

Where can the Interoception Olympic Activity Cards be used?

The Interoception Olympic Activity Cards can be used in any safe and comfortable location for exercise practice. Suitable settings include classrooms, therapy clinics, back yards, mental health facilities, and exercise studios. The cards can be implemented in one-on-one sessions, small groups, family settings, and large classes.

How can the Interoception Olympic Activity Cards support The Interoception Curriculum?

The Interoception Olympic Activity Cards are designed to complement Section 1 of  The Interoception Curriculum, enhancing a learner’s interoception discovery. Use these cards as additional positive practice opportunities for noticing and describing body signals.
