If you've ever wondered where your precious energy vanishes whilst simply tending to the basic stuff of life, this fabulously informative and practical guide will most certainly help you plug any leaks and top yourself back up again.
Maja and Tony have written a fantastically comprehensive guide to managing wellbeing for autistic people of all ages. Full of facts, science, explanations, graphs, practical guidance and worksheets, it is an autistic person's dream! An extremely valuable resource for autistic people and those who care for and support them.
Many daily activities that are 'a walk in the park' for non-autistic people are like an Olympic discipline for autistic people, requiring a lot of dedication and effort. It makes taking care of the energy balance a top priority. This book is a very welcome and highly recommended guide to energy accounting for all those autistic people practicing the intensive top-class sport of navigating an unpredictable, confusing and challenging world.
