What are neurodivergent processes?

Neurodivergent processes are ways our brains work that might be different from what most people expect.

Imagine you have a toy box full of toys, each one is special and does something unique. Some toys stack up high, some roll across the floor, and others light up or make noise. Now think about your brain as a big toy box too. Most kids use certain toys in certain ways, but neurodivergent processes mean you might pick different toys, play with them in new ways, or even invent brand-new games.

Sometimes, when you're on the playground, you might find a swing that feels just right for you, maybe it's the one that sways slowly or the one near the slide. For some kids, the usual swings are just fine, but for others, they need something special to feel comfortable and happy.

That’s what neurodivergent processes can be like, your brain has its own favorite toys and playgrounds, which help you learn, think, and feel in ways that are perfectly normal for you.
