How's your body? How's your mind?
In this episode, we dive into one of the most important routines in Alec’s daily life: sitting down at the start of each shift with his team member to plan out their time together. This isn’t just a schedule—it’s a thoughtful, intentional way to make sure Alec is engaging both his body and his mind in meaningful ways.
We talk about the parameters we’ve set to help guide those daily plans and create a well-rounded routine. From going to the gym and moving his body in new ways, to doing chores at home, visiting a museum, going to the movies, or bowling—each activity serves a purpose. It’s about building structure, variety, and joy into Alec’s day while supporting his independence and personal growth.
We hope this gives you ideas for how to shape daily routines for your own child or loved one—routines that honor their interests, challenge their abilities, and support both their physical and emotional well-being.
