The autism diagnosis process is long, difficult, and full of stress. That’s why I created this quick,  7-minute guided meditation where I help you release stress, and get back to a place of calm.

Perfect for listening to after you get done filling out a bunch of paperwork, getting off the phone with your insurance company, or when you feel like the process will never be done…

Check it out, and leave a comment below letting me know how you felt after listening!
