Not every space is built for every brain.
If you’ve ever walked into a café and walked straight back out… or left a hair appointment more drained than when you arrived… or just wished the world came with a volume dial — you’re in the right place.
NeuroPlaces is a slow-growing blog and trusted collection of spaces, tips, and stories designed with neurodivergent people in mind. Not just for autism, ADHD, or any one label — but for anyone who’s ever felt the world is too loud, too bright, too fast, or just too much.
Here, I’ll be sharing:
- Reflections on places that feel calm, kind, or accommodating
- Simple guides to help you ask for what you need (without burning out)
- Suggestions from people who’ve found those rare, soft spaces worth celebrating
There’s no database here. No grand promises. Just a gentle, honest space — building one post, one story, and one suggestion at a time.
If you’d like to:
- Discover new ND-friendly spots
- Share a place that made you feel more at ease
- Or just receive new blog posts without noise or pressure…
You can join the Calm List or suggest a NeuroPlace — or just read along.
Thanks for being here from the start.
