Decoding the Sensory World
Understanding how sensory integration builds a foundation for growth and belonging.
The Eight Senses
Sensory integration is the process by which we receive, organize, and respond to information from our environment and bodies.
Tactile
Touch System
Information through the skin about pressure, vibration, temperature, and pain.
Vestibular
Balance & Motion
Sensory receptors in the inner ear that detect movement and gravity changes.
Proprioceptive
Body Awareness
Sense of muscle and joint position, helping us know where our body parts are.
Visual
Sight System
Processing what we see, including color, movement, and spatial relationships.
Auditory
Hearing System
The ability to interpret sounds, volume, and the location of noise in space.
Olfactory
Smell System
Connecting scents to our brain's emotional and memory centers instantly.
Gustatory
Taste System
Detecting chemical signals on the tongue to identify flavor and texture.
Interoception
Internal Body
Sensations from internal organs like hunger, heart rate, and emotional state.
