Brain Sense
Brain sense consulting offers sensory awareness and self-management – unpacking sensory style to optimize health, wellness and productivity. It makes use of sensory science to create self-awareness in individuals, families, teams, and organizations.
Brain sense gently guides individuals and teams toward scientific sensory self-care, sensory stress management, optimal levels of brain arousal, and meaningful relationships. Brain sense also analyze and design environments to ensure optimal wellbeing and productivity at work and at home.
Brain sense will help you make sense of your sensory style. Unpack your sensory profile to create awareness around your sensory needs, habits, rituals and behavioral patterns. Sensory self-management impacts emotions, behavior and productivity. If you take care of your sensory self, you can live a healthier, happier and more productive life. Self-awareness will lead to team awareness and improved relationships at work and at home.
Sensory coaching will shed light on your quirky sensory self, and empower you to make use of scientific self-care to increase productivity. Individual and group coaching will improve both self-awareness and team awareness to focus on neurodiversity for team cohesion.
Sensory workshops will equip teams with the sensory know-how around self-care, stress management, productivity level management, how to deal with open plan office etiquette, how to be mentally sharp at 3pm, and how to embrace neurodiversity in teams, etc.
We can assess and assist with workspace and home design for optimal health and self-management. Through scientific sensory profiling, sensory design according to neurological thresholds will create environments conducive to wellbeing and productivity.
Student sensory styles are assessed to empower them to manage their emotions, tweak behaviour, and improve concentration and learning. Students are equipped to optimise all 5 steps of learning for academic success. We can all excel academically, we just need to know how.
“The easiest – and most powerful – way to access your brain is through the senses. Think of the senses as entry points into your brain to reset emotions and clear your mind.”
About
Ida Doyer
Ida is a sensory integration occupational therapist who has worked in the clinical and consulting fields for over 25 years. Sensory systems is her absolute passion and expertise.
When a sensory system is “fed and nourished” with the right sensory input, an individual can flourish, focus, and fly. Each sensory modality can either energize or calm the nervous system. It is up to us to discover, through sensory profiling and awareness, when we need what kind of sensation. It is the most exciting journey to explore and embrace sensory science. When we feel calm alert on a bottom brain level, we can access higher brain structures for creativity and deep thinking.
Through the senses Ida coaches her clients to access emotion, behavior and productivity levels, and reset brain energy making use of alerting or calming sensory strategies.
Coaching for individuals, families, and teams, is a gentle, non-threatening and fun experience where sensory selves are discovered and celebrated. Team cohesion, as well as company culture and morale can be impacted powerfully once neurodiversity on a sensory level is accepted and acknowledged.
Ida loves design and feels passionate about work- and home spaces conducive to flow, positive energy and productivity. Once sensory profiles have been assessed, scientific and mindful design around sensory needs can be embarked upon.

“Every space and building has a unique sensory fingerprint, much like us as individuals. The spaces we dwell in and work at, need to consider neurological wiring and sensory needs, and people will happily return again and again, without ever realizing why. The smallest change on a sensory level, can make the world of difference.”
