Join us for a free 1-hour webinar to explore the Sensory Work Style Assessment Profile (SWAP) – a new tool that helps individuals and teams optimise performance, wellbeing, and work environments based on their sensory preferences.
The definition of a sensory threshold is how quickly and intensely we register information. And that is exactly what learning is.
‘One cannot study the structure of the eye and deny the existence of God.’
Opening lines used by my Anatomy and Opthalmology professors respectively, and it certainly got me paying attention, processing, and remembering.

I hope you feel restored, renewed, and ready for a happy and fulfilling new year. If you feel slightly flat, self-activation is possible.
Most of us were raised with the misconception that academic success was for the brainy, “the smart”. In fact, the process of studying is a sensory task.

Whether you are presenting a paper, competing as a top athlete, leading an important meeting, or writing an exam – preparation is key.
Is it possible that our perceived unimportant and fluffy sensory needs, are in desperate and urgent need of scientific re-regulation?
Sensory Neuroscience may sound abstract and complex, but is really simple to understand when we focus on the three main structures in the brain involved with emotional regulation and activation for productivity. “Calm, yet alert”.
