Hi, I'm Melinda
I can’t emphasize enough the value of understanding and working with people’s different sensory processing styles. In my 25 years of facilitating and training, it’s been the key to connecting, reaching, and truly comprehending others.
Before I was aware of sensory processing styles, I wondered why I struggled with how some people communicated with me. I could not get my head around the way they shared information, how they missed information out, the descriptors they used, even the words they used and especially the way they put it across.
I would get frustrated, impatient and judgemental.
I was intolerant of the differences in how others perceived, interpreted and processed the world.
So I focused on understanding the differences and expanding my ability to access all of the sensory processing approaches, not just relying on my preferred style. This allowed me to effortlessly adapt my communication to match how others best received and processed information.
What was exciting was, my interactions became so much more meaningful, productive, and transformative. Plus, I became way more accepting and compassionate towards others.
And you know what? I even found myself able to step into the world of those who others couldn’t understand. By embracing their unique way of processing information, I found myself communicating with people in a truly distinctive and almost spiritual way.
