Synaesthesia
… is a neurological trait in which the senses cross. There are around 100 different recognised forms, and it manifests differently for every synaesthete. Synaesthesia is a form of neurodivergence, a normal part of the variety of the human brain. Some really appreciate having synaesthesia, for many it goes unnoticed, and others have a hard time finding their ways to live with their merged sensory experiences.
I experience over 10 different forms myself: music, pain, touch and smell are all colourful to me. I see subtitles when people speak and can watch my thoughts as shapes and forms in my mind’s eye!
Over the past few years, I have spent a lot of time understanding my own and other people’s synaesthesia, and you might have come across some of my work in a newspaper or on a short TV segment.
I decided to make the knowledge I’ve gathered accessible by writing The Synaesthesia Handbook, which you can purchase here. If you’re looking for more in-depth 1:1 support, I’m more than happy to get to know your story. Please book your call here.
