In this episode I talk about some interesting things that I learned about Dr. Anna Jean Ayres and her discovery of sensory integration. I also reflect on my classmates presentation. Hope you enjoy!

Ayres defined sensory integration as the “neurological process that organizes sensations from one’s own body and from the environment and makes it possible to use the body effectively within the environment” (Bundy 2002).
