What if we’re not responding to reality, but to our inner map of it? This course is Section D of Module 2: Discover Your Communication Style Main Learning Outcome After completing these lessons, participants will be able to: Understand how the brain processes sensory information through the five senses Recognize how internal filters (deletion, distortion, and generalization) shape perception Explain the concept of internal representation (the “map of the world”) Identify how perception directly influences thoughts, emotions, and behavior Develop greater awareness of their own inner sensory and mental processes Increase empathy and understanding of others’ behavior by recognizing perceptual differences General Content Summary This module explores how humans experience reality through their senses and how the brain transforms massive amounts of sensory data into an internal mental map of the world. Each lesson builds understanding of how perception is formed, filtered, and interpreted, emphasizing that we do not respond to reality itself, but to our representation of it. Participants learn how sensory input is processed internally, how personal filters influence meaning, and how these processes shape behavior and emotional responses. The lessons highlight that every individual’s experience of reality is subjective, shaped by unique internal processes—offering a powerful foundation for personal awareness, communication, and conscious change.
