Synesthesia is when any two or more senses of the human body or perceptual pathways are linked. When one sense is activated so is another.

The term sensation is used when referencing the process of sensing the environment through taste, touch, sound, smell, and sight (Goldstein, 2014). Moreover, it is the process that occurs once the sensory receptor experiences stimulation, which in turn produces nerve impulses that are sent to the brain to be processed in its raw form, then perception comes into play (Goldstein, 2014). Perception is used to describe the way people interpret these sensations and tries to make sense of everything around them on a daily basis. Perception is the occurrences of the brain

Synesthesia, or the blending of senses, is used very powerfully in this Lakota story. While the coyote is on Iktomi’s back he begins to “blue wink”. This intrigues the audience, as most have not heard of a blue wink before. The story then goes on to describe the origin of the phrase, creating a lesson about not being too prideful, within the lesson that encompasses the entire story. The use of synesthesia brings this lesson sandwich home by providing an interesting way of describing these prideful or childish moments, ensuring that the lesson will be remembered. Memorability is a goal of any trickster story as the primary motive is to impart

The human brain is the most complex organ in the body, the seat of who human beings are, and what they are. In the early 1800s, German physician Franz Joseph Gall suggested that different parts of the brain control specific aspects of behavior. Functions such as movement, memory, speech, and the overall behavior are controlled by localized parts of the brain. Unfortunately, recent research indicates that as people age, various mental skills decline at different rates. Furthermore, one of the mental diseases that affect mostly older people is dementia. Dementia is a syndrome (a group of related symptoms) associated with an ongoing decline of the brain and its abilities (1). It describes a set of symptoms that result in different types and treatments.
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder and it is defined by the diagnostic statistical manual of mental disorder (DSM-IV) as a term introduced by Bleuler, which refers to a persistent, often chronic and usually serious mental disorder affecting a variety of aspects of behavior, thinking, and emotion.

First the physiological response is when the mind becomes absorbed in and focused on a dominant idea and the nervous system is cut off from physical sensory input. The body exhibits reflex inertia, involuntary nervous responses, and frenzy. Emotional perception, another form of ecstasy, refers to overwhelming feelings of awe, anxiety, joy, sadness, fear, astonishment, passion, or any combination of intense emotion. Finally, intuitive perception occurs when there is an understanding of the transpersonal experience and expanded states of awareness or consciousness are possible. While the physiological response is always present, the emotional response and intuitive perception may not be within reach for all those who venture into ecstatic trance. Opposed to general hypnosis, practicing shamanic techniques uses self-hypnotic states to fine-tune senses and observe the inner-workings of ones mind semi-consciously. Research findings suggest that the contents of shamanic trance are not solely influenced by psychopathology, biochemical effects, or cultural influences; there is a spiritual variable that must be accounted for.
People with MS may experience unusual sensations in their body such as numbness and tingling.

While these different sensations and perceptions are different many of them do go together, this is called intermodal perception. This type of perception is the integration of two or more senses at one time. An example of this would be infant’s reaction to sound. When an infant hears a noise they turn their head and look in the general direction of the sound. Typically this integration of different perceptions is seen the most after the first six months of
