In psychology, a section of kinesthetics is distinguished, which deals with the description of sensitivity: tactile, internal sensations, feelings of smell or taste, meta-sensations. There are certain ways to develop sensitivity.
Instructions
Step 1
To develop tactile sensitivity, take five different textures of materials. For example, it can be five pieces of different fabric or pieces of paper. Blindly try to define their qualities: smooth, rough. Once you have learned to unmistakably determine the properties of the material, move on to a more complex level of tactile sensations. Take coins of different denominations and also blindly try to determine their denomination.
Step 2
The exercise "scales" will help to develop the sensitivity of internal sensations. To do this, take a scale and several objects of different weight. Take these items one at a time and try to determine their weight. Weigh these samples on a balance to find out your sensitivity results. First, take items that vary greatly in weight. For example, three hundred grams, half a kilogram and eight hundred grams. As you learn to distinguish between this weight, reduce the weight difference and the weight of the items themselves.
Step 3
Meta-sensations develop at the level of the emotions that you experienced about this feeling. Remember a feeling and describe its qualities, the body's reactions associated with it. Determine what emotions you have about this feeling. For example, fear is sharp, cold, pulling, accompanied by tremors, sweating, the mood worsens.
Step 4
In order to develop your senses of taste and smell, concentrate only on the smell or only on the taste. To better concentrate on the smell, close your eyes with a thick cloth, "disconnect" from the external noise and try to understand the basis of the smell, its shades, trail. To develop your sense of taste, also close your eyes, if possible, your nose to avoid smelling, and try several significantly different foods. Determine the qualities of the main taste, its shades, the consistency of the food. Also use more similar smells and tastes to increase the level.
