The 8 Senses
We all know the 5 basic senses: Sight, Hearing, Tactile, Taste and Smell. But we actually have 8. What are the others?
Interoception: internal sense, such as hunger, thirst, pain, etc. Interoception is the ability to register and interpret our own bodily/emotional state. This does not mean that we do not feel it, but that we have difficulty identifying, processing and communicating emotional/body states.
Proprioception: awareness of body position in space and applied force.
Vestibular: sense of movement and balance.
