Sensory Function

I've been wondering about all of my sensory functions and how the health of my human self depends largely on how well my senses are functioning.    With each step on my Journey of Transformation I acclimate to higher vibrational frequencies of human experience.  I keep acclimating to new avenues of perception of information that come through various senses and I am honoring this guidance with integration and action.  

Here are a few questions to consider:

What human sensory functions are you aware of?

Do you have senses that are beyond the normal 5?

Are you aware of sensory functions that you don’t have, but someone you know does?

How does your sensory functionality affect your ability to be in relationships?  (With other humans, animals, divine beings, nature…)

What increases sensory function?

What decreases sensory function?

What sensory information do you give the most credibility to?  

How does our language affect our awareness of sensory functions and our ability to instill this health in our children?  (By the mainstream choice of only identifying five senses, do we atrophy our other senses? HReow does this affect our decision making based on the information that we are perceiving?)

What decreases sensory function?

I remember one time when I unknowingly activated a computer scam by clicking on an ad.  My computer started flashing messages and there was an alarm going off.  The message said to not do anything on my computer, but to call Apple support immediately for assistance and they gave a phone number.   I was in a panic.  I called and the man pretended to walk me through actions that were supposedly helpful.  He convinced me to give him access to my computer to see what the problem was .   He then offered to solve my problem for a given amount of money.  

I paused, centered myself and took a couple deep breaths.  My ability to function immediately expanded.  I asked him for his name and phone number and I said I needed to hang up, think things through and that I would call him back shortly.    I then used my phone to research whether this was a scam and sure enough it was.  

I felt like such a smuck.  I consider myself to be a reasonably intelligent person.  How did I get taken in so quickly by this scam artist?  How did I completely lose my good senses?   A friend explained to me that these scam artists are experts at triggering fear in others.  Once fear is triggered, then you aren't operating from the higher parts of your brain and your senses, and you are vulnerable to their manipulation.  

Fear decreases sensory function as well as higher level thinking.
