Body Intelligence – Dive deeper, 1: sensory hands

by | Jun 6, 2025

Did you ever think of your hands as sensory organs? Try this cool exercise: next time you are using your hands to reach for something or grab something from where your eyes can’t reach, like the back of a drawer or a cabinet, close your eyes and observe how that immediately shifts your focus into your hands. If you really pay attention you will find that it’s like a switch, eyes off, hands on, eyes on, hands off. The palms of our hands are great at sending information to the brain about the environment. Now, start tuning in!
