What are the feelings, sensations and emotions of a person? This is the question we decided to devote to today's article. Indeed, without these components, we would not be people, but machines that do not live, but simply exist.
What are the senses?
As you know, a person learns all the information about the world through his own senses. These include the following:
- eyes;
- ears
- tongue;
- nose;
- leather.
Thanks to these organs, people feel and see the objects around them, as well as hear sounds and feel the taste. It should be noted that this is not a complete list. Although it is customary to call it the main one. So what are the feelings and sensations of a person whose function is not only the above, but also other organs? Consider the answer to this question in more detail.
Eyes
The sensations of vision, or rather color and light, are the most numerous and diverse. Thanks to the presented body, people receive about 70% of environmental information. Scientists have found that the number of visual sensations (various qualities) of an adult, on average, reaches 35 thousand. It should also be noted that it is vision that plays a significant role in the perception of space. As for the sensation of color, it completely depends on the length of the light wave that irritates the retina, and the intensity on its amplitude or the so-called magnitude.
The ears
Hearing (tones and noises) gives a person about 20 thousand different states of consciousness. This feeling is caused by air waves that come from the sounding body. Its quality depends entirely on the magnitude of the wave, strength on amplitude, and timbre (or sound coloring) on form.
Nose
The sensations of smell are quite diverse, and they are very difficult to classify. They occur with irritation of the upper part of the nasal cavity, as well as the mucous membrane of the palate. This effect occurs due to the dissolution of the smallest odorous substances.
Tongue
Thanks to this organ, a person can distinguish between different tastes, namely sweet, salty, sour and bitter.
Leather
Tactile sensations break up into feelings of pressure, pain, temperature, and so on. They occur during irritation of nerve endings located in the tissues, which have a special structure.
What kind of feelings does a person have? In addition to all of the above, people have feelings such as:
- Static (the position of the body in space and a sense of its balance). This feeling occurs during irritation of the nerve endings that are located in the semicircular canals of the ear.
- Muscular, articular and tendon. They are very difficult to observe, but they are in the nature of internal pressure, tension, and even sliding.
- Organic or somatic. Such feelings include hunger, nausea, sensations of breathing, sex drive, and so on.
What are the feelings and emotions?
Emotions and inner feelings of a person reflect his attitude to any event or situation in life. Moreover, the two named states are quite different from each other. So, emotions are a direct reaction to something. It happens on an animal level. As for the senses, this is a product of thinking, accumulated experience, experiences, etc.
What kind of feelings does a person have? It is rather difficult to answer clearly the question posed. After all, people have a lot of feelings and emotions. They give the person information about the needs, as well as feedback on what is happening. Thanks to this, people can understand what they are doing right and what are wrong. After realizing the feelings that have arisen, a person gives himself the right to any emotion, and thereby he begins to understand what is happening in reality.

Now you know what feelings a person has. Someone more, some less, but each of us at least once in our life experienced them on ourselves. Negative emotions that are ignored and not realized by us do not disappear just like that. After all, the body and soul are one, and if the latter suffers for a long time, the body takes on some part of its heavy burden. And it is not in vain that they say that all diseases are from nerves. The effect of negative emotions on human well-being and health has long been a scientific fact. As for the positive feelings, the benefits of them are clear to everyone. Indeed, experiencing joy, happiness and other emotions, a person literally fixes in his memory the desired types of behavior (feelings of success, prosperity, trust in the world, people around him, etc.).
Neutral feelings also help people express their attitude to what they see, hear and so on. By the way, such emotions can act as a springboard to further positive or negative manifestations.
Thus, by analyzing one’s behavior and attitude towards events, a person can become better, worse or stay the same. It is these properties that distinguish humans from animals.
