    "To tune in to this sense, get touchy and marvel at touching your lover’s skin, savour the hugs you get from loved ones, find joy in textures like velvet, pet animals in the street if you have to, give or get a massage! Lay in a bath, close your eyes and focus on how the water feels on your skin, body part by body part — your neck, your face, the tip of your nose, your lips. For what is life without the sense of touch, but numb."

    ... yes, touch is a crucial sense that often gets snubbed by the more domineering senses like sight and hearing...

    Good touch releases brain chemicals that elevate mood and relieve pain....
