9 Mind-Bending Epiphanies That Turned My World Upside-Down | Raptitude.com Over the years I’ve learned dozens of little tricks and insights for making life more fulfilling.

But the major breakthroughs have come from a handful of insights that completely rocked my world and redefined reality forever. The world now seems to be a completely different one than the one I lived in about ten years ago, when I started looking into the mechanics of quality of life. Maybe you’ve had some of the same insights. 1. The first time I heard somebody say that — in the opening chapter of The Power of Now — I didn’t like the sound of it one bit. I see quite clearly now that life is nothing but passing experiences, and my thoughts are just one more category of things I experience.

Every day, users share their thought-provoking life stories and vote on stories that other users have shared.

The Definition of Love & Thought Catalog You can stop taking quizzes in Cosmo. Here’s what love really is. Love is still wanting to hold someone after you climax. After the initial euphoria from the orgasm wears off, you’re replaced with a sense of calm rather than a panic. You don’t want to search for your clothes, scramble to find your keys and figure out the best way to tell them, “See ya later forever!” Love is unattractive. Love is not afraid to be schmaltzy. Love is an all-consuming drug. Love is not what our parents had. Love is getting drunk with your significant other at a party and taking a cab home with your bodies intertwined. Love is fucking stupid. Love is your significant other telling you about their favorite album and then making a point to fall in love with it on your own. Love is finding yourself feeling protective over someone else’s well-being Love is being incensed with rage when someone or something has done your lover wrong. Love is wanting your partner to cum. Love isn’t always marriage. So, yeah.

10 Psychological Effects of Nonsexual Touch A simple (nonsexual) touch can increase compliance, helping behaviour, attraction, and signal power. To get around in the world, we mainly rely on our eyes and ears. Touch is a sense that’s often forgotten. But touch is also vital in the way we understand and experience the world. Even the lightest touch on the upper arm can influence the way we think. To prove it, here are 10 psychological effects which show just how powerful nonsexual touch can be. 1. A well-timed touch can encourage other people to return a lost item. In one experiment, users of a phone booth who were touched were more likely to return a lost dime to an experimenter (Kleinke, 1977). The action was no more than a light touch on the arm. People will do more than that though; people will give a bigger tip to a waitress who has touched them (Crusco & Wetzel, 1984). (Stop giggling at the back there!) 2. People are also more likely to provide help when touched. The percentage of people who helped went up from 63% to 90%. 3. 4. 5. 6.
