Dokunmanın Gücü Üzerine

Touch has a unique importance in human relationships, especially in establishing bonds of intimacy and trust. It nourishes, heals, and instills a fresh courage to live. It is an experience that is both light as a feather and extremely effective. Maybe before you even think about it, it is the basic thing that makes a human being. Touch is an essential element of a fulfilling life. Its deficiency can become painful deprivation. On the other hand, even the thought of forced touching is frightening, violent and harms the person touched. So, who touches whom and when is it legitimate and appropriate? Where should a limit be set? What does touch mean to lovers? What does it mean to touch someone's soul? What role does touch have in baby and child development? How does hugging strengthen one's immune system? What are the ways to mentally touch someone else? Is breathing, in a way, touching the world? Why do we touch our face without realizing it when we are afraid or anxious? What is touch's connection to hormones? What do we call “touching”? Is art a form of touching others? In On the Power of Touch, beloved philosopher Wilhelm Schmid discusses a concept that is vital for the human species, both biologically and socially. The author suggests once again thinking in detail about the power of touch in our lives evolving from analog to digital.
