	The '''sense of life''' or '''life sense''' is one of the twelve physical [[sense]]s that [[Rudolf Steiner]] spoke of in his theory of the senses. Through the sense of life we perceive our general inner physical condition. The perception of inner organ activity, which normally remains largely unconscious, is today referred to in medicine as '''visceroception''' (from {{Latin\|viscera}} and {{lang\|la\|recipere}} "to take in"). It is mediated by corresponding visceroceptors, which are receptive to stimuli from the visceral system and the thoracic cavity. In this way, hunger, thirst, urge to urinate or visceral pain, for example, are perceived. The so-called "intuitive" '''gut feeling''' is also related to this.

	In [[medicine]], dull bodily sensations that are often difficult to localise are called '''coenaesthesis''' (from {{Greek\|κοινος}} ''koinos'' "general" and {{lang\|grc\|αἴσθησις}} ''aísthēsis'' "perception, sensation") or '''girdle sensation'''. Common synonymous terms are also: life feeling, body feeling, vital feeling or common feeling. Basically, it is a more or less general sensation or perception of one's own [[body]] and its state of being. Typical perceptions in this area are hunger, thirst, nausea, nausea, urge to urinate, sexual arousal, etc. In various mental disorders, coenaesthesia can also occur as [[hallucination]]s.

New page

The '''sense of life''' or '''life sense''' is one of the twelve physical [[sense]]s that [[Rudolf Steiner]] spoke of in his theory of the senses. Through the sense of life we perceive our general inner physical condition. The perception of inner organ activity, which normally remains largely unconscious, is today referred to in medicine as '''visceroception''' (from {{Latin|viscera}} and {{lang|la|recipere}} "to take in"). It is mediated by corresponding visceroceptors, which are receptive to stimuli from the visceral system and the thoracic cavity. In this way, hunger, thirst, urge to urinate or visceral pain, for example, are perceived. The so-called "intuitive" '''gut feeling''' is also related to this.

Since disturbances of the body's activity are often also expressed in more or less specific pain experiences, one can also speak of the '''sense of pain'''. Tissue damage and injuries caused by mechanical, thermal and chemical effects are registered by the free sensory nerve endings of corresponding nociceptors (from {{Latin|nocere}} "to harm"), which are present in almost every tissue of the human body.
