Do Tell: What's Your Favorite Smell?
When I asked you all which of your 5 senses you would sacrifice for a year, giving up your sense of smell was the second runner up with taste taking the lead by a mere 5%. I happen to think the sense of smell is one of the most powerful senses. A smell can instantaneously bring back memories, you can recognize someone by his or her smell, and life wouldn't be all that worth living if we didn't take a little time to stop and smell the roses every now and again!
Pillow Talk: Good Taste
Today concludes our posts about your 5 senses. Our tongue is equipped with over 10,000 taste buds, busy sending messages to our brains about things bitter, sweet, sour, or salty. Whether or not you like your meals spicy, food provides many opportunities to spice things up.

Pillow Talk: Seeing With Fresh Eyes
The next 5 Pillow Talks will be dedicated to our 5 senses and the roles they play in our lives. The senses are the body's way of perceiving and interpreting the external world for us.

Dear Poll: Coming to Our Senses
When we're busy, tired or overwhelmed, it's easy to become less aware of our surroundings, less connected to ourselves or others, and less tuned in to our pleasures. But our 5 senses act as the conduits for comfort, contact and enjoyment, and we rob ourselves of many rich experiences when our awareness strays.
For the rest of today, try to notice the sensual information around you.

Politicians, Narcissism and Cheating — Oh, My!
There's been no shortage of politicians in the news who cheated on their wives (Sanford, Spitzer, Clinton — we're talking about you), and the television show The Good Wife is even dramatizing this all-too-familiar story. Most social scientists and psychologists are not surprised; many of the traits that are required for political leadership are prevalent in narcissism: ambition, risk-taking, and charisma. You don't need to be a narcissist to be a political leader, but it doesn't hurt.
