PROPRIOCEPTION

Proprioception is our awareness of our body position in space without looking. For example, when sitting cross legged, we know where our legs are, how they are folded and where they are in relation to each other and the ground without looking. Another example is catching a ball, we use our proprioceptive system to give us feedback on how far out to stretch our arms when grabbing a ball and how to move our body in relation to each arm to catch the ball accurately with smoothness and adequate force.

VESTIBULAR SYSTEM

The sense of movement. Any type of movement stimulates the vestibular system through the vestibular receptors located in our inner ear. Spinning, swinging, hanging upside down (inversion) provide the most intense input.
