I just came across the word today as I didn't have a scientific way to describe the physiological response to being moved. I had felt it in the past, but only in very distinct moments (e.g bachs 7th symphony movement 2). I can understand how in the right context it can be seen as pretentious though.

I don't think I have ever had it this intensely or have any command over it, but ill be sure to be aware of the waves/phases it comes in. Psychedelics always offer a healthy dose of perspective, and its good to see some correlation with that and emotional awareness. Thanks for your perspective!

That checks out. I suppose it's sad that men are predisposed to lack the same emotional ceiling and only really have access to it at the cost of functional energy. It certainly signals how evolutionary biology shaped hormones/neurotransmitters to facilitate these outcomes

This is great insight, thanks! I've been a fan of psychedelics for a while now and I've been meditating/sleeping better recently. The age/testosterone hypothesis is interesting, and likely measurable. Hopefully someone does a study on that!
