Kinesthetic
The 'K' in VAK: processing or representing experience through bodily feeling, movement, and emotion.
Kinesthetic processing covers both tactile sensations (texture, temperature, pressure) and proprioceptive ones (balance, posture, internal feeling). Kinesthetic predicates show up in client language as 'I feel stuck', 'this doesn't sit right', 'I'm reaching for the answer'. Kinesthetic clients often process more slowly and benefit from sessions that include movement or somatic anchors.
