Healing The Heart: Re-Claiming Thinking and Re-Visioning Emotion
March 24th, 2017
Contributing writer for Wake Up World
Our minds can be divisive when it comes to feeling our true feelings and emotional healing. We all know the feeling (ironically) of being made crazy by our thoughts. Yet, when employed skillfully, our minds are essential for these processes. Given that emotion has both a feeling component and a mental-cognitive aspect, both feeling and mind are needed for comprehensive, integral emotional healing.
Emotions are mediated not in our literal hearts inside our chest, but in the emotional center of our brain — the limbic system of our mid-brain, to be exact. This is the feeling part of our brain that orchestrates emotions in our body, including that sacred spot in our chest. So, when we use the word “heart” to describe our feelings and emotions, we do this based on what our experience feels like, because we feel emotions in the region of our chest.
But in reality, our “feeling heart” is in our brain, which triggers the release of hormones and neurotransmitters so that we viscerally feel emotion in our body. Emotions originate not in our chest or any other parts of our body beneath our anatomical head (which for now on I will just call “body” for simplicity), but in that mushy, fatty organ in our heads.
