Emotions Are a Key Link Between Brain and Body

A recently published book, The Spiritual Anatomy of Emotion: How Feelings Link the Brain, the Body, and the Sixth Sense, offers us a new way to think about the relationships among mind, body, emotions, illness, and health. It describes the way the natural flow of emotions, based on the energetic processes of the body, is related to immunity, stress reactions, and various health-related conditions.
