[Fis] EMOTIONAL STIMULUS IS PHYSICAL

[Katherine Peil]

Hi All,
For the record, emotion is fully embodied. That said, there are likely quantum processes involved as well (as in olfaction, respiration, light harvesting, etc.) as the capacity for emotional sentience emerged very early on in our single-celled ancestors. So the stimulus is likely more deeply rooted in the electromagnetic fields, and the “awareness” of it from wave interference and harmonic resonance. So I am in fully agreement with Gordana as well. The reason it seems “subtle” or “non-physical” is that is comes through the body from the bottom-up, processes that are “unconscious” at our level of scale. The binary valence as it erupts into our awareness during “self-relevant” changes, however, speaks across levels.
With all due respect for Jame Gross’ body of work: Once transcending neurocentrism and Cartesian dualism, emotion is actually regulating us!
