This quote by Lisa Feldman Barrett, a very well-known neuroscientist, captures the theme of this month perfectly. We can’t discuss emotions, emotional understanding or alexithymia without the recognition that emotions are directly related to our interoceptive bodily sensations.

Me too. Chasing the why and digging deeper!
