How do you feel? Interoception: the sense of the physiological condition of the body.
TLDR
Functional anatomical work has detailed an afferent neural system in primates and in humans that represents all aspects of the physiological condition of the physical body that might provide a foundation for subjective feelings, emotion and self-awareness.Abstract:
As humans, we perceive feelings from our bodies that relate our state of well-being, our energy and stress levels, our mood and disposition. How do we have these feelings? What neural processes do they represent? Recent functional anatomical work has detailed an afferent neural system in primates and in humans that represents all aspects of the physiological condition of the physical body. This system constitutes a representation of 'the material me', and might provide a foundation for subjective feelings, emotion and self-awareness.read more

Sensing the body in chronic pain: A review of psychophysical studies implicating altered body representation
TL;DR: Three broad sensory systems are examined that form the foundations of the sense of physical self in patients with common chronic pain disorders: reweighting of proprioceptive information; altered sensitivity to exteroceptive stimuli; and disturbed interoceptive awareness of the state of the body.

Impact of transient emotions on functional connectivity during subsequent resting state: A wavelet correlation approach
TL;DR: Findings reveal specific neural circuits recruited during the recovery from emotional arousal and highlight the complex functional dynamics of default mode networks in emotionally salient contexts.

Intuition and Deliberation: Two Systems for Strategizing in the Brain
TL;DR: It is found that brain regions previously associated with deliberate and effortful reasoning are activated during dominance-solvable games, whereas other brain regions linked to social processing take the lead during coordination game playing.

The Principles of Psychology
TL;DR: For instance, the authors discusses the multiplicity of the consciousness of self in the form of the stream of thought and the perception of space in the human brain, which is the basis for our work.

Descartes' Error: Emotion, Reason, and the Human Brain
TL;DR: The authors argued that rational decisions are not the product of logic alone - they require the support of emotion and feeling, drawing on his experience with neurological patients affected with brain damage, Dr Damasio showed how absence of emotions and feelings can break down rationality.
