Bodily feedback
Bodily feedback, also known as physiological feedback, refers to the process where your body sends information about its internal states to your brain through signals like muscle tension, heart rate, and breathing. These signals help your brain understand how you're feeling physically, which can influence your emotions and reactions. For example, relaxed muscles and slow breathing can make you feel calm, while rapid heartbeat and tense muscles might signal stress. This ongoing communication between your body and brain helps regulate your emotional responses and enables you to become aware of your physical and mental states.
