This fMRI study investigated how the neural processing of visceral expressions of emotion (e.g., 'heart fell apart') differs from that of general emotion labels non-specific to the body, and aims to contribute evidence for a more concrete picture of how language and bodily sensations work together to give rise to emotional experience.
