Did you know that besides the physical heart you also have an emotional heart?

The emotional heart is, as the name says, strongly connected to emotions. The emotional heart is the central wisdom of feeling, with its own little brain or cardiac nervous system made up of neurons similar to those in the brain. The heart has its own intelligence and the neurological system and its electromagnetic field is much more powerful than the brain’s. The health of the physical heart also depends on the state of the emotional heart.

Emotions like love, anger, sadness, depression, loneliness, hostility, hate, despair, and grief can affect the function and rhythms of your heart.

What is emotional heart attack?

Emotional heart attack or broken heart syndrome is a condition with symptoms that may feel like a heart attack, chest pain, shortness of breath, and irregular heartbeat. This condition is usually caused by the emotional stress, trauma, or sudden death of someone you love. Sometimes we become more emotional when we go through difficult or stressful times.
