If you've ever been heartbroken and literally felt it in your chest, there may have been more to it than you thought.
A study has proved that emotions affect the body in different and distinctive ways, which are perhaps the root of such descriptions as being heavy with sadness or hot-headed with anger.
Sadness drains our energy and weakens our limbs. We feel it in our chests - and hearts.
Anger has the opposite effect, making us more aware of our head and arms than usual, perhaps because we are subconsciously squaring up for a fight.
Depression also leaves us weak, while disgust is felt in the throat and digestive system.
