Feelings are the subjective, conscious experience of emotions. They are the "felt sense" — how we register and interpret our emotional state. Feelings arise from the integration of bodily sensations, cognitive appraisal, and social context.
Key Aspects
- •Subjective — personal, first-person experience
- •Integrated — body + mind + context
- •Relational — often tied to connection, belonging, meaning
- •Distinct from emotions — feelings are the conscious layer; emotions include unconscious physiological components
