The Neuroscience of Feelings: Brain-Heart Connectivity in Neurodegenerative Diseases focuses on exploring the complex interplay between emotions and brain function, covering topics such as how positive and negative feelings impact brain cell regeneration, the influence of emotions on decision-making, and the role of emotional trauma in brain health. The book aims to provide comprehensive insights into how different emotions shape neurological processes, contributing to mental and physical health.The Neuroscience of Feelings: Brain-Heart Connectivity in Neurodegenerative Diseases, explores the critical link between cardiovascular health and brain function. Leading researchers delve into heart-brain interactions, autonomic nervous system dysregulation, emotional stress, and therapeutic implications for conditions like Parkinson’s and cognitive decline. This book offers essential insights for neuroscientists, cardiologists, clinicians, and anyone interested in the intersection of heart and brain health.
