Body State/ Body Map

Damasia says that a body state is a physical aspect of how the body feels vs the body map which is the precise map of what is occurring in the body at any given moment in the body-sensing regions. The body state is the emotion or state of which your body is in due to a triggering situation, and the body map determines the feeling. An example of this is when we surprise someone, their body state is shocked and surprised, while the body map would describe the how the heart rate goes up when a person is feeling surprised or in shock.
