As predicted, during cerebral processing of emotions, imaging in the PP group demonstrated a greater engagement of the posterior insula, which is involved in mapping of internal bodily and subjective feeling states.
In part, the pre-established harmony consists in the isomorphic mapping of perceptions and bodily motions.
According to the authors, these findings suggest that the visual-tactile mechanism critical for mapping one's own bodily space might also be used for mapping the bodily space of others, thus providing an interpersonal bodily space representation [23].

Think of the worst kind of bodily function possible.
Earlier neuropsychological [20] and behavioural [21], [22] studies showed that a visuo-tactile mapping can be found in humans at the level of bodily (or personal) space.
Indeed, they show that the mapping of one's own and others' bodily spaces may occur also at the level of the arm reaching space.
It was a life of bodily immediacy.
For James, the emotions are not the bodily processes but the perception of bodily processes.
True, this account of bodily action sounded a bit peculiar.
