You don't feel with your heart. Feelings and emotions are stored in your brain.
You don't think with your head. You think with your brain, which is inside your head.
You see with your eyes and hear with your ears, but your eyes must send a message to your brain in order for you to see, and your ears must send a message to your brain in order for you to hear.
Your brain weighs 2 percent of your total body weight. It uses 20 percent of your body's energy.
