As Seen
![The heart. The organ of life. Located in the centre of the chest.
An adult heart measures about the size of a clenched fist.
In 1653 the English physician William Harvey said: “The heart is situated at the 4th and 5th ribs. Therefore [it is] the principal part because [it is in] the principal place, as in the center of a circle, the middle of the necessary body.”
In Chinese medicine the heart is known as The Emperor. Every other organ works to serve it.
But do we serve it well? How well do we look after this precious gift of life.

Heartfelt emotions
“The heart has its reasons which reason knows not.”
― Blaise Pascal
The heart is the seat of emotions and in fact research shows that sorrow really can break your heart and an angry heart can burst.
It has been noted that viewing a stressful football match doubles the risk of a heart attack. Spikes in heart attacks are seen after World Cup events; an experience that can cause such a strong emotional reaction leading to a potential serious health event.
We often mention the heart in conversation. These expressions pertain to feelings. We feel from the heart; I didn’t have the heart, a heart of gold, heart goes out to, heart is in the right place, heavy heart, take heart.
What is clear is the heart is precious and needs to be treated with tender loving care.
