A body

I’d say it’s possible to experience mental anguish/worry without the body participating. Solely a cognitive pain from consternation.

  • You can’t cognate without a body - the brain and body is a material system tightly coupled

    • Ignoring that "cognate" isn't a verb, we have basis for making any claim about the necessity of that coupling.

How does a body know what's going on? Would you say it has any input devices?
