A member asked:
Why in our bodies do we feel a heart beat or it shakes like there's a heart there?

Please clarify: There is a "heart in there" but normally we don't hear/ think about our heart beating. Do you mean you feel your heart "pounding" or you're having some kind of out of body experience? Please clarify and resubmit so we can better respond. Take care.

Pulse: If you are feeling at areas of the blood vessels you might feel the heart beats as it is conducted through the arteries as pulses.
