E Felman Barrett's Theory of Constructed Emotion

Lisa felman barrett's theory is that emotion is a motivating force. Emotion actually, as it's constructed in our brain, is preparing our body systems to move. If we're constructing fear, our body gets ready to run or fight and so if we're constructing compassion, our body is getting ready to help the person that we feel pity or compassion for. So i think it makes sense from that.
