Abstract Organisms act on the world through bodily actions to seek a meaningful environment conducive to survival. Therefore, cognition is a kind of sense-making. Sense-making is not only cognitive, but also emotional and affective, which are unified in the physical activity of organism’ sense-making. The body creates the emotional experience. Emotion and affection are a kind of physical understanding of situational stimulation, as well as a tendency for action. Emotions and affections are not “pure mental events” that take place only in the brain, but extend beyond the head and skin to environmental resources and establish a coupled whole with the external world. The enactivist theory of emotion provides a new perspective for us to reconsider the the essence of emotion.
