I've always just considered "feelings" as a synonym for emotion, but I recently had the idea that feelings might be literal. So are feelings literally tangible sensations, or is the word just a synonym for emotion? i.e. does heartache refer to actual chest pain?

Our emotions are real, they provide our feelings. The emotions are the instigator of feelings.
When I found out my husband was cheating on me, I couldn't stand up straight because of the pain in my gut. After a while it became more of an ache in the heart area.
A long time ago people realized that the feelings of love and sadness made a physical feeling in the chest. They decided it came from the organ in the chest--the heart. It is a real chemical reaction--there have been studies about it. I have felt my heart ache. You always want to do something for relief. Sometimes the things you do to relieve the pain are destructive, especially if it is a fast fix.

feelings lead to physical symptoms. Yes, heartache gives some chest pain, headaches.

The heart can see what the mind cannot conceive, and yet the mind can read it all.
