      Hi @alexr

      This is such a great question, but it’s really hard to answer!
      Most people think consciousness IS in the brain, but no-one really knows where, or how that is. It certainly feels like ‘I’ am in my head – because I see out of my eyes, and I hear through my ears, but it feels like more than that.

      That’s not a very scientific answer though, sorry about that!

      Do you think consciousness is in the brain?
