Jung on the body
Whenever you have an argument with yourself, whenever you are making a decision, in order to be far-reaching enough you should consider the reaction of the serpent, of the lower brain centers, nothing can be decided definitely…if that answer is overlooked.
Our unconscious is surely located in the body…the sympathetic nervous system of the body is the organ by which you have the possibility of awareness; therefore you can say the collective unconscious is in the lower centers of the brain, and the spinal cord and the sympathetic system.
Jung’s Seminar on Nietzsche’s Zarathustra, pg. 174-5
