Isn't that what a dead body is?
Some time ago, I realized that there are clear edges to the elements to a human being. The body without the soul is a shell. But how do we define "consciousness"? Is it spirit, the part of you connected to your creator? Or is it your soul, your emotions your memories you identity? One is specific one is general. We could discuss what worlds each of these elements live in, but I feel that would be getting off topic.
Where does consciousness reside? I'm not sure there are hard and fast boundaries within the body. Perhaps what we feel in the chest or the head is a concentration of that energy.
On the other hand, I like what Scott said:

The difficulty in answering that question presents itself because I'm not sure how things are placed within the realm of consciousness. We're all familiar with 3D, but what about 5D?
