I think you can prove that consiousness stems from the brain. Example one: the physical brain is dead, a conscious response from the body isnt going to occur.
Loss of consciousness because of the cessation of brain activity does not mean that consciousness is tied to the brain. Death is not the same as the extinction of consciousness.
