Origin

The phrase “from the bottom of someone’s heart” is used to express sincere emotions. Whenever people are hurt or emotional, they feel pain and pressure in the lowest portion of the heart. The heart is considered by people as the container that fills up with emotions so whenever “from the bottom” is said; it means that the heart started to fill from the bottom, where it naturally remains fullest and reserved.

One another popular theory says that the ancient Greek philosopher, Archimedes, mistakenly believed that the brain pumps blood, while the heart works to think and feel. And that was the possible time when the expression originated.
