EP109: Memory

This episode is all about memory! I’ll explore: 

  • How memory is different from other types of thought (or actually, how it isn’t) 
  • How it works in a reconstructive–created in real time–way, and what that means for us
  • How memory for traumatic episodes is sometimes created in a different way than memory for other things
  • How memory plays into habits and what we call chronic, or ongoing, issues like anxiety or depression (hint: without memory, there is no such thing as a habit or chronic issue!)

Seeing more about how memory is created and how it works shows us more about all human experience and opens us up the space beyond it. I hope you enjoy this episode!
