In this episode we talk about what a traumatic memory is, how it’s stored in the brain, and how it may be remembered differently in comparison to other memories in our life. We cover how memories are consolidated and reconsolidated, what implicit and explict memories are, how pre and post cognitives circuits work, and how it's possible to "forget" what happened.

For most people it's incredibly stressful and brings up all sorts of new, difficult emotions and situations. However, for those of us who already struggle with past and recent trauma, it can prompt that old trauma back to the forefront, making us miss out on plans we made to improve ourselves this year and move forward. We may even feel like we're sliding backwards in recovery. I asked my extraordinarily resilient and wise friend Alex Morales to have a conversation with me about what it’s like to navigate this pandemic while coping with other complex trauma.
