The Power of Implicit Memory

"I don't remember Charles. First of all, I don't think that was even him," he says. "Because it's so painful, I choose not to pay attention to the memory itself explicitly because it brings up the implicit nature of it." He adds: "When I experience your empathy about a story of trauma that I've had, I'm actually able to exhale a little bit more and can then imagine the perpetrator in this case,. I can imagine them differently".
