The Power of Memory and Its Role in Trauma
Memory plays a crucial role in our lives, allowing us to navigate the present and future by holding onto what is important and relevant. In cases of trauma, memories can become overgeneralized and triggered by specific contexts, leading to intrusive and vivid recollections. Repetition can solidify memories, but actively recalling and engaging with memories can refine and enhance them. Traumatic memories can impact how we perceive events and shape our narratives, with therapy often providing a space for reframing and altering memory perspectives.
