“This suggests that our brains have recorded everything we have ever experienced, but we have no means of replaying those recordings.”

Thank God.......................

The researchers do not understand what they are talking about.

Memories are stored in the soul field, external to the physical body in a very specific pattern.

Consciousness in the soul flows in two counter-rotating fields, masculine to the left and feminine to the right.

The masculine aspect is connected to the hippocampus in the brain, while the feminine aspect is connected to the amygdala.

Memories are stored as holograms at the intersection of the two aspects of consciousness.

The dominant aspect of consciousness in this field determines gender identity, regardless of actual birth gender.

Attraction in relationships is toward our compliment to balance our consciousness. This creates the feeling of Love between two souls.

All of this is physical to my perception ever since I had a near death experience, crossed over to Heaven, and the profound Love there changed my soul when I returned. It raised the frequency of my consciousness to a level where consciousness itself became physical to my perception.

I am able to read people’s stored memories of their life experiences since conception without them saying anything. This ability is because our perception of reality is a function of the frequency of consciousness from which we view it. Being in Heaven raised my consciousness frequency.

Many years ago I worked with a 4 year old boy who was very emotional, and when frustrated would say “I’m going to kill myself.”

I did one session with him that lasted about 2 hours and it totally shifted his personality from the emotional child to a logical identity with a 100% photographic memory. We did not talk about his suicidal statements nor did he ever mention them again, per his mother.

Needless to say, this child with a photographic memory became an academic superstar, continued his education through PhD. and has been a university professor for many years.

The problem is, his shift in consciousness abandoned and ignored his early childhood trauma that triggered his emotional outbursts and did not resolve it. He compartmentalized the trauma and carries it like a ticking bomb within him.

Until scientists understand consciousness and the soul field around the physical body, they will not understand this subject.

I discovered that memories are stored in the soul as a ghost that attached to a woman and caused medical problems, had total recall of all the events from when he was in a physical body, even though his physical body was cremated after the accident that caused his physical death.

After I removed him from the woman he had attached , all her medical symptoms relating to his memories of the trauma during the accident, disappeared from her body.

This is a very complex topic.

Why do we remember traumatic events so vividly?

AI Overview
We remember traumatic events vividly because the amygdala activates the stress response, releasing hormones that “burn” essential details into memory. This high-arousal state enhances the storage of frightening and emotionally charged fragments—like sensory images, sounds, and smells—while hindering the hippocampus’s ability to create a cohesive, narrative account. The memory is not fully processed into a historical record but remains an intense, often non-verbal, emotional experience that can feel like it’s happening in the present.
How Traumatic Memory Works
The Brain’s Alarm System:
During a traumatic event, the amygdala acts as an alarm system, sending signals for the body to enter a “fight or flight” state.
Hormonal Boost:
Stress hormones like cortisol and norepinephrine are released, which directly impact the hippocampus and “prefrontal cortex”.
Hyper-Encoding:
The hippocampus goes into “super-encoding” mode, prioritizing the encoding of the most frightening and meaningful aspects of the event.

Actress Marilu Henner of “Taxi’ fame has a highly superior autobiographical memory. 60 Minutes did a feature on this condition being studied at University of California-Irvine and Henner was included in the study.

She likened recovering the memories to going into a portion of her brain that had CDs and she’d pull out the one that stored that particular memory.

I’ve used this ability to remove traumatic memories that caused PTSD, in a few minutes. The memory itself is not blocked. The negative emotion attached to the stored memory is eliminated.

My wife can tend to long winded answers—but I figured out how to get her to slow down and organize her thoughts.

My rule—no pronouns. She must give the first and last name of any person she is discussing—every time she mentions their name.

It works.

There is much truth in that AI summary, but it is way over simplified.

Everything is recorded in the soul, not the brain. The soul is a field of consciousness that goes out about 15 ft in all directions around the physical body.

The brain is much more a transmitter and receiver than a storage device.

I think for dealing with someone you’re close to, that’s a great option.

I don’t see this nephew very often, and when I do, I tend to avoid him.

I will pass on your suggestion to my sister and BIL who do have to interact with him on a nearly daily basis.

I should try that with my wife. She can tell a story involving 5 women and the whole thing is one long, “She told her that she didn’t like it when she did that, but she was standing there and she made a face and did that thing that annoys her, so she jumped and let her have it.”

As it relates to time distortion or time travel, perception of time is a function of the frequency of consciousness from which you view it.

As you raise to higher consciousness frequencies, time collapses.

Early this morning I picked up my wife at the airport. I immediately commented how crazy people were driving.

When she started the 1,000 questions routine, for the first time ever I stopped her, saying I needed to focus on traffic.

Not 5 minutes later, about a half mile down I-40, two cars collided right in front of me and I managed to stop without hitting them. It’s as though I had a premonition that this was going to happen.

PS. Don’t all wives have a photographic memory of all the things we husbands did wrong? 😁

...suggests that our brains have recorded everything we have ever experienced, but we have no means of replaying those recordings.

With the exception of brain damage or illness, they're all retrievable. It just depends on the stimulus to bring them out.

I listened to a Sirius XM show with Henner and it was interesting to hear her describe different songs from the 70’s. Each song brought about details that no one else could possibly remember. I wonder if it is as much a curse sometimes as a blessing.

It's that women's "manifesting" thing or whatever.
