In this episode, we tackle a common and heart-wrenching question from trauma survivors: &#34;How can I erase painful memories?&#34; We dive into the science and philosophy behind memory alteration, exploring the natural instinct to avoid distressing memories and the consequences of such avoidance. We discuss therapeutic approaches like memory reconsolidation, which aims to change the emotional impact of traumatic memories, and the limitations of methods like extinction. With references to experts like Joseph LeDoux and Steve Hayes, we offer insights into the complexities of healing from trauma. <h3>Upcoming events:</h3> <a href="https://www.davidkesslertraining.com/father-s-day-2024" rel="nofollow">Join David Kessler for his free online series on Father&#39;s Day Grief</a><a href="https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZEtce-gqDIvG9eG5CWGx90ksgMqYb5N0lsh#/registration" rel="nofollow">Join the Polyvagal Institue for their free webinar, Rising in Resilience with Jessica Conway</a><a href="https://www.linda-thai.com/" rel="nofollow">Learn more about Linda Thai </a><a href="https://therapist.com/" rel="nofollow">Learn more about Therapist.com</a> <h3>Join the Institute:</h3> Trauma Institute: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/traumainstitute/" rel="nofollow">@traumainstitute</a> | <a href="http://traumainstitute.com/" rel="nofollow">traumainstitute.com</a>Frank Anderson: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/frank_andersonmd/" rel="nofollow">@frank_andersonmd</a> | <a href="http://frankandersonmd.com/" rel="nofollow">frankandersonmd.com</a>Matthias Barker: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/matthiasjbarker/" rel="nofollow">@matthiasjbarker</a> | <a href="http://matthiasjbarker.com/" rel="nofollow">matthiasjbarker.com</a>
