Memory is comprised of the encoding, storage, and retrieval of information gathered via the nervous system. Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) appears to be a disorder of memory gone awry, traumatic events continuing to intrude on the present rather than resting in the past with the balance of life's events. theory and exercises inform participants on how the brain and body communicate to form normal and traumatic memories.
