Sample Book Insights: #1 Your brain can remember anything, and it does so by changing as a result of what you experience. Your brain perceives the sensory, emotional, and factual elements of what you experience through the portals of your senses. #2 The four steps of memory formation are encoding, consolidation, storage, and retrieval.
To create a memory, you must put the information into your brain, weave the information together, store it via stable changes in your brain, and then retrieve it when you want to use it. #3 The hippocampus is the brain region that stores memories for later recall. If something interferes with the processing of a nascent memory in the hippocampus, the memory can be degraded and possibly lost. #4 Memories are stored throughout your brain in the pattern of neural activity that was stimulated when the event or information was first experienced.
Your memory of last night's dinner requires the activation of the same constellation of disparate neurons that perceived, paid attention to, and processed your initial experience of that meal.
