    EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk about memory, including how to improve memory. We actually aren’t supposed to remember everything. The brain is designed to forget things that are not useful to us. In fact, trying to remember everything can cause neurochemical chaos in our neural circuitry because we are designed to selectively remember what interests us and what we need for a particular task.

    Dr. Caroline I have a question about facts in a seminar you once said there are no facts? I'm having a hard time with this, how do I go about finding certainty and trust with all this information..
