Memory, Spring retreats in Wisconsin, Mind Training to Overcome Fear

From these signposts it is possible to delve and expand into our memory for details surrounding that experience, such as date, others present and how we felt. The feelings are then re-aroused (how emotions are remembered ) and brought into conscious awareness. This is how the human mind innocently works.
