Because
the subconscious reacts to all thought, imaginary or real,
it also reacts to our memories. Memories are records of our
experiences in the world, they are flavored by our personal
views and attitudes of the world. When any two people recall
an event that they have both experienced, they can recall
wildly different recollections of the same event. This is
because everyone uses their own inbuilt mental recording equipment.
We all see reality through different
colored glasses. Our view of reality is colored by which sense
we weight the most important. Some people pay more attention
to what they see, others to what they feel, and others to
what they hear. We all use our favored sensory colored glasses
to record events as memory. Thus memories become mental video
recordings of events. You being the director and editor of
the recording, place more emphasis on what you have as a sensory
bias, editing and leaving out what you think is unimportant.
So memories are very personally
biased records of events and the memories we recall the easiest
are the most emotional and sensory charged. Because a memory
is a mental recording you have the power to constantly replay
it, reliving it over and over. The subconscious reaction to
you pressing the replay button is to reproduce the event with
all the sensory and emotional intensity of the original event,
biased by your personal editing.
