Notes From The Trauma-Sensitive Yoga 10 Week Course. Week Nine: Body Memories and Predictions

(Facilitator notes from the 10-week course)

The brain can do more than map present moment body states, it can also predict and create body states based on past experiences. In this way, it anticipates what is going to happen.

As a result, much or our experiences are a combination of what is actually happening and what we predict (consciously or unconsciously) will happen.
