	Emotional memory study reveals evidence for a self-reinforcing loop
		This recall was associated with a correlated higher activity in both the amygdala -- the region of the brain responsible for processing emotional memories -- as well as the hippocampus, the main memory-processing center.
		While in such labile state, either the memory itself or the person's perspective of it may be altered." According to Cabeza, therapists working with people suffering from PTSD as a result of the 9/11 terrorist attack have used this technique to alleviate its symptoms.
		In further studies, the researchers plan to manipulate the degree of emotion experienced by the subjects, as well as how much detail is remembered, to explore the specific interactions among brain structures in processing emotional memories.

	Emotional memory in acting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Emotional memory in acting is an element of the Stanislavski System and of Method Acting, two related approaches to acting.
		Emotional memory requires the actor to call on the memories he or she felt when they were in a situation similar (or more recently a situation with similar emotional import) to that of their character.
		Emotional memory is also known as "sense memory", "affective memory" and "emotional recall", and is a the basis for Lee Strasberg's Method Acting.

		Memory for faces is located in the right side of the brain while the name of the individual is located in the left side of the brain.
		Other emotional memories are a record of the physiological/emotional response we have experienced during an event.
		The entire memory of an emotional event (an assault, an automobile accident, a wedding, death of a loved one, a combat experience, etc.) is actually remembered by two systems in the brain and stored in two separate areas of the brain.

	BBC - Radio 4 Memory Experience - Understanding emotional memory
		On one level, emotional memory simply refers to the notion that very emotional events are often memorable.
		Emotional memory can also refer to how an object, event or even a person can make us feel by triggering an existing memory that has emotional significance.
		Thanks to its emotional underpinning, the event is now bound up in your memory with what you were doing at the time you heard it.

		Emotional arousal is a form of stress, and it engages the same systems in the body as stumbling across a large-toothed predator in the forest.
		The people who viewed the emotionally arousing story had significantly stronger memories for the emotional parts of the story and were therefore able to recall more specific details from the story.
		Each time, the brain’s emotional memory system kicks in and strengthens the memory until it is virtually branded on the person’s consciousness.

	role of emotion in memory
		It does seem that memories are treated differently depending on whether they are associated with pleasant emotions or unpleasant ones, and that this general rule appears to be affected by age and other individual factors.
		Specifically, pleasant emotions appear to fade more slowly from our memory than unpleasant emotions, but among those with mild depression, unpleasant and pleasant emotions tend to fade evenly, while older adults seem to regulate their emotions better than younger people, and may encode less information that is negative.
		People shown a video of an emotional event and instructed not to let their emotions show were found to have a poorer memory for what was said and done than did those who were given no such instructions.

	Emotional Memory Management (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		A psychologist does not need to inform individuals about memory, we all know what memory is. Memory allows us to recognize faces of old classmates, remember old songs, remember good times and bad times, and remember important information about events/experiences in our life.
		Memory files thus contain two parts, the information about the event and the feeling we had at the time of the event.
		Memories that are not important are usually "dumped" or erased after the five day waiting period.

		In the study, Canli and his colleagues individually tested the emotional memory of 12 women and 12 men using a set of pictures.
		In a memory test tailored for each person, they were asked to pick out pictures that they earlier rated as "extremely emotionally intense." The pictures were mixed among 48 new pictures.

		Emotional Memory files contain instructions for the brain to use these neurotransmitter ingredients to produce the mood in the file.
		Rule: The emotional part of a memory begins 90 to 120 seconds after a file is pulled.
		Once the memory relives the catch, the person's eyes will widen, their energy level will increase, they may begin arching their back as though illustrating a tough fight, and their entire mood and posture will move as though simulating the reeling-in of a fish.

	How brain gives special resonance to emotional memories
		Their new study provides clear evidence from humans that the brain's emotional center, called the amygdala, interacts with memory-related brain regions during the formation of emotional memories, perhaps to give such memories their indelible emotional resonance.
		According to Dolcos, in their experiments the researchers were seeking evidence for the "modulation hypothesis," which holds that the brain's emotional and memory centers interact during the formation of emotional memories.
		In their study, the researchers sought to establish that the memory-enhancing effect of emotion is due to interaction between emotion- and memory-related brain regions.

	The Neurobiology of Fear: Emotional Memory and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		As an anxiety disorder, PTSD has its foundations in fear and "emotional memory." Like factual memory, emotional memory also involves the storage and recall of events and details; this has been termed the explicit or conscious memory (2).
		This facet, the implicit or unconscious memory, is the memory of the physiological response, such as increased blood pressure, a higher respiratory rate, and muscle tensing, and is responsible for the emotional impairment that PTSD causes.
		While conscious memory is mediated by the hippocampus, the amygdala is implicated in emotional memory (1).

	Emotion and memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		One prominent hypothesis is that emotional arousal leads to a narrowing of attention, in which information in the periphery is less likely to be attended to and therefore less likely to be later remembered (Reisberg and Heuer, 2004).
		Memory recall tends to be congruent with one's current mood, with depressed people more likely to recall negative events from the past (Hertel, 2004).
		The enhancing effects of emotional arousal on later memory recall tend to be maintained among older adults and the amygdala shows relatively less decline than many other brain regions (Mather, 2004).

		What intrigued me was what he called "Emotional Memory" which seems to be different to what is understood as (declarative) memory.
		This is interesting because, well, it seems that a memory and the feeling attached come from different sources although it also seems plausible that feelings are managed as if they were declarative memory as well….
		Although we don’t really know what was going on in her brain, it seems likely that the implicit memory that the handshake was dangerous was burned into her amygdala, and that allowed her to protect herself from getting stuck again.

		There would be a direct corollary between the memory being suppressed, and the field's moisture content decreasing and thus it's oxygen level (and/or its "normal" use of oxygen) decreasing.
		Another way of saying this is that fascial bio-electro/magnetic resonance reflects memory (experience) with the manner in which solution is distributed on its surface; coherent wave patterns reflect symmetricity and alignment of atomic relationships.
		I believe there may be other ways that the brain-mind stores and accesses memory, but that this one works for the "emotionally charged" and/or suppressed experiences for which the person consciously and/or unconsciously feels there needs to be further processing.
