How are you doing, Friend?

I hope you enjoy Christmas this year and God grants you new insight into who He is.

I am adding new content to one of my older posts about emotional healing. It's a 3-part story and the second part about healing memories is ready:

Wouldn't it be nice to heal without having to relive painful memories? Unfortunately, to heal a memory, it's necessary to face it directly. You can't change a memory, but you can change how you see it. How you interpret life events that can create serious emotional problems. Healing a memory involves changing its meaning from negative to positive.

Your brain stores your significant memories along with how positively or negatively you interpret those personal events. That sounds great for positive memories but why would you want to store negative memories? You need to access negative memories if you want to heal.
