Is it fair to say that the brain can build on traumatic memories, preventing a person from taking actions that could allow them to heal themselves, based on the examples from the episodes #453 My MDMA and Psilocybin Journey Unpacked - With Mike Zeller and Emotional Healing Journey, as well as the episode 172: Spotting a narcissist, healing from trauma, anxiety, and the gut-brain connection with psychotherapist Megan Bruneau, M.A. and the Healing Through Relationships segment? For instance, I produced a huge activation that was the largest success of my career, which opened on my mother's birthday. Two weeks later, she died in her sleep. Now, when I attempt to work on large, challenging projects like this one, I can start the process creatively but have great trouble following through on distributing it to people who could help me execute it. Is that a fair analysis of how my mind is perceiving my actions as leading to a similar tragic outcome?
In the episode #430: The Narcissism Epidemic: Reclaiming Connection in a Disconnected World with Teal Swan and the clip Embracing Triggers from the episode Is It Possible to Truly Heal From Trauma? and the clip Trauma and the Brain, Dr. David Anderson discusses a process to erase fear and traumas, stating that first you need to extinguish the fear or trauma by retelling the narrative. The whole point of that is to diminish the physiological response, right? If the goal is to diminish the physiological response, then if a person works to change their physiological response immediately after being triggered, would that over time also diminish the physiological response and therefore break the conditioning?

For example, if a person had a traumatic experience with a spider, but every time the person sees the spider or gets activated through some trigger and immediately after uses breathwork to calm the body, would that work like retelling a narrative to extinguish the fear? Did I miss something?
