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 Huberman Lab Podcast episode 'If You're SICK & TIRED Of Being Pushed Around, WATCH THIS!' with Jenn Cassetta and the clip 'Empathy Through Loss'? For instance, I produced a significant activation, which was the largest success of my career, that 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?
Can you provide some insights on how to address the feelings stemming from my childhood experiences with my father, who tortured and abandoned my mother and me? I often feel that these experiences are the reason I overthink and have deep thoughts. This question relates to the episode Zen Master Henry Shukman — 20 Minutes of Calm and The Powerful World of Koans | The Tim Ferriss Show and the clip Embracing Grief's Gifts. Additionally, how does this relate to the episode How Pain Becomes Medicine with IN-Q #251 and the clip Letting Go, Self-Awareness?
