A couple of weeks ago when I walking in the woods and shuffling through the leaves with our two dogs, Chloe and Lola, I had wonderful fall memories come to mind; when as a child my brother and I would make a huge pile of leaves at my Grandparents and dive in and also when we would just burn leaves and smell that incredible leaf incense. As these memories flashed in my mind, a sense of relaxation, warmth and calm emerged. My body took its cues from this memory. My state of mind and body changed based on a simple memory as I shuffled through the leaves. I was “in the body” of my 8 year old jumping in the leaves. In neuroscience writings, they call these “explicit memories” or episodic memorie
