The primary somatosensory cortex receives information from receptors, while the secondary somatosensory cortex processes and stores it. Injury or disease can affect either of these areas.

Upbringing vs neural development

There is evidence that links movement to memory and if the individual expresses joy when in movement, the memory will be retained. That being said, we use our memory of the past to guide our future decisions, but how can we go back and change our memory to a more positive one to encourage movement for the future?

Movement and Memory

Memory is a theoretical construct that explains current behaviours by referencing them to events that happened in the past. Memory is basically how we function everyday. We don’t wake up every day and have to re-learn how to walk, how to dress ourselves, how to brush our teeth. This is cemented, it is learned.
