Your body does remember things. See the book “The Body Keeps The Score”.

This is true, but only because the brain is a part of the body. The brain remembers things.
That neglects all the other ecosystems in your body that lead you to behave the way you do.

Have you ever been hangry? How about the experience of chronic intestinal irritation worsening your depression? How do you feel in your head when you can’t stop your heart from racing after a stressful day of work? Those are all examples of the inverse.

Those are all examples of the brains response.

The body is the trigger but the brain is the source of the symptoms.

Also, "The Body Remembers" volumes 1 and 2.
