Memory is the capacity of the nervous system to hold and recover knowledge and skills. Memory is shared across the brain areas including the cortical sensory areas, medial temporal lobes, and the hippocampus. The brain regions are not equally involved in the storage of memory. Different brain regions are involved in the storage of different information, which includes the cerebral cortex, frontal lobes, hippocampus, amygdala, cerebellum, and basal ganglia.

Bailey and Burch 25 Essential Skills and Strategies for Behavior Analysts. Chapter 12   Self-management is a two component process.  One component is the behavior you exhibit that needs to be managed.  The other component is the behavior you exhibit that manages that behavior.  When we do this well, the situation that would evoke the “needs to be managed behavior” (and the feelings that accompany it – like being upset, feeling attacked, etc.) instead evoke the self-managing behavior. Each of us has a lot to learn, and we need to keep learning. Which self management behaviors would help you to avoid the things you nominated above that are not helpful, and which would help you to do the things that are more helpful? How can you acquire those self-management behaviors?
