The Body Doesn’t Keep the Score. Your Brain Keeps Predicting It.
How predictive neuroscience and behavioural biomarkers could help solve the billion-person mental health challenge. For more than a decade, one sentence has quietly shaped the way the world thinks about trauma. The body keeps the score. It has become more than the title of an influential book. It has become a cultural truth. Therapists repeat…

Beyond the Cell: Could Memory Exist in the Human Information Field?
What if Bruce Lipton is right that cells store information—but he’s only seeing part of the picture? For decades, neuroscience has searched for memory inside the brain. Bruce Lipton expanded the search to the cell membrane. Rupert Sheldrake proposed that memory may exist within morphic fields. Donald Forsdyke went further still, suggesting that memory may…

The Search for Memory: From Brain Tissue to Extracorporeal Fields and the Hive Mind
Introduction: The Great Memory Puzzle For more than a century, neuroscience has been chasing memory like a mirage. We can measure its traces, manipulate its correlates, even describe the molecular changes that accompany learning, but no one has ever pulled a memory out of a neuron and said, “Here it is.” This puzzle has haunted…

The Brain’s “Delete” Button: How Firing Out of Sync Enables Split-Second Unlearning, Offering New Hope for Mental and Physical Well-being
For decades, we’ve understood that the brain learns by strengthening connections between neurons that fire together – Hebb’s famous learning rule. This “cells that fire together, wire together” principle has been the bedrock of our understanding of learning and memory[i]. However, new research[ii] is revealing a complementary and equally crucial mechanism: a neural “delete” button…

Split-Second Unlearning Aligns with Pavlov’s Goal of Uniting Mind and Body
Key Points Introduction Ivan Pavlov, a renowned physiologist, emphasized the importance of uniting physiological and psychological aspects, famously stating in 1932 that this integration was a crucial scientific endeavor. Almost a century later, Matt Hudson stands at the forefront of this pursuit through his groundbreaking work on Split-Second Unlearning, exploring how emotional memories influence the…

The External Screen: How the Mind’s Eye Drives Fear, Anxiety and Chronic Disease
The External Screen Model – The site of the Emotional Memory Image Abstract This paper proposes that emotional memory images (EMIs) – mental visualisations of the objects of our phobias or traumatic memories – are unconscious pictures viewed on an external screen (ES). Ideomotor movements represent a sensory feedback that the body experiences in response…

Extracorporeal Storage of Emotional Memory Images: A Theoretical Synthesis
Recent developments in memory theory, notably Donald Forsdyke’s hypothesis of extracorporeal “cloud storage” offer a provocative lens to reconsider the storage and retrieval of Emotional Memory Images (EMIs). Forsdyke suggests that memory may extend beyond the brain’s physical architecture, potentially involving non-local repositories akin to cloud computing’s distributed data access. This challenges the conventional view…
