What are your earliest childhood memories? Were you afraid of the dark? Can you remember a particularly embarrassing moment? Those memories - along with the words and emotions you use to describe them - hold the key to understanding the person you are today! Drawing on examples from his own life, the lives of celebrities, as well as case studies from his private practice, renowned psychologist Dr. Kevin Leman helps you apply these same techniques to uncover why you are the way you are.

Eventi che con Memories cercheremo insieme di raccontarveli per capire come sono nati, come sono passati alla storia e come mai ancora oggi siamo qui ricordarli.
