Remember when? Why sharing memories is soul food

    Research output: Contribution to Newspaper/Magazine/WebsiteArticle

    Abstract

    Families and friends share memories all the time; “You’ll never guess…”, “How was your day?”, and “Do you remember when…” are rich daily fodder.

    Sharing memories is not only a good way to debrief and reminisce, we’re beginning to realise the process plays an important role in children’s psychological development and protects our memories as we advance in age.
