I believe in the ability to recall memories from the womb and have witnessed it with clients. In time the psychological theories will catch up with this ability. I think it is more something connected to the nervous system and is a body memory thing rather than a brain/language development thing. Chiropractors work with the nervous system when correcting spinal misalignment and have developed a lot of techniques that assist in releasing past issues. I just thought I would put in my opinion.

To have come so far and to have healed yourself and helped all of us others... You are already missed, and never forgotten. Shine on, Karen. I will love you and forever be grateful.

Until we can talk, we don't have a way of getting that memory into our long term memory banks.

But, I do believe in the possibility. Being in the womb is part of the human experience, so why wouldn't we have memories of it? Maybe most of use are so disconnected from those memories that we don't recall them. Maybe there are some who do enough work to rediscover those memories and learn from them.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Also, I want to say how much I appreciate this story. It is so gratifying to see someone who really wanted to put in the hard work it took to bring Karen to where she is today. And, that she is using this knowledge to help others makes the story even sweeter. I have always been intrigued by those who say they have memories from the womb.
