Why You Believe Your Own Lies
from That Brain of Yours: The Glitch and the Function · host LightStar
Why are you so sure about memories that might not be true?Because your brain edits them—and never tells you.In this episode, we uncover why memory isn’t a recording but a reconstruction. You’ll learn how recalling an event can quietly change it, why altered memories get saved as truth, and how confidence has nothing to do with accuracy.This is how false memories form—without intention, without awareness, and without warning.Your brain isn’t trying to deceive you.It’s trying to create a story that makes sense.🧠 Memory favors coherence over truth.
