a: Amygdala ~
b: a stone tablet

What: "You're never going to forget the trauma of course. I often say that the amygdala is like a stone tablet. Once you get it traumatized in a particular area, it's extraordinarily difficult to forget that trauma but what we can do is eventually help ourselves become more comfortable in that anxiety provoking situation and that entails taming the amygdala."
