Memory is a process by which acquired information can be recorded, encoded, stored, accessed and retrieved. Through sensory memory we capture information and pass it to short-term memory.

Once the information is decoded, it stays set in our long-term memory. It is important to identify two types of memory: Implicit or procedural and explicit or declarative. In particular, autobiographical memory is a type of declarative memory that alluds our personal past, which means bringing to the present stituations of the past that have been experienced in first person; situations that have been stories in our lives.
