Simplified Meaning:

Our unconscious mind holds memories and experiences from the very beginning of human history, even before we were born. It’s like a hidden library filled with stories and knowledge from our ancestors. For example, think about how some people might have a fear of snakes even if they've never seen one. This fear might come from ancient times when our ancestors had to be wary of snakes for survival. Our minds keep those old memories and lessons tucked away, influencing our behaviors and reactions today. By understanding this, we can learn more about why we act in certain ways and maybe even overcome irrational fears or habits. This hidden part of our mind can help us make better decisions by tapping into this deep, ancient wisdom.
