Early memories is also a technique used in psychodynamic therapy (very helpful for some and helpful for me too)!
Mine was around 3 years old of being extremely sick and waiting for my mother & father to come home from an evening engagement. I just remember being 'drowned' by a sea of red blankets. Everything in this memory had a red hue. I wanted my mother to come home because I was not feeling well.
It's probably not an accurate memory (bc memories are generally faulty) but generally, understanding early memory is like interpreting a dream - it's the imagery + symbolism + your emotions + your thoughts in the memory that matter.
