Procedural memory refers to memories of motor skills or actions (also known as ‘muscle memory’). These are usually unconscious and difficult to explain. For example, most people will have procedural memory for being able to walk, but how easy is it to describe the process involved in walking in more detail than putting one foot in front of the other? These are referred to as non-declarative memories because they are difficult to put into words.
Episodic memory refers to memories of life events. These are much more readily accessible (more conscious) and more easily described verbally (declarative memory). An example of an episodic memories would be a memorable holiday you went on.
