Memory Improvement
Summary
If you want to remember all the faces that you met, then keep reading.... Does it take you longer these days to hit on the word you’re searching for? Are you suffering more of those "tips of the tongue" moments, or embarrassing exchanges with people whose names you've forgotten? Our speed of thought naturally declines with age, says Dr. Michael Wassman, a leading researcher in aging and contributor to a new book, Staying Sharp for Dummies. "It’s common to experience age-associated memory impairment - where you walk into the kitchen and can’t remember what you came in for. As we get older, that does happen more frequently, but it’s not an indication that there’s something wrong with your brain." A strong memory depends on the health and vitality of your brain. Whether you’re a student studying for final exams, a working professional interested in doing all you can to stay mentally sharp, or a senior looking to preserve and enhance your grey matter as you age, there are lots you can do to improve your memory and mental performance. They say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but when it comes to the brain, scientists have discovered that this adage simply isn’t true. The human brain has an astonishing ability to adapt and change - even into old age. This ability is known as neuroplasticity. With the right stimulation, your brain can form new neural pathways, alter existing connections, and adapt and react in ever-changing ways. The brain’s incredible ability to reshape itself holds when it comes to learning and memory. You can harness the natural power of neuroplasticity to increase your cognitive abilities, enhance your ability to learn new information, and improve your memory at any age. In Memory Improvement, you will discover: • How to improve your concentration • How to sleep better • The three levels of the mind • What do we remember? • The differences between the brain and mind • Extra tips to train your memory to remember names and faces • Mind, brain, and memorization facts • Understanding how and why we remember things • How to create mind maps According to memory expert Jim Kwik, having a great memory boils down to MOM - no, not the precious woman who birthed you - motivation, observation, and mechanics. Having a great memory isn’t about genetics or repetition, it’s simply learning the mechanics of how to improve memory, and having the motivation to apply those mechanics. Our brains are like a muscle - the more you train them, the stronger they will be. Our memories are an integral part of who we are, but as we age, our memory declines. For many older adults, the decline becomes so serious that they’re no longer able to live independently, which is one of the biggest fears adults have as they age. Our memory is a skill, and just like other skills, it can be improved with practice and healthy overall habits. To improve memory not so hard as you can imagine.
