Improve Your Memory: Simple Steps To Better Thinking

Sodoku symbol

Sodoku is great for improving mental processes.

If you’re like me, you have to work harder to remember names and other small pieces of information. But the time and effort you put into remembering certain bits of information is beneficial for your brain. Any stimulus that requires usage of your brain strengthens the memory and how you store new information thereby improving memory.

  1. Acronyms - Remember “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally” from your algebra days? It hasn’t gone away has it? Using simple acronyms helps you to remember information more accurately, or in that case, the process to figure out an algebra problem, will be forever etched in your mind.
  2. Rhymes – Rhymes can be vital to remembering names or any other bit of information that may be worth remembering.
  3. Chunking - Putting a long list of information into categories of information may help you better remember.

Regular exercise and eating a proper diet is vital to your brain, and there are plenty of vitamins that can help aid you in memorizing as well. Daily brain exercises and activities keep your brain functioning properly by reading, crossword puzzles, or Sodoku (highly addicting). Lumosity has really cool brain games that focus on memory, speed, and problem solving. You can also track your progress!
