How to Imrpove Your Memory..!!

About Memory

We all want to keep our minds sharp and fresh, and a strong memory depends on the health and vitality of your brain. By having a sharp mind you can figure situations out more effectively and make wiser decisions. There are numerous ways to keep your mind sharp while keeping a good, well rounded attitude.  If you want to sharp your mind, and increase your memory then following tips should help you.

 Tip No. 1: EXERCISE 

Several studies have shown that aerobic exercise improves cognitive function and is particularly good at enhancing memory. Exercise is also thought to encourage the growth of new brain cells in the hippocampus, an area of the brain important in memory and learning.

Tip No.2: FOCUS 

So many people get caught up in multi tasking that we often fail to do the one thing that will almost always improve your memory paying attention to the task at hand. This is important, because your brain needs time to encode the information properly. If it never makes it into your memory, you would not be able to recall it later. If you need to memorize something, quit multitasking. 

Tip No.3: REPEATING

One reason people who want to memorize something repeat it over and over again is because repetition seems to work for most people. It helps not to cram, though. Instead, repeat the information spaced out over a longer period of time.

Tip No. 4: PLAY BRAIN GAMES

Some studies have found that, while doing crossword puzzles may make you better at remembering the capital of Burkina Faso, there's little evidence they'll boost your performance at more general tasks, like remembering where your car is parked. But a 2011 study showed that participants who played a computer game called Double Decision for six years improved their concentration so much that they had a 50 percent lower rate of car accidents.

Tip No. 5: SLEEPING

One of the many benefits of sleep is that it makes memory stronger. That’s because the brain is surprisingly busy during sleep and one of the things its doing is working on our memories.
Not only does sleep make our memories stronger, it also restructures and reorganizes them.

Tip No. 6: CHEWING GUM

If you need to remember a piece of information for around 30 minutes, trying chewing gum. Studies have found that people do better on both visual and audio memory tasks if they are chewing gum while they do them. Just the act of chewing seems to keep people more focused and improve concentration. People who didn't chew gum did better on very short memory tasks, while masticating helped people stay alert during longer ones
