More and more complaints of memory impairment. Alzheimer's disease (memory disorder) progressing every year, and begins to appear at an earlier age.
This is not surprising, because today there are so many services that remember for us. But the brain is like muscles – no load only gets weaker. Fortunately, brain training is much easier than muscle training.. Here 5 simple exercises.
1. Attention training.
When watching a movie, try to pay attention not only to the essence, but also to the smallest details, for example on clothes, small interior details. Try to remember as many small details as possible when going to work or school.. And you don't need to try to remember everything at once.. Pay attention to the left side one day, to another on the second floors of houses, on the third day on the lawn, etc.. I think you will be surprised, how much you didn't notice.
2. Memorization training.
A logical continuation of the attention exercise, will – remembering the information received. The simplest exercise – remember in as much detail what happened yesterday. What kind of clothes did you wear, what were wearing your friends / colleagues. How many times a day did you talk on the phone and what… I do this exercise after the alarm goes off., very cool helps to wake up, when you first remember yesterday, and then the to-do list for today =).
3. Learn by heart.
Most of all in school I hated learning poems by heart, but it develops your memory perfectly. If your love of literature was discouraged at school, remember phone numbers of your friends, birthdays, car numbers, иностранные слова. No need to try to remember everything at once in one day., start with one phone number a day.
Here is one trick worth mentioning.. Мне очень жаль, that no one taught me to memorize at school… ведь уже сотни лет существует мнемотехника, this is amazing thing, which allows you to learn a lot of information in a short period of time… For instance 2 months ago I remembered 200 digits of the number Pi… I still remember them. Friends' phones have already ended and I switched to English =)
4. Fantasize.
Just make up stories or fairy tales. But try to make them as meaningful as possible.. For example, you can come up with a story about a gnome during the day., who needs to redo your to-do list. Or if you have a creative stupor, come up with a story about, how you overcame it and the matter will get off the ground.
5.Remember the arrangement of things.
It is very helpful to remember the arrangement of things on your desk., ключей, кошелька, passports, route to an unfamiliar place… after memorizing, be sure to play all the information in your head a couple more times, for a more secure fit.
It is important.
When memorizing, try to comprehend the information and connect it logically. Simple cramming does not improve memory very much., besides, it is quickly erased from the head. When memorizing, try to make the most of your 5 sense organs (как в примере по запоминанию планет) и мнемотехнику.
