Guest guest Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 Good Morning! Mind Games: ways to improve your memory Some of the best ways to engage your brain is by using your memory functions! 1. The number one rule is: Get off auto-pilot! Avod brain shrinkage by expanding your emotional and mental capacity. Break up your routine. Switch it up. Do something different each day. 2. Memorize favorite poems, speeches or famous passages. 3. Read challenging books or articles that encourage you to expand your interests. 4. Learn something new whether it is a new language, the words to a song or a new recipe, this helps stretch the brain. 5. Practice other-handedness If you're right-handed, try brushing your teeth or writing your grocery list with your left hand. 6. Play word games like crossword puzzles, sudoku and acrostics. 7. Test at your threshold. Testing yourself slightly beyond your capacity (80 percent right, 20 percent wrong) helps to increase brain neurons. 8. Get lost. Getting lost and then being able to find your way, by backtracking, reading a map or deducing, helps to increase memory. 9. Choose one new thing to learn everyday. You will greatly benefit your age/mind capacity, as you comprehend something new. 10. Stay optimistic, remaining so, enables higher cognitive function.
