How to Strengthen Memory

You know you have seen her before. You know you have been introduced, but you just can't remember her name. Janice? Jody? Oh, just dodge behind the buffet and avoid her all together. Of all the things you lose, your memory is the one you miss the most. Take heart, you can strengthen your memory.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Reduce your stress. High levels of stress make it difficult for your brain to keep track of all the little things.
2. Mix it up. Try new things--food, games, routes, stores, books, positions--anything to break up the daily monotony. However, put your keys and cell phone in the same place.
3. Get physical. Regular exercise promotes healthy brain growth. Start by walking more, it may be difficult to make time, but it is important.
4. Take care of yourself. Eat your vegetables and get enough sleep. Take a daily multivitamin. Your brain loves spinach. It is loaded with iron which carries oxygen to the blood.
5. Repeat after me: Crossword puzzles and Sudoku are not wastes of time. Games, riddles and puzzles that are challenging will actually help you remember information, details and your mother's birthday.
6. Positive thinking about self and your life will automatically help strengthen your memory.
7. Keep a sense of humor about yourself and your memory. Keep things light and don't worry that you are a little forgetful, even if just had your sixth set of car keys made.
