Five Tips for Improving Your Memory
1 Sleep well: If you don't sleep properly, you “lose” many of your memories.
2 Do physical exercise: When you exercise, more oxygen goes to your brain and makes your memory work better.
3 Do mental exercise: It is important to exercise your brain just like your body. New activities are more challenging than familiar ones.
4 Be interested: Ask yourself questions about what you are learning. We learn better if we are interested.
5 Form a mental picture: For example, if you want to remember the name “John Keys”, imagine his face with a big key on it. The stranger the picture, the better!
