  • For memories to form,

  • three functions have to take place.

  • Acquiring - learning or experiencing something new.

  • Consolidating - this is where the memories become stable.

  • And finally, recall -

  • the ability to recall that information in the future.

  • Can juggling really increase brain activity?

  • German researchers divided 24 non-jugglers into two groups

  • and asked one group to practise juggling for three months.

  • They found that those who didn't juggle showed no difference

  • in brain activity over the test period.

  • But those who juggled, had an increase in grey matter in two areas

  • of the hippocampus and neocortex,

  • parts of the brain involved in memory, visual and motor activity.

  • Let's say you have a simple list of things you want to buy.

  • Step one:

  • Start at your door and go anticlockwise around your room,

  • labelling each item

  • one to seven in order.

  • Step two:

  • In my room, my bed is the first object.

  • So I would place the first item I want to remember -

  • buying an apple, for example -

  • on my bed.

  • Step three:

  • Create a visual image and exaggerate it in some way

  • to make it more memorable. If the first item is an apple,

  • picture a big purple apple crushing your bed.

  • Repeat the process until every piece of information

  • is associated to an item in your memory palace.

  • During sleep, your body rests, although your brain is busily

  • processing information from the day to form memories.

  • People who recall their dreams improve their memory

  • and are more creative.

  • Try keeping a dream diary of some sort.

  • Just a notebook and pen, so you can write down or sketch

  • as much as you can remember as soon as you wake up.

  • So there you have it. Acquiring, consolidating, and finally recall.

  • Simple tips to improve your memory.
