Introduction

Memory is the scribe of the soul. – Aristotle

Experiencing a little fuzzy thinking and memory loss is a normal part of the human lifestyle. At some point, we all forget someone's name or struggle to find just the right word. But memory can always be sharpened and improved to avoid such situations where you fail to recall important things.

Memory strength is just like muscular strength. The more you use it, the stronger it gets. But you can’t lift the same size weight every day and expect to get stronger. You’ll need to keep your brain constantly challenged. Learning a new skill is an excellent way to strengthen your brain’s memory capacity. In this course, we have covered different and unique ways to improve your memory by learning something new, doing different activities that keep your brain challenged and active.

This training also deals with extraordinary and effective ways to sharpen your memory and have better learning experiences like creating a memory palace, using mnemonics for remembering long lists of information, etc. It covers other important aspects for building a healthy memory and fighting off memory loss. Through this course, we have tried to cover everything that you need to know about mastering your memory and brain training exercises to boost and sharpen your brain.

Keep in mind that forgetting the name of a former acquaintance or making a mistake on your monthly bills is likely normal. What's not typically normal is forgetting the name of a grandchild and forgetting to pay your bills. So do not take your memory loss lightly and get started before the symptoms worsen and lead to a slip.

Let’s get started...

Consider your morning routine. You probably got up, got dressed, drank a cup of coffee and drove to work (or university) while listening to a radio station. You paid no special attention to your route, sang along with a tune you learned maybe years ago, and mentally tuned out an ad you have heard too many times. The day is still young, yet you have already performed thousands of actions without thinking about them.  

Have you ever wondered how you manage to remember information for a test, a meeting or a presentation? The ability to create new memories, store them for periods of time, and recall them when they are needed allows us to learn and interact with the world around us. Consider for a moment how many times a day you rely on your memory to help you function, from remembering how to use your computer to recollecting your password to log-in to your online bank account. 

The ability to remember major facts and small details is essential for daily life. The processes of the supercomputer - the human brain - which facilitates memory, has intrigued the cognitive realm of psychology and has prompted research particularly in the last three decades. Human memory has a remarkable ability so familiar to us that we usually take it for granted. That ability is simply that one thing reminds us of another.

This brings us to an important question – how do you define memory and what is it?
