By using the loci method, you can improve your memory skill. The word “loci” means place, so the loci method is a memory skill that first remember its place. The procedures of the loci method are first, you visualize a place you are familiar with in your mind, then you organize the thing you want to remember in order, next you put the things you want to remember in your mind map which is the place that you are familiar with, and put a funny or special things beside it, because funny or special things are always easier to remember. At last, imagine you are going into this place that you are familiar with, and you can remember all the things you want to remember in the room’s location. Many people had used the loci method to remember certain things. For example, Gary Shang used the loci method to prove the digit 65,536(216). Peter of Ravenna used the loci method to remember 200 speeches and 1,000 poems. Using loci method is a very smart way to remember things.

  By sleeping more, you can improve your memory skill. Scientists proved that when you slept, your brain started creating long-term memory, and long-term memory is better than short-term memory which can improve your memory skill. They proved this by doing an experiment, first, they let to teams of rats remember the routes of a maze, then they let the rats slept, but they gave one group of rats a drug which stop the brain from creating long-term memory while sleeping. When the rats finished sleeping, only the rat who didn’t have the drug successfully passed the maze.

  By eating foods that have high antioxidant can improve your memory skill. For example, dark chocolates, strawberries and raspberries can all improve your memory skill. Chocolates has 15 millimole of antioxidants per 3.5 ounces, dark chocolate also have many health benefits such as less inflammation and reduced risk factors which caused heart disease. Strawberries has 5.4 millimole of antioxidants per 3.5 ounces, the anthocyanins in strawberry which made it red can also reduce risk factors which cause heart disease. Raspberries have 4 millimole antioxidants per 3.5 ounces, the antioxidants and other components in a raspberry killed 90% of the breast cancer cells. Eating food that have high antioxidants is very important for improving memory skill, and it is easier than the two techniques above.

  I think the using the loci method is the smartest way to improve memory, because it is a technique that did not cost you a lot of time; sleeping more is the most important way to improve memory skill, because sleeping is a rest for your entire body; eating food that have high antioxidant is the most enjoyable way to improve memory skill, because surprisingly, all the food that have high antioxidant is the food that I like to eat.

Research shows that stress is bad for the brain. By avoiding stress, you may improve your memory. Phisical exercise is one way to reduce stress. Or you can do something you like, something that can make you relax. For example for me, watching TV, eating, or playing games.

 

     First of all, tomatoes contain all the three high power-driven antioxidants: beta-carotene, vitamin E and vitamin C, and these vitamins really help improve your memory. In particular, tomatoes also contain remarkable amounts of lycopene, which thought to have the utmost antioxidant activity of all the carotenoids, and it also help your eyes a lot.

 

     Secondly, blue berries are also antioxidant rich fruits, they both have a great source of vitamins, minerals, and various other healthy chemical contents that can make you to have long term memories.  The antioxidants present in the fruit foil the growth of cancer cells, lower cholesterol level and helps in maintaining a healthy skin for you.

 

     Lastly, walnuts are also an excellent food or snack to eat which includes lots of Antioxidants. Walnuts is an inclusion of several kinds of neuroprotective compounds like vitamin E, melatonin, antioxidants, etc. It is anti-aging and can enhance memory or delay your brain decline in when you get older it is a power packed fruit. They are popular for their cancer fighting properties, promoting healthy heart, aide weight control, and reduce sugar levels, and these can help your brain cells too! Walnuts look like a brain indeed!

 

    These are some basic foods you can eat to have a better memory.

First method is sleeping. Sleep has mainly 4 stages: which are REM, Non-REM 1, Non-REM 2, Non-REM 3. According to research, there is a special brain activity which transfer information from hippocampus to the neocortex, it changes the short-time activity to the long-time activity. Scientists call this activity “sharp wave ripple”. But this activity will only happen at the deepest level of sleep, which is Non-REM Stage 3. So, good sleep will help improve memory.

 

Playing games can also help improve memory. According to the paragraph, some mental activity might help memory, it was good for your brain. Like math, puzzle… Even reading and writing! This can also help you with critical thinking and study, maybe also math Summative. 

 

The last method I’m going to talk about is eating high antioxidant food. Our brain can also benefit from a healthy diet, like our body. Food that contain antioxidant are good for our brain cells, this also help with memory.

There are many ways to improve on your memory such as playing video games, exercise well, a eating well, and sleep well can increase brain memory, let we have a better understanding of pictures placed,  improve a better understanding of loci and mnemonic method.  For example, eating well can let you improve your memorize skills since eating food can give power to your brain in order to do your work.  Also, playing video games can let you improve on your imagination so it would be more easier for you to use the loci method and mnemonic that was good methods to improve your memory.

So, this evidence suggests that these things are beneficial to our memories.  

 

One way to improve your memory is by getting good sleep. Getting good sleep could help you to form your long-term memory. When you are sleeping, your sleep is separated into three levels, 1, 2, and three. Stage 3 is the deepest level of your sleep, and a person who sleeps will go through these stages at least three times. Experiments shows that when you are in the deepest level of you sleep, your brains created activity to help you form long term memory. This activity transfers new information from the hippocampus to the neocortex, which is the part the brains store long term memory. So, it’s good for you to get good sleep to improve your ability of memory.

 

Another way to improve your memory is by using the “Loci Method,” also called memory palace. Your memory palace can be placed at any place you like, but it must be a place that you know very well, such as your home, school, or classroom. For example, you are trying to remember the information for a test. So, let’s say that your memory palace is based on your house. Now, you visualize yourself walking around the house, placing information you need to know all over the house. For example, you placed one of the information you learned onto your desk, another on you sofa, and another hanging on your television.  Once you’re done, try to visualize yourself walking around the house again. As you pass through places, you will remember what information you placed there. Memory palace is a good method for you to remember things.

A very good way for you to improve your memory in a fun way is by doing mnemonics. For example, some people may have trouble to remember the colors of the rainbow and the order they appear in. someone made a “word” for the first letter in the colors, “ROY G BIV”. Another example is some people (like me) have trouble to remember the conjunctions in English grammar. So, our English teacher told us the “FANBOYS”, it stands for: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so. Some people even made something hard for them to remember into funny words, phrases, even songs! So, using mnemonics can help you remember things in a fun and interesting way.

 

In conclusion, Sleeping, Memory palace, and Mnemonics are all good ways to improve your memory, you can use them any time when you want to memorize something. These ways don’t just improve your memory, they also make you healthy and have a longer life!

Do you ever know that there are three main ways to easily improve your memories? The only thing you’ll need to do is to follow instructions and record some things with your pens. One way is to making lists and strategies, you can either write on hands, or type it on a computer. You can also label things like classes and home works for this weekend, nor places you want to go this year, by recording, you’ll be able to memorized all these things down easily. Another way, which is the thing you do almost every day at night, to get more sleep. The scientists discovered this way of improving memory in a study of rats. They trained the rats to learn a route in a maze, then they let the rats sleep. They gave one group of sleeping rats a drug that stopped brain-wave activity. As a result, the rats have trouble remembering the route. And because of the Rutgers study, we now knows how our brains create long term memory. The study proves to us that sleeping is very important, during deep sleep, brain-waves transformed the short term memories from the hippocampus to the neocortex, and the sharp waves ripples the neocortex and creates long term memories, we can also record these memories in our head for a long period of time, even months. Another simple way, is to eat foods often with high antioxidants, examples like blueberries can help improve your brain memories, they’re also good for your brain cells, this can help memory too. And by using these three methods, you can keep these happy memories in your brain for a very long time.

It’s easy to improve your memory if you have an intelligent idea that’s good for your brain or your memory, below this paragraph, I have some great advice for you.

The first idea I support is Eating blueberries. Blueberries have antioxidants, which is a substance in food and products that can prevent and the harmful chemical reactions in your body, these are good for the brains cells to help your memory, and the most important is blueberries are tasty! It tastes sour and sweet like orange juice, so it’s very delicious. 

Also, I think doing some exercise is good for your memory, too. Because doing enough exercise can keep body healthy. And have a healthy body can be more energetic to remember thing, also, your brain will be more clearly than before because you got loads of energy. But don’t forget that doing too much exercise will harm your body or feel very uncomfortable, safety first! 

Actually, I believed doing something you like is good for brain. The evidence is doing something you really like can make your body and brain more relax. If somebody is in a relaxed state, they must be easier to memory than the people that’s in a tension. After my experiment, I found that being relax can test better than making myself in a higher tension in the examination and doing the things I like is the best method I found to feel relax in a short amount of life.

From using these methods, you can memorize things easier and faster. *

*To be honest, I bet the methods I gave are only effective for a small group of people, but not everyone.

By sleeping and avoiding stress, you can improve your memory. When you’re sleeping, you brain is not resting like the other organs. At your deepest sleep, your brain is creating brain waves and pushing your memory from recent days into your neocortex. 

The last way to help your memory is that don’t memorize or think about things before eating or after eating. After and before eating, your blood and body systems were working on your stomach to digest food, and not working on your brain. So, if you think about something, you might not have an answer. It is same as reading and memorizing. You can memorize you work before you sleep because when you sleep, your brain will work on the memory during your day time. They will organize the information gathered from the day. These are the ways that can help your memory and brain system.

How to improve your memory? Here are 3 main ways to improve long term memory. You can sleep more, eat food with antioxidant, and by taking notes of what you want to remember or some very important things.

Sleep more can definitely improve long term memory. It can help your brain be more relaxing and can better organize the new information in a long day.

By eating food with antioxidant helps improve your memory too. Especially eat Citrus fruits, such as oranges, clementine, and lemons. Citrus fruits contain Vitamin B which is good for the brain.

If these ways can’t help you improve your memory, there is another thing you can try. You can write important things that you want to remember on paper to not forget it. If your paper is gone, there is a way is to note it on the computer or phone and save it, this way you won’t lose it anymore. Sometimes computers and phones can crash in accidents, so remembering in mind is a great idea to not forget things.

     There are many ways to improve your memory, even some habits in daily life can make a difference. Some habits like eating food, sleeping, and playing video games can help.

 

     The first thing I am going to talk about is food, the most useful food is fatty fish, this includes salmon, trout, and sardines, these fish contain omega-3, 60% of your brain is fat, and half of it is omega-3, so this is also why fatty fish is also known as “brain food”. The second food which is good for improving memory is coffee (not suggested to use for students), coffee is made up of two main ingredients - caffeine and antioxidants, these two ingredients can have many positive effects- 1. Increased alertness: Caffeine keeps your brain alert by blocking adenosine, a chemical messenger that makes you sleepy. 2. Improve mood: caffeine can boost some cells which makes you feel good. 3. Help concentration: research has shown that when people drink coffee in the morning have more success doing activities that involves concentration. The third food which increases memory is blueberries, blueberries, and other deeply colored berries can deliver anthocyanins, anthocyanins have effects which are similar to medicine which helps your brain, so blueberries can improve your memory and help your brain. These are the main three foods that scientists recommend eating for memory improvement.
