11 WAYS TO INCREASE YOUR MEMORY POWER!!!

We all want to improve our memory power so that we can study well and remember more things that we spend time on.  But Sometimes it feels impossible to remember everything. Between the Bernoulli's theorem, Organic Reactions, and the life cycle of the pteridophytes, how do you keep it all in your head?

Here's a post which will help you to remember things efficiently. The goal here is to better encode information into your long-term memory.

1. Focus Your Attention

Attention is one of the major components of memory. Start off with choosing a study spot where your focus can rest fully on the task. A quiet room with good lighting is best for reading. Try to study in a place free of distractions such as television, music, and other diversions. Getting rid of distractions might be a challenge, especially if you are surrounded by noisy children.

2. Avoid Marathon Session

Make mind maps, self written notes or may be notes in your regional language.

4. Keep calm

Stress decreases your ability to encode. When you’re stressed, your body releases stress hormones like cortisol. Cortisol has been shown to greatly impair the brain’s memory process,  Anything you do to relax and reduce stress can and likely will help your memory.

8. Don't run away from Difficult Information

Difficult information are the areas of maximum scoring opportunity. It is so because along with you others are too finding it difficult. If with extra inputs you study that topic, that topic will eventually be the difference between you and all.   try restructuring what you have learned so it will be easier to remember. When you come across an especially difficult concept, devote some extra time to memorizing the information.

Sleep is important for memory and learning. Getting enough sleep every night and maintaining as regular a sleep and wake time as possible will take you miles toward a better memory.

10. Avoid bright screens before bed

The blue light emitted by cell phone, TV, and computer screens inhibits the production of melatonin, a hormone that controls your sleep-wake cycle (circadian rhythm). A poorly regulated sleep cycle can really take a toll on sleep quality.
