A strong memory depends on the health and vitality of our brain. There are lots we can do to improve our memory and mental performance. Boost our mental performance as much as possible. Preserve and enhance our grey matter as we age.
The human brain has an astonishing ability to adapt and change even into old age. This ability is known as neuroplasticity. With the right stimulation, our brain can form new neural pathways, alter existing connections, and adapt and react in ever-changing ways. The brain's incredible ability to reshape itself holds true when it comes to learning and memory. We can harness the natural power of neuroplasticity to increase our cognitive abilities, enhance our ability to learn new information, and improve our memory at any age.
1. Brain workouts
By adulthood, our brain has already developed millions of neural pathways that help us process and recall information quickly, solve familiar problems, and execute habitual tasks with minimal mental effort. But if we always stick to these well-worn paths, we aren't giving our brain the stimulation it needs to keep growing and developing. The more we work out our brains, the better we'll be able to process and remember information. But not all activities are equal. The best brain exercises break our routine and challenge us to use and develop new brain pathways.
Four key elements of a good brain workout
A. It teaches us something new. To strengthen the brain, we need to keep learning and developing new skills i.e. something that's unfamiliar and out of our comfort zone.
B. It's challenging. It must be something that requires good mental effort. Demands our full and close attention.
C. A skill that can stretch our capabilities. When a previously difficult level starts to feel comfortable, that means it's time to tackle the next level of performance.
