First, listen to more music to help you remember.
On the basis of medicine and psychology, Bulgarian Dr. Lazanov studied some music and found that adagio in Bach and Handel's works can eliminate the tension in the brain and make people enter a state of meditation. He asked students to listen to slow-paced music, relax their muscles, and read materials that need to be memorized according to the beat of music. Play cheerful music for 2 minutes after learning, so that the brain can recover from memory activities. Many students who have tried this method feel that the memory effect is very good.
Second, recite classics to improve memory
Do we know that people often recite some famous articles, idioms, good sentences, short poems, mathematical formulas, loanwords and technical essentials when studying and even in their leisure time? That is the "hard work" to exercise memory. When Marx was young, he memorized poems in an unskilled foreign language to exercise his memory. Reciting 10 to 20 minutes every day can also improve memory.
Third, the memory efficiency of mind and body is high.
Science has proved that correct repetition is the main method of effective memory, especially when people memorize knowledge through their own brains, hands, ears and mouths in learning, the memory efficiency is high and the effect is good. Because in memory, we should not only think with our brains, but also read aloud and write by hand, and unconsciously mobilize more memory "channels" to participate in memory in learning, so that the memory traces will deepen and the memory effect will of course be better.
Fourth, whimsy and strong memory.
When we study and read books, it is often difficult to remember some numbers and years. If you are good at associative memory, it is easy to remember. For example, the pile table and chamber method or the Roman chamber method and the pictograph method are all manifestations of the association method. You can use a stake or room as a storage stake for images. The principle is to connect what you want to remember with what you already know. The original thing is called "wooden stake", and the new things to remember are connected with wooden stakes. This method is used to memorize a large number of materials and foreign languages.
5. Chewing more can increase memory.
Science has proved that chewing is one of the effective ways to prevent memory loss. Some people think that chewing can make people relax. If the elderly chew less, their blood hormones are high enough to cause short-term memory loss. If you observe the crowd, you will find that people who chew regularly have good teeth, eat more fragrant, and their learning ability and memory ability will also be enhanced. Another example is chewing chaff, which Americans like best.
Sixth, women's nagging encourages memory.
To some extent, nagging helps women to prolong their memory and life. In the use of language, nagging is also the repetition of something and someone. Frequent repetition will certainly deepen the nagger's attention and memory of something or someone. Experts believe that women are more willing to communicate with others than men; When men get old, they are mostly silent. Speech is an indispensable way of psychological catharsis, which can prevent memory decline.
Seven, clever diet helps to remember.
Proper intake of "healthy oil" can reduce the occurrence of thrombosis. For example, olive oil and fish oil are good choices to maintain normal blood circulation, and vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins and minerals are also good choices to maintain health. A considerable number of people are not unable to remember, but lack the memory information transmitter-choline acetate in their brains. If you eat these foods regularly, you can greatly improve your memory.
Eight, people who love to play more have strong memories.
Physical activity can improve people's health, while mental activity can reduce memory loss. Especially those who love to play love activities have a wide range of interests, dabble in many things, have a wide range of knowledge and have a strong memory. Science has proved that dancing, reading, playing cards and learning foreign languages can increase the number of synapses, enhance the signal transmission between nerve cells and consolidate memory.
Nine, exercise and fitness can prevent memory loss.
Generally speaking, people who are healthy, love sports and life are full of energy, strong learning ability and strong memory. People can promote brain self-renewal during exercise. Experts believe that long-term cardiovascular exercise can reduce brain tissue loss and memory loss caused by age. Many studies show that to keep your brain active, you only need to exercise regularly. Children who exercise three or four times a week generally get higher test scores when they are 10 or 1 1 years old. Older people who often walk perform better in memory tests than those who are accustomed to sedentary peers. By pumping extra oxygen into the brain that consumes energy, exercise can enhance intelligence.
The latest research also refutes the statement that people cannot produce new brain cells after birth. On the contrary, the study found that physical exercise can actually promote the growth of new brain cells. In mice, the brain enhancement effect caused by exercise is most obvious in the hippocampus related to learning and memory.
Ten, family happiness, physical and mental pleasure, prevent brain failure.
A large number of social surveys have proved that family happiness is a necessary condition for learners to improve their learning and memory ability. In particular, two of a kind of lovers or lovers can make both sides secrete hormones and acetylcholine, which is beneficial to enhancing the body's immunity and delaying brain aging.
How to enhance memory
First, sensory memory focuses on interpreting memory as information processing or absorbing knowledge. In any case, we must first pay attention to it, and then we should not be "blind" and "deaf" in the negative aspects. On the positive side, it can also record information or learning materials to be memorized through the senses (vision, hearing, smell, etc.). ) and use it as information to be processed. This is just like the purchase and login procedures of new books before they enter the library; No matter how good the book is, if it is not purchased and recorded by officials, it naturally cannot be put into storage for people to read. Choose a book when buying a new book, and whether it is appropriate to choose a book depends on whether you have paid attention to it; Login needs to be accurate, and of course it depends on attention. In the second section, we listed three conditions to attract attention: familiarity, novelty and importance. These three conditions refer to the reasons why individuals choose one of them to pay attention to in many exciting situations. If these conditions are applied to reading textbooks, familiarity and importance may be partially consistent, but they are not necessarily novel. So, under the mentality that students have to read textbooks, how can they force themselves to concentrate? For this problem, the following two suggestions are useful. Reducing distractions to stimulate attention is selective, and the more stimuli in the environment, the harder it is to choose; It's hard to concentrate under the condition of "too many things to see" Therefore, one of the ways to concentrate is to eliminate or reduce external interference and stimulation, so as not to cause distraction. In practice, we can start from the following three aspects: (1) changing the reading environment to isolate ourselves from external interference and stimulation; This can be achieved by going to the library and choosing a seat in a quiet corner to study. (2) Simplify reading activities and don't bring anything distracting (such as novels and cosmetics). ) Except books and necessary stationery. (3) If you study at home, you must keep the room simple and quiet; There are so few furnishings on the desktop that your mind can't reach anything but books. Many young people like to pay attention to tuning when reading (for example, reading while listening to music), but they don't know that "tuning" is a distracting stimulus. Simplify the purpose before reading or doing something, and seek concentration. Focus is to focus on an ongoing thing without hesitation. Even if colleagues have several things for you to do, you can only do one thing well in a period of time. People don't have three heads and six arms, and it's inevitable to attend to one thing and lose sight of another. If there are several kinds of homework at night, they should be assigned in order according to the time and the weight of the homework; After the allocation is decided, concentrate on completing one thing for a period of time according to the allocation. So the purpose is simple and the mind is single-minded. Just like rushing, it can accept the limit of the farthest distance it can walk in a unit time. Thinking about the east and the west, on the surface, I was busy. In the end, I used up all my time and energy, but there was still no result.
Second, short-term memory has four principles. According to the characteristics of short-term memory mentioned above, although short-term memory is only a psychological activity within 20 seconds, it is the most important process in the whole process of memory processing information. In order to make short-term memory play its best role, the following four principled suggestions are put forward: The third section of short-term memory research mentioned the principle of using phonetic codes first. When learning Chinese materials, phonetic code is the most important of the three coding programs. As far as our experience in learning English is concerned, words that are easy to pinyin are easy to learn and remember. According to this principle, whether learning English or Chinese, when encountering new words, we should first seek correct pronunciation. After correct pronunciation, it is easier to remember the shape and meaning of words. This is especially true when learning foreign language pinyin. Expanding the source of meaning and memory span Short-term memory is limited by memory span. Generally speaking, people can only write down about 7 2-meaning elements or an average of 7-meaning elements within 20 seconds after an audio-visual experience. The signifier itself is not fixed; A sememe can be a number or a telephone number composed of numbers; It can be a single word, a person's name, a place name, a compound word or an idiom composed of several words. According to this inference, if we only look at the principle that memory span includes seven sememes on average, directly expanding sememes is equivalent to indirectly expanding memory span. The method of expanding sememe is called sememe set. Sememe set is to combine several separated sememes into a coherent meaning. As far as language learning is concerned, it includes considerable language ability. Therefore, as far as learning knowledge is concerned, enhancing Chinese ability is the fundamental way to enhance memory. Give full play to the characteristics of working memory. Short-term memory is named for its short memory time (less than 20 seconds). According to the function of memory, short-term memory is also called operational memory. Operation refers to thinking, which refers to the special thinking and confirmation of the perceived information in a short time for further processing. For example, if you see a car accident at an intersection while driving, if you are not careful, your memory afterwards will naturally be blurred. If you had paid a little attention at that time, take a look at the scene of the accident and write down the time, place, model and general situation of the scene. This is also a 20-second experience, and you will leave a clearer memory. Entering long-term memory and short-term memory after review is only one of the three stages of information processing. There are two possible ways to deal with the information after short-term memory: one is to discard it after achieving the purpose of use; This is a temporary call. The other is to transport it into long-term memory for future retrieval; The experience of learning English to look up words belongs to this category. There is no problem in adopting the first method. If the second method is adopted, it is not easy to achieve the purpose of inputting long-term memory without reviewing the short-term memory period in time. Therefore, readers are advised to pay more attention when looking up English words, and repeat their cognition of the shape, sound and meaning of words as much as possible to strengthen their memory.
Third, long-term memory adopts various strategies to talk about ways to improve memory, which generally refers to long-term memory. Generally speaking, the absorption and application of general knowledge mostly rely on long-term memory. Psychologists have discussed many strategies to improve long-term memory: the following are introduced for readers' reference:
In the fourth section, when discussing long-term memory, it is mentioned that the coding of long-term memory is mainly Italian code, and the concept of double-code hypothesis is also mentioned. This is a common phenomenon and does not limit the search criteria. For example, when you specify the retrieval criteria, you should not only pay attention to the memory of semantic codes. Therefore, when learning, multiple codes should be given according to the nature of the material in order to increase memory. Take learning Chinese textbooks as an example. For every word you learn, in fact, besides compiling shape code, phonetic code and semantic code in memory at the same time, you must also add a dynamic code. After you have the dynamic code, you don't need to write the memorized words easily according to the requirements of the retrieval guide (the act of writing is the dynamic code in memory).
Trajectory method refers to the method of learning and memorizing materials with spatial order relation. In fact, everything with spatial order is always inseparable from time; Get there first, then get there, what to do first, and then what to do. This is the principle of track memory. Learning according to this principle and then remembering according to this principle will naturally reduce forgetting. Some people advise forgetful people to remember stories from the beginning: which day, where they have been, who they met, what they have done and so on. When trying a case in court, tracing is often used to recall memories. Trajectory method is generally used to trace back the memory afterwards, so that the data stored in the memory can be easily found by trajectory when searching. But it is still not helpful for information that has not been input for a long time. Therefore, the concept of trajectory method can be extended to the learning process; In the first stage of information processing, it is easy for people to psychologically associate the materials they want to learn with time and space. In this way, the utility of trajectory method will be expanded when it is extracted from long-term memory in the future.
Keyword method was originally a method of remembering names by using psychological images, and later it was extended to learning foreign languages. For example, if someone introduces you to a Mr. Yan, you will immediately think of "Yan Wang" for easy memory. Another person introduces you to Miss Qian, and you may think of "money". All the "Rebecca" and "money" you associate can form a mental image, which is easy to remember. This kind of materials and words to be remembered by forming psychological images (for example, using the psychological images of banknotes to remember the words of money) are called keywords. Keyword method has been used to learn foreign languages now. For example, Russian zdanie means architecture, and its pronunciation is similar to English dawn. The word dawn will arouse psychological association: the glass windows of buildings reflect the morning light of dawn. In this way, the English word dawn is the key word, because it can be used to help learn the Russian word zdanie.
Subjective organization method (SO) refers to the tendency of individuals to organize subjectively in order to remember their own psychology when facing a variety of dissimilar things. For example, use 100 words that are irrelevant (but everyone knows them) as learning materials and appear on the screen for half a minute at a time. Then the subjects were asked to memorize by themselves, without having to write down all the memorized words freely in any order. After writing the second time, the words are the same, but the order between words has changed; Do the same dictation test in half a minute. So go ahead. Finally, the order of memorizing words was analyzed. It is found that the dictation order does not change with the order of each occurrence; But everyone has their own order. The reason why the subject arranges this way is to memorize and systematically organize the originally irrelevant materials according to his own subjective experience. According to this inference, this psychological tendency can be used to improve memory when learning fragmentary materials.
Situational promotion refers to a method of using previous learning situations to help memory. In the fourth part, when discussing the coding of long-term memory, two concepts, contextual memory and coding specific principle, are mentioned. Both refer to the whole situation of learning at that time, which is closely related to later memories. For example, it may be difficult for you to recall the experience of learning slides in kindergarten, but if you go back to your previous kindergarten, it will definitely help you remember. Of course, it is sometimes difficult to go back to the previous scene, but we can still recall the scene with the help of psychological imagination. If you are asked to name two classmates sitting in the left and right seats near you in the first grade class, you may not remember them at the moment, but if you return to the classroom situation at that time in your imagination, you may remember their names.
3. Foods that help to enhance memory-
There are countless billions of nerve cells in the human brain. For mental workers, the activities that nerve cells need to carry out are more arduous. Some foods are very conducive to developing intelligence, making thinking more agile, paying more attention and stimulating creativity and imagination, so they are very suitable for mental workers.
Milk is a perfect nutrient, because it is rich in protein, calcium and amino acids needed by the brain. Moreover, calcium in milk is easily absorbed by people and is an indispensable and important substance for brain metabolism. At the same time, it also contains vitamin B 1 and other elements that are very beneficial to nerve cells. If excessive brain use leads to insomnia, drinking a cup of hot milk before going to bed is very beneficial to sleep.
The rich lecithin in egg yolk can be decomposed by enzymes to produce rich acetylcholine, which quickly reaches the brain tissue after entering the blood. The activity function and memory of brain are closely related to the content of acetylcholine in brain. Eating 1 to 2 eggs a day can supply the body with enough choline, which is very beneficial to protect the brain and improve memory.
Fish can provide high-quality protein and calcium for the brain, while the fatty acids contained in freshwater fish are mostly unsaturated fatty acids, so it will not cause arteriosclerosis and do no harm to cerebral arteries and blood vessels. At the same time, it can protect cerebral vessels and promote brain cell activities.
Peanut is rich in lecithin and cephalin, which is an important substance needed by nervous system. Eating peanuts regularly can improve blood circulation, enhance memory and delay aging.
In addition, the corn embryo of corn is rich in unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid, which has the function of protecting cerebrovascular and reducing blood lipid. Day lily can soothe the nerves and relieve depression, but in order to avoid poisoning, day lily should not be eaten raw or fried alone, but should be cooked and eaten. Pepper is rich in vitamin C, ranking first among vegetables, and is also rich in carotene and vitamins. Capsaicin contained in pepper can stimulate taste, increase appetite, promote blood circulation in the brain, and make people energetic and active in thinking. Among vegetables, spinach is a brain-nourishing vegetable. Spinach is rich in vitamins A, C, B 1 and B2, and it is one of the "best suppliers" of brain cell metabolism. At the same time, it also contains a lot of chlorophyll, and it also has the function of strengthening the brain and improving intelligence. Among fruits, oranges contain a lot of vitamins A, B 1 and C, which are typical alkaline foods, and can eliminate the harm caused by a lot of acidic foods to the nervous system. Eating oranges in moderation can make people energetic, while fruits such as lemon, orange and grapefruit can replace oranges because they have similar effects. Among fruits, pineapple is another food that can enhance memory. Pineapple contains a lot of vitamin C and trace element manganese, and it has less calories. It is a fruit that is beneficial to improving memory.
People who often use their brains eat more of these foods, which is of great benefit to developing intelligence, concentrating and enhancing memory.
You can eat the following foods.
The following foods are very beneficial to the brain, so mental workers may wish to choose foods frequently.
1, milk. Milk is a nearly perfect nutrient. It is rich in protein, calcium and essential amino acids for the brain. Calcium in milk is most easily absorbed by people and is an indispensable and important substance for brain metabolism. In addition, it also contains vitamin B 1 and other elements that are very beneficial to nerve cells. If you have excessive insomnia with your brain, a cup of hot milk before going to bed will help you fall asleep.
2. eggs. Brain activity function and memory intensity are closely related to acetylcholine content in the brain. Experiments have proved that the beauty of eating chicken is that when lecithin in egg yolk is decomposed by enzymes, it can produce rich acetylcholine, which can reach brain tissue quickly after entering the blood and enhance memory. Foreign studies have confirmed that eating 1 or 2 eggs a day can supply enough choline to the body, which is of great benefit to protecting the brain and improving memory.
3. fish. They can provide high-quality protein and calcium for the brain. The fatty acids contained in freshwater fish are mostly unsaturated fatty acids, which will not cause arteriosclerosis and do no harm to cerebral arteries and vessels. On the contrary, they can also protect the cerebral vessels and promote the activity of brain cells.
4, monosodium glutamate. The main component of monosodium glutamate is sodium glutamate, which can be converted into glutamic acid under the action of gastric acid. Glutamate is the only amino acid involved in human brain metabolism, which can promote intellectual development and maintain and improve brain function. Regular intake of monosodium glutamate is helpful to improve mental retardation and memory impairment. Because monosodium glutamate can increase acetylcholine in the brain, it also has a certain effect on neurasthenia.
5. peanuts. Peanut is rich in lecithin and cephalin, which is an important substance needed by nervous system. It can delay the decline of brain function, inhibit platelet aggregation and prevent cerebral thrombosis. Experiments show that eating peanuts regularly can improve blood circulation, enhance memory and delay aging, which is a veritable "longevity fruit".
6. Xiaomi. Vitamin B 1 and B2 in millet are 1.5 times and 1 times higher than those in rice, respectively, and protein contains more tryptophan and methionine. Clinical observation shows that eating millet can prevent aging. If you usually eat more millet porridge and rice, it will be beneficial to the health care of your brain.
7. corn. Corn germ is rich in unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid, which can protect cerebrovascular and reduce blood lipid. Especially, the high water content of glutamic acid in corn helps to promote the metabolism of brain cells. Eating some corn often, especially fresh corn, has a brain-strengthening effect.
8. Day lily. People often say that day lily is a "girl without sorrow" and can "soothe the nerves and relieve depression". Note: Daylily should not be eaten raw or fried alone to avoid poisoning. It is best to eat it dry and cooked.
9. Chili. The content of vitamin C in pepper ranks first among all vegetables, and it is also rich in carotene and vitamins. Capsaicin contained in pepper can stimulate taste, increase appetite and promote blood circulation in the brain. In recent years, it has been found that the "spicy" taste of pepper is also a hormone in the human body to stimulate the pursuit of career success, which makes people energetic and active in thinking. Red peppers are better eaten raw.
10, spinach. Spinach is cheap and humble, but it is a brain-nourishing vegetable. Because spinach is rich in vitamins A, C, B 1 and B2, it is one of the "best suppliers" of brain cell metabolism. In addition, it also contains a lot of chlorophyll, and it also has the function of strengthening the brain and improving intelligence.
1 1, orange. Oranges contain a lot of vitamins A, B 1 and C, which are typical alkaline foods and can eliminate the harm of a lot of acidic foods to the nervous system. Eating oranges in moderation during the exam can make people energetic. In addition, lemon, citrus, grapefruit and so on. It has a similar effect and can replace oranges.
12, pineapple. Pineapple contains a lot of vitamin C and trace element manganese, and it is low in calories. Often eat shengjin refreshing effect. Some people call it a fruit that can improve people's memory. Pineapple is often the favorite fruit of some musicians, singers and actors, because they have to memorize a lot of music scores, lyrics and lines.
Other foods that enhance memory.
Some brain-nourishing foods are actually very common and inexpensive. Such as egg yolk, soybean, lean meat, milk, fish, animal viscera (heart, brain, liver, kidney), carrots, cereals, etc. These foods are not only rich in lecithin, but also easy to digest, which has a positive effect on the development of children's brain marrow.
1? Milk is rich in protein, calcium, vitamin B 1 and essential amino acids for the brain. Calcium in milk is the most easily absorbed. When you are overworked or insomnia, a cup of hot milk helps you fall asleep.
2? Eggs. Called the complete protein model by nutritionists, the absorption rate of human body is 99.7%. One egg a day is enough for normal people. People with poor memory can effectively improve their memory by eating 5 ~ 6 capsules a day (not suitable for people with high cholesterol). Children eat eggs properly from an early age, which is good for developing memory; Especially egg yolk, which contains essential nutrients for brain cells such as egg yolk and egg calcium, can enhance brain vitality. .
3? Fish. Can provide high-quality protein and calcium for the brain. The fatty acids contained in freshwater fish are mostly unsaturated fatty acids, which can protect cerebral vessels and promote brain cell activity.
4? Shellfish. The content of carbohydrate and fat is very low, almost pure protein, which can quickly supply the brain with a large amount of methionine. Therefore, it can greatly stimulate brain energy, improve mood and improve brain function. Taking shellfish as an appetizer can improve brain power as quickly as possible. But shellfish are more likely to accumulate toxins and pollutants in the ocean than fish.
5? Monosodium glutamate. The main component is sodium glutamate, which is the only amino acid involved in brain metabolism. It can increase acetylcholine in brain, promote intellectual development, maintain and improve brain function and improve memory.
6? Peanuts. Nuts such as peanuts are rich in lecithin, which can improve blood circulation, inhibit platelet aggregation, prevent cerebral thrombosis, delay brain function decline, enhance memory and delay aging. Is a veritable "longevity fruit".
7? Xiaomi. Dimensions B 1 and B2 are higher than m 1 ~ 1? Five times. Clinical observation shows that eating millet is beneficial to brain health care and can prevent aging.
8? Corn. Corn germ is rich in a variety of unsaturated fatty acids, which has the functions of protecting cerebrovascular and reducing blood lipid. Glutamate is high in content, which can promote the metabolism of brain cells and has a brain-strengthening effect.
9? Day lily can soothe the nerves and relieve depression, but it should not be eaten raw or fried alone to avoid poisoning. It is best to eat it dry and cooked.
10? Pepper. Vitamin C ranks first among vegetables and is also rich in carotene and vitamins. Capsaicin contained in pepper can stimulate taste, increase appetite and promote blood circulation in the brain. "Spicy" flavor is also a hormone in the human body to stimulate the pursuit of career success, which makes people energetic and active in thinking. Raw food is better.
1 1? Spinach. Rich in vitamins A, C, B 1 and B2, it is one of the best suppliers of brain cell metabolism. It also contains a lot of chlorophyll, and it also has the function of strengthening the brain and improving intelligence.
12? Oranges, lemons, oranges, grapefruit, etc. It contains a lot of vitamins A, B 1 and C, and is a typical alkaline food, which can eliminate the damage caused by a lot of acidic food to the nervous system. Eating oranges in moderation during the exam can make people energetic.
13? Pineapple is rich in vitamin C and trace element manganese, and low in calories. It is often used to replenish body fluids and improve memory.
14? Carrot. It can stimulate brain material exchange and relieve the pressure of back pain.
15? Avocado contains a lot of oleic acid, which is the energy source of short-term memory. Normal people can eat half an avocado every day.
16? Seaweed. Rich in chlorophyll, vitamins, minerals and protein, it can improve memory and attention.
17. Cabbage: Rich in vitamin B, it can prevent brain fatigue.
18. Soybean: contains egg yolk and rich protein. Eating a proper amount of soybeans or bean products every day can enhance memory.
19. Auricularia auricula: It contains protein, fat, polysaccharide, minerals, vitamins and other nutrients, and is a good brain tonic.
20. Apricot: rich in vitamins A and C, it can effectively improve blood circulation, ensure adequate blood supply to the brain and help the brain enhance memory.
