Close Your Eyes When you try to remember something, chances are you look up and away or even close your eyes. This may seem arbitrary, but shutting off your vision is actually very helpful when you're trying to dig up information in your brain. as cognitive scientist Art Markman explains in Psychology Today. Research from the University of Surrrey in the U.K. found that closing your eyes while recalling an event could help you remember details 23 percent more accurately. How does it work? It's thought that once visual distractions are removed, your brain focuses more efficiently. The same idea applies to other senses as well. If you're trying to remember a sound or someone's voice, complex noises can make the process more difficult. Basically, when you need to remember something, isolate the relevant sense. It'll help you concentrate and find the information you're looking for.

Learn a Foreign Language - Take a French Class I am a member of the American Association of University Women - San Clemente-Capistrano Bay (CA) Branch and within this group I participate in the French Club, aka Conversations Francais. We're a diverse group of woman with varying experience with the French language/culture. Some of the girls have lived in French speaking communities, others have taken high school or college level French classes, some have enjoyed traveling to France or other French speaking countries. I myself, was raised in a French speaking home. Now, being that I was the youngest child, I got away with being spoken to in French, but responding to my parents in English. My French comprehension abilities are high, my French speaking abilities are low. My mother, who suffered from early onset dementia, continued throughout the remainder of her days to speak to me in her native tongue - French. She would continually chide me by saying "Parlez-moi dans ma langue!" Translation:"Speak to me in my language!". My French club involvement enhances my life two-fold; 1) I am working to keep my brain sharp by practicing a second language. 2) I know my mother would be so proud of the fact that I now practice Parler sa langue - translation - Speaking her language.

Write in Red Ink Traditionally red pens have been used for drawing attention to things, important information and warning signs.

Use your opposite Hand Brush Your Teeth with Your Other Hand - Using your non-dominant side to tackle a daily task or two is a great way to challenge your brain to act in new ways.

#selfcare #boostyourbrainpower  Focus, Focus, Focus...Want a healthier, more focused, better-functioning brain? This is easier than you think to achieve improved cognition and memory. The co-authors of “Staying Sharp”, doctor David Alter, Ph.D. and Henry Emmons, M.D., say that "If you want to boost your brain, you have to focus your attention on good self-care,". (One of my favorite topics...) "People fear Alzheimer's, dementia and other forms of disease that cause cognitive decline, yet there is a lot we can do to improve our brain health and lower our risk of these diseases too.
