The brain contains around 86 billion neurons but comes in weighing only 1.4kg. Each neuron connects via electrically-powered chemical signals with up to 1,000 of its neuron neighbours. Just like a machine, each neurone is like a tiny cog that has a job to do. However, unlike a machine it is constantly changing. Your brain has unimaginable potential to change and ‘learn’ with new connections forming every second.

A myth that persists is that we only use 10% of our brains. This theory derived from the 1800s has been disproved over and over. However, the notion refuses to disappear probably because it appeals to our longing to be better and smarter as a species, and our desire to outsmart those who came before us.

Ways to Improve Your Memory

We use every single brain cell, but different parts of our brain are used at different times depending on what we are doing. Buried deep in the temporal lobe of the brain is a structure called the hippocampus. This part of the brain is heavily involved in learning and memory and is an integral part of the limbic system. The limbic system is the gatekeeper to which memories are stored and which are discarded as insignificant and is heavily reliant upon your emotions, good and bad.

To increase the retention of information here are a few methods that may help.

1. Tell Stories

Everyone enjoys stories and this is a great way to encourage memories to be transferred to your long-term storage. Telling stories ties positive emotions to the anecdotes forming very strong memories

2. Create Rhymes

Creating rhymes or mnemonics creates associations between letters and numbers and the information you are trying to retain

3. Try Mind Maps

Mind maps create visual connections to the information that you want to learn. The more you explore a topic with connection, the more information you are likely to retain.

4. Keep a Diary

A diary is great for recording events as they happened close to the event. Over time our memories can become contaminated by emotions or patchy recollection.
