Memory

I’ve been a little obsessed with memory lately. As I get a bit older, I realize my memory isn’t what it used to be. So I’m very curious as to how much is age related and how much of it can be combated with a little work. Think of it as gym work for your brain. I recently ran across this interesting article about how your mind may be capable of retaining more than you think.

I’m not good at relating the neuroscience part of the article, for that go here. But what I found really interesting was that people with amazing memories have not always had them, they trained them to be that way. Specifically the article says “We all have this skill within us.” There is hope for me yet! Now I’m off to start training.
