The Chemicals of Memory
The Chemicals of Memory
H/T Peter Hatherley
Simple Method for Enhancing Long Term Memory
A recent article in Neuroscience News has determined that a simple technique can radically enhance memory retention.
Strangely enough idea isn't new but the science that proves definitely isn't. Harry Lorrayne wrote on the subject in a book called "How to develop a Superpower Memory" way back in 1957
He would personally greet huge numbers of people in an auditorium and even offer to pay them a $1000 if they asked him a question and he didn't remember their names. See https://goo.gl/M3Uh2m
He utilised abstract connections to make absolutely sure it was retained in memory and then daisy chained them to connect them in conceptual memory. Now it seems that he was way ahead of his time.
Now nearly 60 years later the science proves why it happens and even isolates the chemicals that make it happen
Fortunately I embraced the principles in this book when I was very young and the foundational principles that he taught within it have stayed with me ever since.
This scientific revelation suddenly became immediately obvious when I thought back to what I learnt those many years ago.
I realised how it relates to how I utilise conceptual creativity and semantic fusions as tools to remember things more accurately in the future.
It is available here in PDF format. See https://goo.gl/dgKzke
It describes the use of abstract creative connections and how these methods can intrinsically improve your memory
Exercising our own mind, especially in terms of accessing our own memory, may in fact be a perfectly natural way to produce the right kind of chemicals to prevent early onset Alzheimers.

good old Harry I have his book in my library Zara Altair. Yes the brain science proves he was right all these years. Should I associate that we are the same age;-)! Anyone who would like to read the book read and click the link that Zara Altair graciously shared with her comments....

Thanks a million Zara Altair
Thank you Zara Altair, Pierre Provost and Peter Hatherley for this 'brainy' article. I am going to read it - but before I click that link and get lost in the depth of that book; I wanted to ask about the other three chemicals - Endorphins for endurance, Serotonin for pride of accomplishment and Oxytocin for love, trust and relationships.
ReplyDeleteWhat role do these play and is there a 'healthy' balance that needs to be reached for these?
Vivekananda Baindoor Rao balance with a healthy diet. The 3 hormones act as you described in your comment.
ReplyDeleteVivekananda Baindoor Rao Great question. I'll leave it to the brain chemistry folks. I do know that fear can block memory.
ReplyDeletePierre Provost Everything works together. Trusting our brain works. :)
ReplyDeleteZara Altair when you say trusting our brains, I see a bit of irony there. If our thinking itself happens within our own brains then trusting or not trusting also happens there!
ReplyDeleteVivekananda Baindoor Rao Yes. Why trust works.
