Tips for keeping your memory in top shape
Manage episode 372058154 series 3455427
Hi! Welcome to the Complete Interpreter podcast by the Interpreting Coach.
Why 'Complete Interpreter'? Because you're not just a translation machine, you're also a person and a business owner, and I hope to help you take a 360 view of yourself share some great tried-and-tested strategies to improve your interpreting skills, mindset, and marketing.
This episode is all about memory!
To improve your long term memory and recall of facts and vocab:
- create mental images, using all your senses
- create a mental image or story using rhymes, humour, or something outrageous
- use the 'loci' technique
- when reading information you want to retain, use the biggest screen possible
- revisit information you want to remember (e.g. use a flashcard app like Quizlet for vocab)
To improve working memory:
- try puzzles like crosswords, sudoku, or mental arithmetic
- try games (board games, memory games, chess)
- apparently, exercise, relaxation, and sleep are all good for working memory (or perhaps a lack thereof is bad for working memory...)
- problem-solving exercises
- try remembering the last 10 Prime Ministers in your country, and putting them in alphabetical order in your head
Food for memory:
- green leafy veg
- oily fish (2 portions per week)
- berries
- tea and coffee?
- nuts and seeds, especially walnuts and sunflower seeds
- soya (?)
- a square of dark chocolate!
Let me know what you'd like me to talk about next!
