Namaskar! In our mind, memory plays a very important role. Nowadays, forgetfulness is increasing due to anxiety, stress, and worries. Living in a distracted state affects memory. Today, I’m going to tell you about a technique that can keep your memory strong, always.
Firstly, try to approach everything with genuine interest and passion. Whether it’s learning a new language or having a conversation, engage in the activity with utmost interest and passion. When we become passionately involved in whatever we are doing, our brain is more likely to store that information for the future. In cognitive psychology, it is stated that emotional engagement enhances memory formation. This is because passionate involvement releases neurotransmitters such as dopamine, which are associated with reward and motivation. So, approach all your activities with love, passion, and interest. Value every moment and give 100% to it. Such an attitude will keep your memory strong, always.
Secondly, I will tell you about a simple technique that works very well for memory retention. It is the practice of writing down all those important things and regularly reading them. When you write things down, your brain gets better at remembering them. Writing helps your brain store information by making strong connections between what you are writing and what you already know. The more you write, the better you remember. Always make a habit of writing and keep revisiting what you have written.
In Mahi Patan’s Yog Sutra 1.20, it says, „Shha Samadi.“ This highlights the role of repetition in attaining focus and concentration. In order to improve your memory, remember to develop curiosity and interest in everything you do, and write down things you wish to remember well. Remember, our mind has a limitless capacity to remember everything we experience on the journey of life, on a journey of growth and self-discovery.
By following these two methods, you will find that your forgetfulness will fade away, and you will be able to retain the knowledge that you wish to remember. Yes, knowledge is power. Namaskar!
