A healthy lifestyle is the good way to go in battling memorizationissues.
You may not know it but what you eat and the things thatyou do everyday affect the way you perform mental tasks, such aslearning and memorizing.
Just as you do regular exercises for your body which allows goodoxygen to flow to your brain;
it's also good to observe goodsleeping habits.
Proper sleep (sleeping up to 8 hours) overnight isa good way to battle memory lapses later on.
Also, it keeps youactive on any memory-requiring activities that are going to go yourway, allowing you to concentrate more.As for a dose of your regular brain exercises, try the journeysystem.
It's a form of Loci system.
So pretend that you have a boxof chocolates, computer mouse, shoes and an apple to memorize. Youtake them with you as you travel along the highway going to theoffice since you'll be taking the same route again going back home.This is important because it matters if you know an area very wellor not.
If not, then the journey system wouldn't be too useful.
So imagine yourself driving to work. First, picture a box ofchocolates replacing all the large billboards you usually passeveryday, imagine them hanging there, big and wide similar to amovie screen.
Next, you approach slow traffic just beneath theoverpass. Picture the cars passing on it as computer mouse carstraveling really, really fast in lanes.
After that, you try to beatthe time so you won't go late and pass by your usual lunch place.
Instead of a huge hamburger on the roof, you see a huge pair ofshoes.
And lastly, you reach the parking lot and greet the talkingapple at the gate who is normally the polite old security guard.
Silly, yet simple and effective.
So try to alter the normal things you see everyday to somethingextraordinary and unbelievable.
Your memory cells will thank youfor it.
