"Sensible advice for the seriously inclined."--Time
Frustrated by your forgetfulness? Don't be. Memory lapses aren't necessarily a sign of age--more often they are a sign of the times, as we're all inundated with important information to remember, from PINs and passwords to children's schedules and crucial business facts.
In Total Memory Workout, Dr. Cynthia Green, the founder and director of the Memory Enhancement Program at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, outlines her simple and effective program to achieve maximum memory fitness in just eight easy lessons. Each lesson focuses on one aspect of memory followed by a series of specific "memorcises" designed to build memory muscle. You'll find fun and effective ways to:
- Remember names and faces
- Recall important information at work
- Improve your retention of facts in books and technical data
- Keep track of appointments and dates
- Remember where you put your keys, left your glasses, parked your car
- And more!
You'll also learn the ten lifestyle factors most likely to lower your memory potential--and how to change them--the best diet to boost longevity and your brain power, the truth about "memory enhancing" supplements such as ginkgo biloba, how certain medications may affect memory performance, and when memory lapses are normal and when they indicate an underlying disease.
Unlike other memory programs that rely on tricks and gimmicks, here are practical memory-training techniques that are easy to learn and that really work. No matter your age, you can regain a level of memory fitness you never dreamed possible. You have nothing to lose but your car keys . . . again.
