Health: Memory is really perfect!

Most of memory myth, that memory deteriorates as we get older. This is false. If your brain is used well and simulated regularly, as it goes older it gets better. Brain cells don’t die off with age. Good memory is not just good for learning, it’s good for your quality and enjoyment for life.

What is the number of things actually you remember?

1. Most people estimate somewhere between 100 and 10,000 items.
2. The answer in fact is in multiple billions
3. The human memory is excellent and runs so smoothly that most people don’t even realize that all the words they speak and those they listen to are instantaneously produced for consideration.
4. There is various way to verify this memory is perfect theory.

Dreams

1. Many of us have vivid dreams of acquaintances, friends and family we have not perhaps thought in 20 years or more.
2. In our dreams, however, the images are perfectly clear, all colors and details being exactly as they are in real life.
3. This confirms that in our brain there is a vast store of perfect images and associations that does not change with time, with the right trigger can be recalled

The Russian “S” (Shereshevsky)

1. In the early part of this century, a young Shereshevsky “S” Russian journalist who able to reproduce every words in a conference.
2. He was tested and examined by Alexandre Luria and found he had stumbled upon 12 basic mnemonic (memory-enhancing) techniques.

Rosensweig’s experiments

1. Californian psychologist and neurophysiologist. Prof Mark Rosensweig spent years studying the individual brain cell and its capacity for storages.
2. He emphasized that memory problems have nothing to do with capacity of our brains, but rather, with the self-management of its apparently limitless capacity.

Penfield’s experiments

1. In Canada, Prof Wilder Penfield discovered the capacity of human memory by mistake.
2. He was simulating individual brain cells with tiny electrodes for the purpose of locating areas of the brain that were the cause of patients’ epilepsy.
3. To his amazement his patients were suddenly recalling experiences of the past.
4. Penfield suggest that hidden within each brain cell or cluster of brain cell, is a perfect store of every event of our past and if we could find the right stimulus, we could reply to the entire film.

In summary, we want to understand how we can have better memory.
