A lot of people who want to increase their memory power cannot do so until they rid themselves of three psychological barriers which put an invisible but mighty ceiling on their advancement. Here they are.
You must associate an image with a feeling in your mind.
The unconscious mind focuses your behavior on what it believes and accepts to be true. It evaluates each thought and image and supplies instruction on how to proceed and on a totally unconscious basis it creates an external reality to match these inner images and beliefs. Therefore, when you control your thoughts (how you see yourself and the world) you begin a process that shapes your “inner” images of reality and this affects your external experience.
Powerful memory systems: mnemonic processes.
The right side of the brain sees the image of the thing to remember.
The left side of brain sees the word of the thing remembered.
The Holographic Brain.
The Holographic brain theory discover by psychologist Karl Pribram in the mid 1960’s draws on the analogy of holograms to explain how memory is stored. The nature of a hologram is such that it allows you to cut out any art of it and still see the entire 3-D image. Applying this theory to the brain, if the brain operates as a holographic plate, any part of it reconstructs the whole. Therefore the function of your memory of how to speak, for example, is not relegated to one specialized functional unit in the brain, but rather represented by patterns in the brain operating like holograms to represent memory traces.
Memory appears to be diffused throughout the brain in networks of holograms.
1. Believe . . . you will remember the material. (energizes the brain to remember)
2. Intend to remember. (get genuine will power involved.)
3. Visualize or repeat the material once or more in your mind.
4. Consciously tell yourself to remember the material.
5. Review the material the next day.
