Memory Boost: 5 Ways to Sharpen Your Mind

Boost your cognitive performance with these science-backed techniques:

Memory Palaces:

  • Choose a familiar place, like your home or office
  • Create a specific route through this place
  • Place items you want to remember at specific points along the route
  • To recall, mentally walk through your "palace"

Example: Remembering a Presentation

- Front door = Opening statement

- Living room = First main point

- Kitchen = Supporting data

- Bedroom = Conclusion

Spaced Repetition:

  • Review new information at increasing intervals
  • Day 1: Review after 1 hour
  • Day 2: Review after 1 day
  • Day 4: Review after 3 days
  • Day 10: Review after 1 week

Example: Learning New Software

- Day 1: Learn basic functions, review before bed

- Day 2: Practice again

- Day 4: Quick run-through of features

- Day 10: Full practice session

Chunking:

  • Break large amounts of information into smaller, manageable groups
  • Find patterns or create categories
  • Remember the chunks instead of individual items

Physical Exercise:

  • Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week
  • Try a 10-minute walk before important meetings or brainstorming sessions • Incorporate desk exercises like chair squats or desk push-ups during breaks

Quality Sleep:

  • Stick to a consistent sleep schedule, even on weekends
  • Create a relaxing bedtime routine (e.g., reading, soft music)
  • Keep your bedroom cool, dark, and quiet
  • Try your best to avoid screens 1 hour before bed

Pro Tip: Combine these techniques with a brain-boosting diet:

  • Include omega-3 rich foods: salmon, walnuts, flaxseeds
  • Add fruits and vegetables: blueberries, spinach, sweet potatoes
  • Stay hydrated

More Info: At WellPro, we’re building a native AI platform purpose-built to scale the next era of care: personalized, preventative, and data-driven. Our thesis is simple but bold; the future of care delivery will be patient-centered, proactive, longitudinal, and closed-loop. That demands infrastructure that can ingest multi-modal health data, generate insight, drive action, and continuously optimize based on outcomes.

We believe Agentic AI is central to making this vision real. Not just chat interfaces or “co-pilots,” but deeply embedded, goal-driven AI agents that operate within the clinical system itself, helping surface insights at the point of care, automate routine tasks, and ensure closed-loop follow-through on interventions. This isn’t an AI layer on top of legacy systems. It’s a new foundation.
