Daily Health Gyan:memory

Not remembering stuff? Am reading a book on Thinking and Knowling (by Grange, edited by Bridget Giles) which says that memory depends a lot on how much emotion gets invested in the processing of the information. U remember what you connect with. Also,that since information that gets lodged depends on what the mind already has, if you keep adding stuff, you keep remembering more... hee hee, that tip is enough to put off people but actually that means is that if you already know the map of the world, it becomes easier to remember where europe is. If you knew where europe is, it becomes easier to remember where England is. If you knew where England is, then it becomes easier to remember where London is... Memory is both a top-down and bottom up process, it is a live thing and depends on what you feed it with:) Savvy??!!
