Can’t remember what you INSTANT WAYS TO BOOST YOUR MEMORY

FORGOT?Memory problems are commonly thought

of as a problem relating to older age. The somewhat depressing news

published in the British Medical Journal in 2012 however revealed cognitive decline starts in our forties and fifties, indicating it’s never too early to be putting in place ways to help preserve cognitive function.

Boosting memory begins by addressing the fundamentals of how memory is formed. It starts with what your brain has deemed worthy of your focus and then applying your full and undivided attention to encode the information. Much of what we think we forgot is less of a failure of memory and more of an encoding problem. In our multitasking environment, frequent task switching quickly exhausts the brain and reduces our ability to create new memory.

Sufficient sleep is the second crucial component. To learn anything well, after studying a subject, getting eight hours sleep will ensure the learning is consolidated into long-term memory that also facilitates easy recall.

Chronic sleep deprivation increases daytime sleepiness, reduces attention and our speed of processing information. Worse still it increases the risk of the formation of false memories where your imagination creates its own version of reality.

Long days, poor sleep and insufficient leisure time reduce performance in the workplace, which is why taking two to three fifteen-minute brain and technology breaks across the day helps to restore energy, improve sleep patterns and leads to better thinking.

Mental performance is enhanced by daily aerobic exercise that increases cerebral blood flow, elevates mood, and reduces stress. A study from the University of British Columbia showed how regular aerobic exercise leads to an increase in the size of the hippocampus, the area of the brain involved in verbal memory and learning. Exercise has also been linked to a greater release of brain derived neurotrophic factor or BDNF, that boosts focus, memory and mental sharpness.

Enhanced working memory can be achieved through meditation practice; the additional bonus here being it also leads to structural changes in the brain associated with increased gray matter volume, along with improved psychological wellbeing and emotional regulation.

Enhancing memory can be as simple as remembering to pay better attention, sleep, move and meditate.

Serves 4 : Cooking Time: 1 hour 40 minutes

INGREDIENTS5 garlic cloves, unpeeled1 brown onion, roughly chopped1.5 litres chicken stock 200g broccoli, roughly chopped2 celery stalks, roughly chopped300g peas150g spinach¼ loaf sourdough bread1½ tablespoons olive oil, plus

extra for drizzlingparmesan cheese, to servesea salt and cracked black pepper,

to season

METHODPreheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a baking tray with a drizzle of olive oil.

Place the unpeeled garlic and onion on the baking tray. Place the tray in the oven and bake until garlic and onion are roasted (garlic will be soft when ready). Remove from the oven and leave to cool slightly. Peel the garlic.

Put the chicken stock in a large pot and place over medium heat. Add the broccoli, celery, peas and spinach to the pot. Add the onion and garlic. Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cover.

Cook for 30 minutes with the lid on, then remove the lid and cook for a further 30 minutes. Season with sea salt and cracked black pepper, then remove from the heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, remove the crusts from the bread, tear into bite-sized chunks and add to a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to ensure the bread is coated, then season with a little sea salt.

Heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium heat. When hot, add the bread, ensuring it is spread out evenly with no pieces on top of the other (do it in two batches if you pan is too small). Fry the bread until it is crunchy and brown on the bottom. When the bread is done on one side, turn each piece individually with a pair of tongs and cook again until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside in a bowl.

Using a blender, add the soup and purée in small batches until smooth.When you are ready to serve the soup, heat it in a pot over low heat.To serve, add soup to each bowl, top with the bread croutons, cracked black pepper and grated

parmesan cheese.
