The Secret to Improving Your Memory If you want to improve your memory，you need to know how your brain works.You might be surprised to hear that your lifestyle habits might be making it difficult for you to correctly record each piece of information，experience，or learning.
It would appear that the secret to improving your memory is really simple.It's to take breaks.As a matter of fact，the brain has more limited energy resources than you probably think.Therefore，it tires quickly and its levels of attention begin to drop after about 30 to 45 minutes.
The hippocampus is the area of your brain that's responsible for consolidating（鞏固）your short-term memories in the long term.Furthermore，for this consolidation to be possible，there must be an connection with different regions of the cerebral cortex（大腦皮層）.Currently，we know that，for best connectivity，we must rest.Therefore，factors such as tiredness，negative feelings，or stress make it difficult to connect one area to the other.
Michaela Dewar，a researcher at the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom，conducted a study with other experts to understand how to improve memory consolidation processes.What they found was that something as simple as taking breaks of between nine and 15 minutes improves memory，both in healthy people and in those with neurological damage.
However，there's one small detail that's important.The rest must be real rest.In other words，you should go to a quiet space and not have any distractions（分心的事） around you.This includes not having your cell phone nearby.The secret to improving your memory requires you to rest for between ten and 15 minutes leaving your mind completely empty.In fact，knowing how to rest is decisive for your cognitive function，balancing your emotions，and renewing your energy.
Your lifestyle plays an extremely important role in the way your memory functions.Rest isn't wasting time.In fact，allowing yourself small breaks is investing in your health and well-being.
