I know this has happened to you, someone else just shook their phone number and the only thing I can remember is the first 3 digits. Have you ever heard the music and lyrics, then you can not remember what you just heard? Or maybe someone told him his address and as soon as I heard that you forgot? The question has to ask is, Does this happen to you often? Then you may want to engage in some auditory memory exercises to help keep your brain sharp. The more you practice auditory memory exercises, the better you get and soon you will not have to write something down. Hear something once and it will be ingrained in your short-term memory for a longer period of time you are normally accustomed. This is ideal for phone numbers, addresses, directions, shopping lists and more.
Top Ten Account
A good auditory memory exercise is to listen to a top ten countdown on your favorite radio station. Do not write any songs, but by trying to remember the titles of each, since they play. Then, finally, try to write in the order that you heard. As you improve, you should be able to write the artist and song title without having to try very hard. The best part about this type of auditory memory exercise is that the radio stations that play these types of countdowns often have contests to see who can remember the list of the best. You could earn some money while also helping to enhance their ability to short-term memory.
Exercise Partner
Another type of auditory memory exercise involves using a partner. Having a partner to recite something as an address, a shopping list, or any other thing you have to remember. Then try again and recite what you hear word for word. As you practice, you better soon and can recite what you hear without having to request a password. As with anything, the more practice the better you to try this one as often as you can if you really want to improve your memory skills in the short term.
If you do not have a partner, you can do with a recording. Play a recording of a song, a comedy routine, or anything else, and then try to write what they heard. As you improve, you will be able to write all the details without having to go back and check.
Auditory memory exercises can be done anytime, anywhere, and are a great idea for anyone who wants to keep the information a little longer than the few milliseconds after it has heard.
