The U.S. National Library of Medicine offers these suggestions to help strengthen your memory:
-Make associations between words or names. As the NLM puts it, "If Alex introduces you to Patty, you might remember them as A and P."
-Relax if you forget something, and try again to think of it or let it come to you.
-Read, do crossword puzzles and play games to keep your brain active.
-Limit how much alcohol you drink.
-When you want to remember something, repeat it out loud.
-Associate names with faces.
-Ask your doctor if any medications you take could be impairing your memory.
