Memory is the process of registering, consolidating, storing, and recalling information and also is the result of that process. Memory is an electrochemical process of the brain and nervous system in which specialized brain centers receive, consolidate, store, and respond to new information. The more memory traces you amass from sensory experiences, thoughts, feelings, and actions, the more ways you have to recall a particular piece of information. A stimulating environment makes a major contribution to improving your memory. People learn incidentally in the process of living and intentionally through deliberate study.
New information becomes a memory by moving from sensory memory to short-term memory.
There working memory creates the connections to consolidate it into long-term memory. Procedures do not require conscious attention in order to function. Mental imaging is to visualize in your mind an image of something or someone you want to remember. Words can be used to help you remember in a number of ways. Talking to yourself creates verbal memory traces.
