In the process of remembering, the brain plays a big role. The brain can be divided over the left brain and right brain. Left brain functions associated with logic, numbers, writing, intelligence, count, analyze, and for short-term memory (short term memory). While we user right brain for creativity, imagination, music, colors, shapes, emotions, and for long-term memory (long term memory).



Memories will be more durable if the recall using the right brain. In order to remember it well, need to train the brain to function optimally. Unfortunately, more people are using left brain in the process of remembering. The left brain is more developed that most people without a balanced development of right brain. Because the left brain is short-term memory, then the information stored in the left brain will be more easily forgotten.

Therefore, if you want to save in the right brain, the information must be changed into a story or picture. Since the right brain does not know the characters or numbers. Exercise is necessary in order to develop the right brain. There were several techniques that can be done.


Total Story Technique (TST)

This technique is carried out by making a short story of the things that we had memorized. For example we are going shopping at the supermarket to buy rice, shampoo, milk, gum, floor cleaner, eggs, soy, cheese, tomato sauce, a tissue. Rather than trying to memorize it, you better make the story for this stuff to Dewi Sri (the goddess of legend that describes the paddy rice) are shampooing (shampoo), while a bath of milk. While outside, the Mbok who was chewing gum with a swab (cleaning floor) have prepared an egg flavor soy sauce sprinkled with cheese and tomatoes are soft as tissue.

The story actually visualized and imagined. Develop your imagination by adding color, sound, objects and motion supporting the story. For example, imagine a pink bathing place of milk baths Dewi Sri, imagine the Mbok old and wearing a gray kebaya mopping the page, listen to the voice cud chewing gum in his mouth, and imagine that you taste the eggs that taste like ketchup, imagine an egg shape studded cheese and tomato sauce, and imagine that you can hold the egg and feel the softness of such tissue.

Make it a real shadow in front of you. With the example of this story, we have trained the right brain that functions in creativity and imagination. Creativity is created when we make a short story and imagination played a role when we visualize the story.


Total Word Technique (TWT)

In this technique the information you want to remember was changed to the abbreviations or if the information that will be remembered is the foreign words, can be converted into words that sound almost the same. This technique is often also called the bridge a donkey. After that, the newly created stories to be accepted by the right brain.

For example, when she had to memorize the eighth planet from the nearest sun. The sequence is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. If you memorize it feels hard, be changed to the phrase "Not Vespa Riding Toys, Judi Friend Urip reckless."

Sentence using some of the letters before or the first syllable of the order of the planet who wants to remember. Riding to remember Mercury, Venus Vespa for, Not for the Earth's, Toys for Mars, Judi to Jupiter, to Saturn's Companions, Urip for Uranus, Neptune desperate for. By imagining the characters and that is being done, you can better remember it.


Total Number Technique (TNT)

This technique is used to memorize the numbers. Because the right brain does not know the number or word, it needs to create stories in order to recognize the right brain. For example, you must remember the number 212,007,217,080,205. You can turn it into a story like Mr.Wiro Sableng (212) and James Bond (007), two (2) are following the ceremonies of independence (1708) on the day of national education (0205).

However, not every combination of numbers is a familiar figure as above. For that, you can make the story his own by turning it into code that can be accepted by the right brain that is in code form or sound. You can change the numbers into code form or sound like the following:
Beep Code Form Code Figures
0 Ball Megapode
1 Pole Shoes
2 The Old Duck
3 Ear Butter
4 Boat Ketupat Screen
5 Stomach Fat Pomegranate
6 Cigar Plant
7 hoes Shirt
8 Glasses Board
9 Racquet Road

Code form and the code can also be created his own sound based on your creativity. Now you have to remember passwords such as 284 670, can be converted into a sentence:
Given the Form Code
Duck (2) with glasses (8) sailboat ride (4) with his right hand holding a cigar (6) and left hand holding a hoe (7) fun playing football (0).

Given the Beep Code
The old grandfather (2) buy a board (8) and diamond (4) of the people who are planting (6) clothes (7) char (0).

Recall method described above is only a few examples of techniques that can used to remember, because there are still other methods. Considering these methods will make you also managed to keep creative in creating a short story, imagining and to imaginer.

Your imagination will be more refined as you add colors in the shadow of your story, adding movement, scent or other things so that your imagination even more attractive. If you can, make a funny story or a story that made no sense. This will help more remembered.

You can also try to teach it to children. Thus, memorization can become a fun activity for them. It will also be a good exercise for the right brain that can spur creativity and optimize your child's brain.

If you've tried to remember with these methods, the brain stores information on your right, the information will not be quickly forgotten and helps optimize brain and helps your memory. Good luck !!
