Do you have trouble remembering people’s names? This is one of the most common memory complaints, according to psychiatry professor Gary W. Small, MD. Here are a couple of tips to help: 1) The brain is hardwired to associate names with images. Look for physical details to connect the name with an image (Jennifer is wearing fur, Tim is tall). Or picture the new person together with a friend or a celebrity with a similar name. 2) Rehashing information helps your brain store it in your memory. Try using the person’s name repeatedly in the conversation.
