Ever heard of the mind-body connection? Turns out, it might be the key to improving your studying. Here’s how your 5 senses are associated with memory: ?? (Smell) Scents can unconsciously trigger memories and emotions that are connected with a certain smell. Try studying with a calming essential oil like lavender for stress relief and to aid information recall on test day. ?? (Taste) Taste triggers retrieval cues through our hippocampus that are strongly associated with a time and place. Chewing an unfamiliar gum flavor while studying somewhere comfortable and then again on test day, can ease your nerves by forcing your body to recall a more familiar environment. ?? (Sound) Listening to music while studying improves your mood, triggering the release of dopamine and promoting the feelings of happiness and relaxation. Studying with background music has an uplifting affect that will help you better manage feelings of test-day anxiety. ? (Touch) Small repetitive physical activities, also known as fidgeting, can increase our ability to focus. Sensory gadgets such as a stress ball or clay can improve your ability to concentrate while studying. ?? (Sight) Nearly all of the information transmitted to the brain is visual and lives in our visual memory. To keep your information retrival sharp, take short regular breaks from screens throughout your studying. Read more on our blog!
