Muscles that aren't exercised regularly tend to become weak. Recent research indicates that brain cells are similar to muscles in this regard. Memory and brain fitness improve with stimulating brain exercises for all important areas of the brain. Crosswords alone are not enough because they don't exercise all parts of the brain. Brain exercise needs to include activities like drawing and learning a musical instrument.

Gut memory
In sports we have muscle memory, in daily life we rely on gut memory. If a memory is internalized enough it becomes a gut memory that we can recall at the snap of our fingers without even trying. Aim for gut memory, and more importantly, trust your gut memory. Just like we have to trust our muscle memory while playing a game like tennis, we have to trust our gut memory in daily living.
