Mental exercise is thought to activate processes that help maintain brain cells and stimulate communication between them. This might be accomplished by pursuing a hobby. For people with minimal memory problems, memory training programs and devices may be beneficial. Making lists can assist with remembering tasks or information. Doing crossword puzzles regularly helps many people rehearse the skill of knowledge and information retrieval from the long-term memory. Adequate rest, such as taking a nap, helps those with cognitive impairment.
