Physical activity can improve your memory. For example, with stretching and exercise, you're getting more blood flow and oxygen to the brain. Physical activity is warding off stress, it's warding off anxiety. You feel better because the body has more vitality coming through it, and it can actually sharpen your memory. A very important point: doing these exercises every day or three or four times a week can improve your memory and ward off a decline in memory. Keep it moving - exercise your mind like you exercise a muscle and you'll feel great about yourself.
