Rosemary

I have been having a hard time to memorize scientific terms. I asked my friends how they studied for exams when they were at school. I expected there were some tips I didn't know and I should try it if there are something worth to try. To know the useful strategy is important for exam preparations.

But I thought it was also important to think about my physical body, and I should work on my memorizing ability physically. I can't ignore that I am aging day by day... XD


So I researched on some websites, and found that a rosemary is the best herb for improving memory.

So I picked some rosemary branches in my garden, packed a small basket with the fresh rosemary branches, and placed it on my desk. So I can always smell it when I am at my desk.



I haven't tried a rosemary tea but I will try. Somebody said rosemary would taste better when mint and lemon are added to it. It sounds good.


Also, breakfast is important for memory, because the brain needs glucose to memorise, but glucose can not be kept longer than half a day. So we need to eat something in the morning to wake up our brain.

The starch is converted to glucose, so I guess grains are the best to eat to fill my purpose.



Normally I don't feel like eating breakfast. My stomach doesn't accept food in the early morning, and if I have a breakfast I feel sick soon after eating.

But improving my memory is necessary. So I started having only a tiny bit of rice or oats every morning. ...Since it is a tiny tiny bit of grains, my stomach seems to be all right. :D

Although I don't realise the effects of the breakfast yet, I feel I can focus on my study much better with the aroma of rosemary.

Cheers for my lovely rosemaries!

良い事を聞きました!!ローズマリーならジャングル化している我が家の玄関にありますわ!
さっそく摘んできました。
ダイニングテーブルのど真ん中にど〜〜んとね!
最近長男が「勉強しないとな〜」って解ってきたらしいの(笑)
とりあえず今のところ追試は無いんだけど、中学と高校との違いが痛感しているみたい。毎回テストだもんね。だから勉強をたくさんしはじめたのよ。ダイニングテーブルでだけどね〜。
我が家の夜は静かです。テレビつけないもん(苦笑)。ラジオがお友達の日々です。
私は長男の正面に座って本を読んだり日記を書いたり・・・つい忘れてる漢字を教えて貰っては「やばいなぁ・・」です。

朝食は私もあまり食べられないの・・・でも、脳の為に糖分を!って思って果物だけは食べてるよ。

ジャスままさん。

ジャスままさんちのローズマリージャングルが我が家にも欲しいです。
家には二本あるのだけど、どちらも小さめ。しかも、そのうちの1本はいまいち香りが良くないのです。アロマ効果で記憶力活性化を狙っているので、香りが良くないとね。ローズマリーのエッセンシャルオイルも買ってこようかしら。

長男君、自覚が出てきたようで良かったですね。私も負けずに頑張らねば。今、最後のメインレッスンを目前にして、自分の試験勉強に手がつけられなくてフラストレーションたまり気味。開き直って、一切勉強なしにして仕事にのめりこむか!?

そうね。脳のために糖分を!
果物だと直接糖分を取り入れられるから即効性あるのよね。
