There is a new strategy that was discovered to
improve mood for the ”depress”, it is easier
and costs nothing. This is easy just the
recollection of positive day-to-day
experiences. This can work for those who are
not suffering from depression as well. I’m sure
this will change anyone’s mood.

4.  Researchers suggest that recalling actual,
detailed memories that are positive or self-
affirming can help to improve the mood of
people with a history of depression.

 Sad to say, for people who suffer from
depression, this kind of vivid memory for
everyday events seems crippled by the victims.

5.  In the new study, Tim Dalgleish, Ph.D., of the
Medical Research Council Cognition and Brain
Sciences Unit and colleagues hypothesized that
a well-known method used to enhance
memory — known as the “method-of-loci”
strategy — might help depressed patients to
recall positive memories with greater ease.


6.  The method-of-loci strategy consists of
connecting vivid memories with physical
objects or locations. An example of which are
buildings you see on your commute to work
every day. To bring to mindall the memories,
you just have to imagine going through your
commute.

7.  An article published in Clinical Psychological
Science the study is further discussed. In the
study, depressed patients were asked to come
up with 15 positive memories.

 The method-of-loci strategy was used by one
group to create associations with their
memories and the other group was asked to
use a simple “rehearsal” strategy, grouping
memories based on their similarities.

8.  The participants were asked to recollect as
many of their 15 positive memories as they
could after working on the techniques.

 Both groups were able to recall nearly all of the
15 memories. Although the method were
equally effective after the initial memory test
conducted in the lab, the strategies were not
equally effective in the long run.

9.  A surprise call was made by the researchers
after a week when they are already at their
own homes. They then asked them to recall the
15 memories once again and the group who
used the method-of-loci passed with flying
colors while those who used the rehearsal
technique did not do the same as the other
group.

10. 
This made a conclusion and the researchers
believe these findings suggest that using the
method-of-loci technique to associate vivid,
positive memories with physical objects or
locations may make it easier for depressed
individuals to recall those positive memories.

11.  Recalling and focusing on positive memories,
rather than negative projections, may help
individuals elevate their mood in the long
run. And also for all of us this may help
brighten each day so you may have a great day
ahead!
