As we age, our memories begin to change. We often find ourselves becoming more forgetful, misplacing things, or taking longer to recall certain things. Though memory impairment is part of normal aging, there are a number of ways in which you can help keep your mind sharp as you get older. By adding these simple activities to your routine you can help to push off memory loss, and keep your mind as active and healthy as possible.
