Types Of Memory
- Declarative (or Semantic) memory is our factual memory which stores the details like the information and figures, but not the visual, emotional or sensory details.
- Episodic Memory stores our life events, for us to be able to relive our past, complete with all the atmospheric details.
- Procedural Memory is the memory of skills, in which the brain records the sensory input from the various body parts and muscles during a particular activity, and is able to replicate the muscle application and movement.

The Mind At Work
- During the day, all our senses are busy collecting information, which includes sights, smells and sounds.
- When we sleep, the new memory traces are consolidated and ‘de-fragmented’ into a permanent form of long-term storage, combining the recent experience with existing semantic memory networks.
- This also proves that when we sleep after learning something, we tend to remember it better as it gets processed and digested inside our minds.
