New York Times Bestseller: The actress shares the secrets of her rare and “awe-inspiring” skills to help you harness the life-changing power of memory (Kirkus Reviews).
Marilu Henner has an extraordinarily rare ability—she can remember every day of her life in sharp detail going back to age twelve. Eventually, university researchers told her she was one of a tiny group of people known to possess what is called Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory. In this book, she reveals how scientific data and the lessons learned from HSAM can help others achieve and benefit from improved recall.
Could the confidence you felt when your prom date said yes embolden you to ask for a raise today? Would the thrill of wearing your skinny jeans last year inspire you to skip this morning’s doughnuts? Could the details of your early days with a heartbreaking ex illuminate potential red flags in a new romance? Marilu Henner says YES. Unlike any other memory book, Total Memory Makeover provides simple exercises to help you:
•Stop turning painful memories into emotional baggage
•Discover your personal memory track
•Unlock repressed memories that are holding you back
•Recall memories faster and stop them from fading
•Turn your memories into a treasure map to an extraordinary future
“Henner forgoes typical approaches like mnemonics, place pegs and memory palaces. One test stimulates the olfactory nerves to turn up sense memories; another asks readers to revisit their 21st birthdays to uncover the different ways they archive memories. . . . Henner skillfully demonstrates how memories can help readers process their past, direct their present and shape their future. Other useful chapters address how to effectively record events in a journal and the ways parents can help their children preserve memories. Henner’s enthusiasm is infectious.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Perhaps the most valuable book on memory to be published to date.” —New York Journal of Books
