#40 Aphasia, Memory & Cognition

Episode #40 Aphasia, Discussing Memory and Cognition "Memory can build off working memory, but memory has to be encoded. It has to be practiced, it has to be related to something." - Genevieve Richardson   DESCRIPTION Working memory is your mental chalkboard. A person can hold seven pieces of information, give or take two, at a time in your working memory. It must be practiced to store it in your memory.    HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS EPISODE APHASIA WORKING MEMORY MEMORY EXECUTIVE FUNCTION THOUGHTS TO WORDS "PRACTICING" A THOUGHT   Grab a copy of our eBook Top Tips for Aphasia Communication + Self-Care   For more content from this episode, including a Reader's Guide and Excerpts, subscribe to the Listen for LIFE Podcast Series HERE ☀️  LIVE SHOW ALERT  ☀️ The LIFE Speech Pathology SHOW THURSDAYS 11:00 AM CENTRAL Interact with the Host and Guests each Week View LIVE or Catch the Recording ON   👉🏻   LIFE Speech Pathology Facebook Page or 👉🏻  Listen For LIFE Podcast on Youtube!   For subscribers of the Listen for LIFE Podcast series, you will receive exclusive content from the live show when it posts to the podcast the following week.  Content includes a PDF summary of the episode with key takeaways and any materials such as ebooks, workbooks, or guides from the show.   Not sure if you subscribed to the podcast series or want to subscribe now?  Follow this link 🔗  SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST SERIES  🔗 ___________________ 📆  FREE CONSULTATION  📆 Do you or your loved one have aphasia and want to know if you can do more with communication?
