Welcome back! It's good to see you again. Please note that I am now publishing all new material at my hub site: In Context Blog

I just found a super post at Litemind about improving your memory through the technique of the Memory Palace.

Like most memory enhancement systems, the Memory Palace technique works with the use of visual associations. The process is simple: you take a known image — called the memory peg — and combine with the element you want to memorize.

For us, the memory pegs are the distinctive features of our Memory Palace.

Read the whole thing, the instructions and tips are clear and concise. I am going to dig into this!

   Hi Stephen,
   I am really glad you enjoyed the article!

   If you indeed explore the technique further, would you please report back your experiences? I love the Memory Palace and am very much interested on other users’ impressions.

   For me visual associations doesn’t work, I can’t link a image of an object to something totally unrelated.
