Your path

Read the method, then put it to work.

  1. Place, then retrieve

    Connect each object to a distinct stop on a familiar route.

    Lessons & practice
  2. Recall the connections

    Rebuild both the ideas and the links between them with the passage hidden.

    Lessons & practice

Come back to the same material

After learning a set, return after a delay and try to recall it before opening the source. Then check, repair a missed link, and try again. Keep an unaided answer separate from one recovered with a clue. Both Memory Palace and Recall Map save material for later reviews.

Delayed recall is a return to either of these activities, not a third practice.
