Do you ever lose things sometimes?

 

The Loci technique can be applied in 4 simple steps to develop yourself toward always remembering where you've put something.

 

This method stems from the Greek poet Simonides of Ceos.

 

Step 1 Choose location

 

Start by selecting a room in your house that you know very well.

 

The room should be one you use to study, perform your work or place your work tools.

 

Step 2 Visualise location

 

Assign the materials to specific locations within the room.

 

Add logic, imagine yourself working and taking the objects to see if their can be a more logical place to put it.

 

Step 3 Mental image visualisation

 

Take a mental snapshot.

 

When you place all the materials, remember vividly all the colors, textures, and shapes in the location. 

 

 

Step 4 Mental Walk

 

Mentally walk through the room while meditating and carefully remember all colors, textures, and shapes.
