Memory. Some of us claim to have poor ones, while others seem to remember everything. But is a strong memory really something innate? Or something we can work at?
Despite what many of us think, studies suggest the latter.
What’s more, there are proven ways to improve your memory skills and one of the most effective is by using a technique known as creating a “memory palace.”
The concept works as follows: When trying to remember, say, a shopping list, you need to visualise each item vividly in a place you know well, such as your living room.
So, if you need to buy eggs, you might imagine a hen laying eggs on your coffee table. Or if you’re out of orange juice, you might picture it splattered up the wall.
