Memory palace guides

Each guide explains one way to remember something in order, and each has a short try on the page.

• Memory palace: how to build one, and a free one to try
  What a memory palace is, where it comes from, what the research says, and how to build your first one in a few minutes. Try a five-place palace on this page, free.
• The body method: a memory palace you already have
  Use ten parts of your own body, feet to head, as memory places. What it is, what a 2022 study found, and a five-place try on this page. No setup.
• How to memorize a speech: learn the points in order
  Learn the points of your speech in order on places you know, the first and last lines word for word, and practise from memory. Try five points of a toast on this page.
• How to memorize a list in order
  Put each item on a place you know, in order, and walk the places to get the list back. Five planets on your body on this page, then any list of your own.
