I’m a firm believer that the best ways to learn things require methods that reflect the expansive reality of your brain.

How you learn things is kind of like how you plant a tree. If you plant a tree in a small pot, it obviously cannot grow much, but if you plant a tree in a spacious forest, it can grow strong, tall, and form a complex root system full of life-giving connections.

I’ve found that one of the most powerful learning tools that reflects the expansive nature of the mind is The Memory Palace.

In this ultimate guide, I’m going to break down the Memory Palace for you in great detail. I’ll explain why it works and how you can use it to develop a ridiculously powerful memory, so you can invigorate your life.

What Is A Memory Palace?

The Memory Palace originated in ancient Greece, and it’s sometimes referred to as the “Method of Loci”. The word “Loci” means “place” in Latin because historically people had a place to store knowledge inside of their head. The mental places they created served as vast palaces of memory where libraries of information could be stored and accessed on demand.
