To help remember something, write it on the roof of your mouth with your tongue. My mother had me do this when I had to memorize states and capitols in fifth grade. I aced the test.
That sounds like it would take a ton of time haha. Is it more for a one off kind of thing?
Yeah, I suppose so. I only did it once in each instance. The act of thinking about it in such a way (involving motor coordination) did something to help embed the information. Sort of like how the act of writing is apparently more useful for memory than typing (something I have read but not verified).
What fo you think about memory palaces?
Well, today I learned the roof of my mouth is ticklish. I can’t even get through one letter!
