Magnetic Memory Method – How to Memorize With A Memory Palace

Mindfulness expert Michael Taft had long know about the Memory Palace technique.

Who is Michael Taft?

Michael Taft is a highly-regarded mindfulness teacher, author and thought leader working at the intersection of contemplative practices and neuroscience.

With decades of experience, he is a voice many look to for deeper results from their meditation practice.

As Michael shares with us in this episode, his commitment to mindfulness goes back decades.

He’s studied and collaborated with some of the most accomplished professionals in the field, paying forward the absolute best techniques for establishing clarity, calm and more concentration in your life.

His groundbreaking book, The Mindful Geek struck a chord with me personally. As a mostly skeptical person, his demystification of various “woo-woo” ideas helped me be more open to exploring why they may have evolved. And why they might be useful to engage with even if I’m skeptical.

When you listen to the Deconstructing Yourself podcast, you’ll find Michael’s style is warm, but also characterized by a no-nonsense approach.

I hope to one day attend one of his mindfulness retreats and suggest you connect with him for news of upcoming opportunities.

And above all, I hope his experience encourages you to discover and implement the missing ingredient.

It has a name in the memory science, which is spaced repetition. Just make sure to add ye olde “Magnetic” twist!
