'If you are a student then you are really going to find the techniques that are included in this book are weapons in your arsenal of keeping all that information in your head. You would probably have to buy MANY books to be able to find all the information that you would find here in just one easy-to-read volume.

Research has shown that buy remembering creatively not only will you be able to remember AND recall more with less effort, with more fun and interest, but you will ALSO start to THINK more creatively and be able to connect information in such ways that you can answer questions more fluidly.

But memories shouldn't just be used for remembering facts, you can also achieve amazing stunts with very little effort! How? Read on ....

One of the most important parts of stage magic is to convince the audience that you have gifts and talents beyond that which are naturally available to the average human. And even though most of the time they know there must be some trick to it, jaw dropping power will have them eating out of your hand.

A stage mentalist often relies on tricks, plants and words, though the amazing Derren Brown has blown the lid off of psychological mind bending principles. What is revealed on every page of this book adds to this new tradition of pure skill, which cannot be faked or duplicated, and yet is so simple it is a joy to both show and learn.

After just five minutes of reading the first few pages of this book you will have the skills to memorise and recall a list of 10 items forwards, backwards, or at random, and with very little practice be able to do so in under 20 seconds. But that's not all, you will soon be able to move on to memorise

100's and then 1000's of pieces of information whether it be the patter to a new trick, complex moves or the order of the tricks to your stage performance and no longer have to refer to written notes. Perhaps even the memorization of a deck of cards. Or even more! You can even develop this to card counting ... - the bain of every casino.

Look at what you will be able to do

• Read a book JUST ONCE and be able to recall the text months, even years later
• Study and learn quicker
• Remember important key dates
• Memorise a deck of cards - and learn ideas for magic tricks using this knowledge
• Memorise incredibly long strings of numbers
• Remember complex directions given to you by complete strangers

Once you have become familiar with all of these techniques you will be able to choose the most appropriate for the job in hand and amaze those watching. Even in the smallest of gatherings the I have had people beg me to tell them the secrets.

This is not a heavy academic book! It is printed so that you will be able to take your time over it, at your own pace. Yet you can read it in one evening.

Similar materials take a long and unnecessary time to explain what are very simple and ancient principles - don't be fooled by adverts on the web that claim that they are new!

This book crams 8 different techniques, including additional information on study skills, and suggestions for your power memory to start working, and how to use a unique and never before revealed technique of virtual mindmapping* - which I personally use for memorising huge amounts of information without ever lifting a pen!

I have personally trained so many people in how to use their powerful memory that I am convinced that everyone has genius locked away inside - and this book is as a direct result of years of people asking me to write it down for them.

From 8 year olds to the elderly - I take the greatest pleasure teaching people with dyslexia and demonstrating that they have the most powerful memories of all.

You will be amazed at just how powerful your mind really is!

This last section is crucial and often overlooked in memory books - but in fact it is very important when retaining information for long term memory and an understanding of the principles involved are important.

Even if you are familiar with one or two of these techniques already, I almost guarantee that you will not have come across virtual mindmapping before, anywhere. It uses every single one of the techniques to produce a rich learning and remembering environment.

Sample

Welcome!

In just a few moments you will be using your memory to remember a list of 10 items.

And that's just the start!

We all use our memories all the while, some more than others. If you are a magician or even a student reading this then you probably need to remember an immense amount of information; but most people need to remember shopping lists. But just maybe you are more interested in winning the local pubquiz, or beating the pub quiz machine into submission so that it makes some serious payouts ... or perhaps you want to be the next winner of 'who wants to be a millionaire?' Or amaze people with your superhuman abilities. Then again, you might have recently taken part in a national memory 'battle of the sexes' game on tv and realised that you weren't quite as sharp as you were. Not only that, but it has been shown that for those who are elderly, daily mind gymnastics which include the sortt of thing memory requires, keep senility and Alzheimer syndrome at bay. Whatever your reasons, learning to learn is fun, productive and anyone can do it!

Even if you have dyslexia!

If you have dyslexia, or know someone who does, creating a dynamic way of memorizing information is very useful.

In fact I have found that for people with dyslexia they have an advantage over most people - its true!

They have a very powerful VISUAL memory, which is often untapped. They are led to believe that they have a very poor memory. The reason for this is that they are told to learn things from a printed page whilst at school, and much of their energy goes into trying to decipher the text. However, deciphering the text is only one small part of learning. And so in this course you will learn techniques which can be taught to anyone with what some people call learning difficulties, and they will be astounded at the power in their own mind! In just 5 minutes I have taught people who are dyslexic the basic memory system for 10 items and proved once and for all that they are just as clever as everyone else. And the result is such a boost in confidence they go on to much greater things.

How do I know?

Because I have the numerical form of dyslexia, dyscalculia. I thought I was stupid - I learnt that I just had never been taught how to remember visually!

Your amazing brain!

Your brain controls every aspect of your being - it processes all those senses that you have. An eye, for example, receives light but without the brain to process the information it will do you no good at all.

You have subconscious processes that go on without you knowing about it, for example breathing. Could you imagine getting up first thing in the morning and needing to remind yourself to breath?
And you have conscious processes, like walking and talking, and thinking!

Memory falls into a strange place because some of it is subconscious, and some of it is conscious.

FACT: did you now that that the brain is made up of chemical and electrical signals which are transmitted and received by something called Neurons?
There are more Neurological connectors in the brain than people living on earth!
