But this book is also....
The ideal for any stage mentalist or magician
by establishing credibility of amazing skills with an
easy-to-follow instructional book on using the
amazing power of your memory.
The ancient Greeks would have power memory contests
- they would speak for hours. The stories would be learned
word for word ...
Join the power mnemonists!
The author, Andrew Stuart Gray writes ...
'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 by 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 memory 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 memorize
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 memorize 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 bane
of every casino.
Look at what you will be able to
do:
- Study and learn quicker
- Read a book JUST ONCE and be able to recall the
text months, even years later
- Remember important key dates
- Memorise incredibly long strings of numbers
- Memorise a deck of cards - and learn ideas for magic
tricks using this knowledge
- 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, 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 memorizing 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!
Included in this book are:
Welcome and introduction
Systems 1-8
Virtual Mindmap®*
SUGGESTED USES FOR YOUR MEMORY
Lets start easy ...
What about directions?
Telephone numbers
Dates of history
Card memorization techniques
Tips on foreign languages
Beginning to think like a genius!
Studying
Timings - and how to review effectively.
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.
