Thanks for the podcast Jim. Three Rs resonated with me.
1) Read (Read with the Finger).
2) Reform (Change the Voice) and
3) Relax (Get into the Alpha state).

Thank you so much Kwik for the valuable information😊, I am not an actress but I will for sure use these tips to enhance my learning process, highly appreciated. And guess what, Barouque music is my top favorate😊

[ThisIsJessPaul]

My favorite tip was about novelty. I'm going to apply that a lot more, different voices or accents. I think that might trip the novelty of being in a new space when you go on set vs. practicing in your bedroom. We'll see...

[jenvallance]

I am an actress and will try the use of smell on my next scene to learn for an audition. Thank you!

[englishfun]

Thanks, looking forward to your new lessons...

[aanantharajaram]

Thanks Jim
I think the writing information/dialogues down works for me.
But the associating info with different smells ; wow, sounds like a game changer

[kyan]

I tried listening to myself before sleeping and then I felt asleep with AirPods on😂I am totally tragic

[bernadettefern]

“Brain lovers”, “when you teach, you learn twice”-wonderful tidbits

[victormalik]

the time immediately after i wrote the exam i used to feel sometimes that it is dream and iam walking in it it might be due to theta state

[exkinky]

How would you apply this to learning a dance?

[GamingWithMasrurElahi]

Believe me or not every single memory course is at least 50% copy of mega memory course. I have done mega memory course. It is free. So many courses are copy of mega memory.
