Eidetic memory, better known as 'Photographic memory', is the ability to have perfect recall of an image in your mind. What is the best course or product to learn a system which allows this degree of recall?

I have completed a system called 'Photoreading', but i would like to go one step further and actualy recall the whole specific images.

I would be grateful for any advice or insight into this. Preferably, someone who knows about the photoreading system.

Thanks

Photographic memory is exactly "real" although some people have astonishing memories. Even so, it does not exist to the extent that people claim it to be. Try improving your skills with short term memory through mnemoics or through short stories that help you form links. The depth and breath plays a large factor into information processing. This means that the more you need to use to remember information, the better the memory is stored in your brain.

For example, if you want to remember the "signals" of neurotransmitters, you should try using textbooks, reading aloud, rehearsing, and visual illustrations. If you want to learn a string of numbers, learn them in strings of "7." Have you noticed why phone numbers are in strings of 7? It's easy to remember. Repetition also increases your ability to recall information. You can't really learn how to have a photographic memory.

I hope this helps.

There is such a thing as eidetic memory, but I don't believe it can be learned. It's a gift, like a natural athlete, or perfect pitch. You can improve your memory, and have taken steps to do so-that'll have to be good enough, I'm afraid. Sorry.
