Several techniques were considered in preparation to memorize the book of Ephesians. Joshua Foer, in his book ‘Moonwalking with Einstein,’ recommends a Memory Palace strategy involving the creation of an imaginary palace filled with rooms containing visuals used to anchor specific parts of a passage. As part of Foer’s recommended technique, one travels a set route within an imaginary palace encountering intentionally bizarre visuals used to prompt recall of memorized sections. This journey allows the technique user to recall long passages one short section (or imaginary room) at a time.
The primary reason this technique was not chosen to memorize the book of Ephesians was the desire not to have the bizarre visuals be the focus anchors. Instead, the color coding recommendation by Foer was chosen to be the memorization technique of choice.
