Memory Strategy: Chaining (Using Imagery to Remember Word Lists) 

If you use lists in your day-to-day life (such as grocery lists or to-do lists), you may sometimes struggle to remember all the items on them. The chaining memory strategy (also known as linking) is a fun and efficient way to memorize lists.
Chaining involves your imagery and visualization skills by having you create mental images that connect items on the list. For example, for a grocery list consisting of milk, tissues, hot dogs, and mustard, we will create an image connecting milk and tissues (a glass of milk wiping its tears with a tissue), tissues and hot dogs (a child eating a hot dog with tissues as buns), and hot dogs and mustard (a hot dog putting mustard on like sunscreen). Try to use unique and vivid visualizations to make the connection memorable!
Remember, practice makes perfect, so if you don't always get the list, don't be discouraged! Keep practicing and you will work to improve your memory and visualization skills.
