Show Notes
Nelson Dellis is a highly accomplished memory champion, author, YouTuber and all around great guy.
But please get ready to dive deep into new territory, a topic I never expected to address.
That’s because I never saw Nelson’s interest in the world of remote viewing and other psychic phenomena coming.
Yet here we are discussing experiences that have Nelson thinking that the definition of memory needs to be changed.
These are heady ideas for which there are no easy answers. But I’m confident you’ll enjoy the ideas we unpack in this episode of the Magnetic Memory Method Podcast.
Here’s what you’ll discover as we search for a logical explanation to some of Nelson’s recent experiences with remote viewing and ponder the possibility that the citizens of the world might be witnessing a cognitive revolution as we speak.
- Nelson’s history of debunking claims of skills that resemble photographic memory
- The story that led to Nelson running experiments in remote viewing
- The relationship between psychic phenomenon, Houdini and magic tricks
- Why philosophy is so important when trying to understand paranormal claims (and why linear thinking might have its limits)
- Nelson’s academic background in math and physics
- Keeping memory sharp as we age after the time for extreme efforts in memory improvement has passed
