The Pelman System of Mind and Memory Training - Lessons I to XII. Anon

hop on the left foot, and this time, instead of sending the stiff right leg in front of you, raise your right knee, with the toes as far away from you and as far down as you can. Hop a few times with the knee held in this position.

      Then hop on the right foot, and send up the left knee similarly.

      Then hop on the left foot, and send up the right knee, and draw the right knee up towards your chest with your hands. Then hop on the right foot and draw the left knee up to your chest with your hands.

      During the hopping it is most important to keep your chin in, and the small of your back hollow, and—except of course when the hands are gripping the knee—to keep your shoulders back and down. Do not let the head poke forwards; do not let the shoulders be rounded.

      Now comes a very hard practice. Stand with your feet about six inches apart, as before, close your eyes for a moment, and imagine the action of skipping. Imagine yourself to be skipping, but do not move. Recall both the movements and the muscular sensations.

       Pelman Lesson III.

      As the range of one’s knowledge and memory depends primarily on the range of one’s sensations and perceptions, your attention is specially directed to Lesson III, where we show how you may become a keen observer.
