6. Follow Your Nose
Use odors to form a specific association with a place. Prepare five scent canisters labeled 1 to 5 (see Making a Scent Canister ). At some specific point in your commuteâwhen you pass a certain building, exit, or landmarkâopen and smell canister #1 for a few seconds to give the place an olfactory âtag.â Having created an association between a specific odor and a place, the presence of either the odor or the place will thereafter activate that association. For example, the smell of cloves may call up a mental image or verbal reference of the âbig red houseâ you tagged.
On another day, use another scent canister to âtagâ a different place on your route, and so on.
You can do this same exercise while strolling around your neighborhood or walking to work.
This exercise creates an olfactory âroute mapâ in your brain, linking the brain areas that help you navigate with the cortical regions that interpret odors. Marrying olfactory associations to places, people, events, or things is also a powerful way to enhance memory.
