Practice each palace with 5 items locations in each room.

For example;  
If the palace is your home, choose your route first.  
let’s say it’s;  
Bedroom-Bathroom-Kitchen-TV-Room.

Bedroom: 1-2-3-4-5 (create a mini-story)  
Bathroom: 6-7-8-9-10 (create a mini-story)  
Kitchen: 11-12-13-14-15 (create a mini-story)  
TV-Room: 16-17-18-19-20 (create a mini-story)

- Start with the bedroom first.
- Choose 5 items in the room, going clockwise, or anticlockwise whichever easier for you.
- Count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 **pointing your finger at each item** at its location.
- Go to the next room, and choose the next 5 items/locations, count 6,7,8,9,10
- Repeat this with all the rooms. So if you had 4 rooms and had 5 stops each, then your last count would equal to 20.
- To memorise all 5 items locations in each room, use the Link method and create a mini-story in each room.
- Practice until all items are in your memory for each room for your Home Palace.
- Repeat for all other palaces.

When I say 5 items in each room, you can of course use more items. I used to use 10 items, but now I use 5, it seems to be easier. However I have a place I use that has 15 items in each room.
