Nexus method reinvents how students retain knowledge!

    Share on

We’ve all experienced lethomanthia that frustrating moment when a fascinating fact slips away before you can even recall it. In a world of endless information, this forgetfulness feels all too common. Enter the Nexus Method, a mind-powered technique championed by polymath Iain McGilchrist to turn abstract knowledge into tangible, recallable insights.

Here’s how it works in four dynamic steps : 

  1. Choose Your Themes: Begin by defining a handful of central topics McGilchrist used 70, but you can start with fewer.

  2. Externalize Updates: Write each theme on its own card, then fill these with ideas, insights, and notes collected from your readings or lectures.

  3. Cluster and Arrange: Lay out the cards and associated ideas on a surface. Move them around—closer ones may reveal emerging links and subtle patterns.

  4. Spot the Connections: Viewing the entire layout, you’ll see threads forming across themes identifying bridges, redundancies, and unique standouts

By anchoring ideas visually and spatially, the Nexus Method taps into your natural pattern-seeking mind. It transforms passive learning into active synthesis making it easier to remember, reflect, and creatively apply what you've absorbed.
