Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ Beyond Human remembering a face

do you guys ever try to remember what a person you've seen many times looks like, only to fail? perhaps you can remember everything but they're face. i run into this a lot. i try, relaxed, to remember a person's face and cant picture it, yet if i try a great number of other people at that same time they come in with no problem

what have you tried to reduce this "blockage" [perhaps] that has worked? i'd really like to be able to imagine anyone i want, and anything [as i child i couldnt make a baseball hit a bat without the ball fouling, but i have gotten better at that]

everything's appreciated

Hi Agent,

I've had and still have (I think?) the same problem. Remembering people's faces is difficult. The faces are like covered with fog. But I know that I can remember a face clearly when I have seen it in a picture. Strange? What's the difference of a picture and a live face? Hmmmm. No answeres yet...

This may sound silly, but try less hard. Don't try and force it. Just do it, and NOPS it. Be thankful for what you do get and see how it progresses.

Just what I would do if I wanted that.

You are perfection.

Based on Jose Silva's instructions:
Next time you see your friend, see all the details on her face. See shapes of her nose, mouth, chin, forehead, eyes etc...
Imagine at the same time how it would feel to touching her face and hair . Next time when trying to remember her face remember those same feelings you had with her face to face.
