The Gymnasium of the Mind

The Lyceum

Train the mind the way the Greeks trained the body.

The Lyceum was Aristotle’s school — a gymnasium where the mind was trained like the body. Here it holds two rooms. In the Gym you train your judgment on problems you have never seen; in Anamnesis you keep the ideas you have already read from fading. Today’s session draws from both.

Today at the Lyceum

One sitting that mixes the cards your memory is ready to review with a couple of fresh puzzles you have not seen. Warm up by recalling what you know, then test your judgment on what you do not.
