Exercises for visual memory?

Hello all, I am looking for exercises to develop visual memory after a TBI. In general, but also with specific application for drawing. 

I’d like to be able to process then recall full shapes and relationships of elements to each other, and not just parts of them.   

Thank you

Thanks.  Interesting, that.   Actually the line about subvocalizing is right on.   Those exercises have the right idea; however, my tendency to subvocalize is so strong that I would name the objects and turn it into an auditory memorization task.  What’s really needed is a similar exercise (or game)  where you have to recreate shapes that are not named or recognizable (as in shadows on a sheet of crumpled paper), or the negative space between two objects. Where you have to visually remember the angles of multiple planes. (Might have just answered my own question).

I just thought Amen might have such a game. Have not yet checked out the brain games.  I’ve been doing this as drawing exercises.  

It’s really a visual therapy question.

Oh, I thought you’d explored the memory games here so I was giving you additional options. Here is a link to ours on this site:

I don’t think it does, but I’ll double-check with the tech team and let you know if there’s a way to get those alerts. Best!

ALso, totally off subject, but when you are talking to them, there needs to be a widget on the home page dashboard (and under the “Feed My Brain” menu button”  to access your meal plan calendar.  Right now it looks like you have to go into the recipes, pull one up, and find it from there. Not intuitive at all, esp for someone dealing with a TBI.

Thanks Coach Zoe.  Is there a place where they take feedback on the apps, website etc?  I’d love to be in on that process.
