Step 4: Subvocabulation - Beyond Single Words to Meaningful Chunks
Traditionally, reading focuses on individual words, often leading to slow decoding and difficulty grasping meaning. RIRT introduces subvocabulation, where the Peripheral Wand guides you to focus on key nouns and verbs, the pillars of sentences. This reduces cognitive load, allowing you to process information faster and identify the core message quicker. Think of it like skipping pebbles instead of individual grains of sand to cross a river - you arrive at the other side much faster.
Why is this Important? It's not just about speed. By focusing on core elements, you shift your attention from decoding to comprehension, allowing you to engage with the author's intent and meaning on a deeper level.
Step 5: Rapid - Embrace the Flow, Not the Struggle
Traditionally, reading can feel like a laborious task, with focus easily lost and fatigue setting in. RIRT with the Peripheral Wand fosters alertness and engagement, encouraging you to read at a controlled pace that matches your mind's processing speed. This reduces wasted time and mental effort, allowing you to absorb information effortlessly and enjoy the flow of the text.
Why is this Important? Reading shouldn't be a struggle. By optimizing your pace and minimizing distractions, you'll find yourself immersed in the story, experiencing the excitement and knowledge it offers without feeling overwhelmed.

Step 6: Mind - Unleash the Full Power of Your Cognitive Capacity
Traditionally, reading often engages only a limited portion of the brain. RIRT's Immerse stage, with the Wand's guidance, unlocks your full cognitive potential. It helps you organize text for effortless processing, enhances working memory, and activates your entire brain, including areas responsible for imagination, critical thinking, and emotional connection.
Why is this Important? Imagine reading like a conductor, bringing all parts of your cognitive orchestra together. By engaging your full brain, you gain a richer understanding, make deeper connections, and transform words into a truly immersive experience.
Step 7: Visualisation - See Beyond the Words, Experience the World
Traditionally, reading focuses on the literal meaning of words. RIRT encourages you to visualise what you read, creating a tangible mental image. The Peripheral Wand acts as a trigger, prompting you to engage your senses and transform words into vivid experiences. This not only enhances memory and comprehension but also fosters emotional connection and critical thinking, allowing you to step into the author's world and truly understand their message.
Why is this Important? Reading shouldn't be passive. By visualising, you become an active participant in the story, feeling its emotions, understanding its complexities, and learning from its characters. This enriches your reading experience and helps you connect with the material on a deeper level.
