What are non-visual visualization techniques?

Non-visual visualization techniques refer to the practice of creating mental images or representations of ideas, concepts, or data without relying on actual visual stimuli. These techniques involve tapping into other senses, such as auditory, tactile, kinesthetic, or even olfactory, to stimulate the imagination and enhance the mental imagery process. By engaging multiple sensory channels, individuals can better comprehend and process information, and improve memory retention. Non-visual visualization techniques are particularly useful for individuals with visual impairments or those who prefer to comprehend information in a non-visual manner. Examples include using sound cues or verbal descriptions, physical objects or models, guided imagery, spatial awareness exercises, or even associating concepts with smells or tastes.
