Better and Better,

The Silva Team

I’m talking about the Silva Method’s famous mind conditioning systems. It took my father, Jose Silva, 22 years of research and more than $500,000 to develop them. They are based on various mind frequencies and can be used to access the various levels of the mind such as the Beta, Theta and Alpha level.

I want to share with you an exercise that will guide you to your center brain frequency, the Alpha level—the level for deep relaxation.

While at your center you will experience many beneficial effects of deep meditation. These include:

• the reduction of stress
• positive influence on your health
• mental programming
• the kicking of bad habits
• goal setting through creative visualization
• the enhancement of creativity and intuition

I’ve put up the the exercise audio for you below, but before you take a listen, it is very important that you understand Meditation and Levels of the Mind. In case you want to refresh your memory, you can read what I wrote again.

Once you’ve clearly understood Meditation and Levels of the Mind, you can then start to use the Centering Exercise.

But first, please keep in mind the points below while practicing the Centering Exercise, so that you may experience the maximum benefits of this exercise.

The Three Things You Must Do

• First, practice on your concentration. Concentration is a basic skill. Concentrate on what the instructor tells you to do via the audio
• Second, practice using your imagination. We want you to learn how to exaggerate your imagination because you will be in a better position to control your creative visualization. At the same time, it will keep you active while going through the exercise. By being mentally active, you’ll avoid drifting off to sleep.
• Third, you must practice coordinating your physiological relaxation with your mental relaxation. It is easy to go into mental relaxation. But you must learn to let your body relax too. It takes a little longer for you to relax your body than it does for you to relax your mind.

You do not have to maintain a fixed, rigid position (that’s right, contrary to popular belief – you don’t need to sit in full lotus position to meditate). If you have to adjust your body to be comfortable, do so. If you need to scratch an itch, do it. Make yourself comfortable and you will be able to relax better.

If you feel uncomfortable for any reason, or if you feel that you want to open your eyes, then open your eyes immediately.

Tell yourself—mentally or verbally—to relax, that everything is okay. Then when you are relaxed, go back to the beginning of the recording and start over.

A  Few Things to Keep in Mind:

1. When I  say “project”—or “concentrate”—your sense of awareness on your scalp area, that’s where you start practicing concentration. Establish what your “awareness” is. Let’s pretend, for example, that it is a ray of light. Blue-white light. It is easier for us to focus a ray of light into that area than anything else.
2. Next you are instructed to detect the vibrations in that area, a “feeling of warmth caused by circulation”. Naturally, it is the blood circulation we are talking about. Concentrate on trying to feel the pulsations of those vibrations in that area. You may not feel them on your first try, but by the second or third effort, you will.
3. Then you are instructed to “release and completely relax all tensions and ligament pressures from this part of your body”. Don’t just recite it, concentrate on it, and exaggerate your imagination. How would you imagine your scalp being fully relaxed? Think. Concentrate. Maybe you would feel better imagining your scalp as if there is a warm, wet cloth draped over it. Use your imagination.
4. I will also say positive affirmations such as “every day in every way I am getting better and better”. Another affirmation you will hear is “I am now learning to attune my intelligence, and developing my sensing faculties, and learning to project them to different locations”. This is an affirmation we use in our seminars to train people to develop ESP.
5. At a certain point, I will tell you “When you next hear my voice one hour of time will have passed at this level of mind”. I will then go silent for 30 seconds before you hear his voice again. This is a mental suggestion to make you feel as relaxed as if you just had an hour of rest. One hour of time does not really pass – only 30 seconds will pass. But your subconscious mind will take this suggestion as being true and so you will feel the effects of having just had one hour of time pass at the alpha level of mind. You’ll feel more relaxed and calm.

When you combine your physiological relaxation with your mental relaxation you will be much more relaxed at the end of that exercise. The more you practice, the easier it will be to relax completely. Please remember, the secret to success is discipline. Practice makes perfect.

This is no different from training your physical body and getting into shape. If you exercise your body only once per month you get very different results than if you exercise daily. The same principle applies when you train and exercise your mind. The more you go into alpha, learn to visualize, relax, and tune into your intuition, the healthier and better your life becomes.

Side Note: Please listen to the exercise first, to make sure you don’t get any surprises that may take you off the flow.

Some Applications

With practice you will be able to tap into your intuitive feelings or hunches.

It just takes practice, and the knowledge that it is possible and that you can do it. In Silva Life System Seminars, the majority of participants are able to tap effectively into their intuition by day two of the seminar and perform health case readings on people unknown to them.

It is important that you continue to practice the Silva Centering Exercise regularly. We encourage graduates of the Silva Life System to practice it once a week for three months after they graduate. Many of us continue to practice it at least once a week even after that.

Once you have learned to relax in a sitting position, if you want to find a more comfortable position—to stretch out in a nice reclining chair for instance—then do so. First learn to enter deep, healthy levels of mind with conscious awareness—without going to sleep. After you’ve learned this, then you can enter deep levels even when lying down comfortably, and you can still remain awake for as long as you desire.

Now, let’s enjoy the Silva Centering exercise.

Spare no details, imagine the feeling of living your dream – that could be a beautiful family, running your own successful business, changing the world – ANYTHING!  What would you be doing?

What would you look like? Who would you be with? Spare no details, imagine the feeling of living your dream  and most importantly :

How would you feel?

Now its time for the tough question—do you have what you really, really want? Be honest with yourself – it will only help! ( A little tip – if there is a difference between the ideal life you just imagined and your own current reality, there is a good chance you have settled when you deserve better!)

Are you settling—have you given up on creating the ideal life you once dreamed of? Is this where you thought you would be 5 years ago? 10 years ago?

I don’t think anyone has to live a life that is ordinary—the sad thing is-most people do.

But by doing so they miss out on their true potential.

This post is about discovering your purpose in life and using your creative energies to fulfill this purpose. A life built around a greater purpose is a life that is truly fulfilling and exciting.

Different people have different definitions of success.

How would you define Success? For you success could be:

• starting a profitable business
• starting a loving family
• writing a book
• owning a beautiful 3-bedroom home in the country
• running a marathon
• spending 2 years abroad with the Peace Corps
• earning your first one million dollars
• recovering from a life-threatening illness

No matter what your definition is, it’s important to dream big and set a goal of what you’re seeking to accomplish.

Once you know what you want, the next step is to manifest it into your life. But often our manifestations are restricted cause we don’t realize our capacity and capability.

So before I begin, let’s take a glimpse at what the mind is really capable of accomplishing.

A well known figure once said:

“The greatest discovery of the 19th century was nothing in the realm of the physical sciences,but the power of the subconscious mind touched by faith. Any individual can tap into an eternal reservoir of power that will enable them to overcome any problem that may arise. All weaknesses can be overcome, bodily healing,financial independence, spiritual awakening,prosperity beyond your wildest dreams. This is the superstructure of happiness.”

~ William James

These words were said not by a guru on a mountaintop or a new-age, self-improvement writer, but by William James, the Harvard psychologist known as the Father of American Psychology.

To the untrained mind, William James’s statement may seem far-fetched, but modern discoveries are finding his words to be true.

Let’s look at some examples of what happens when this “eternal reservoir of power” is harnessed properly.

Case #1 – Using the Mind in Sports

Dr. Charles Garfield, former NASA researcher and current president of The Performance-Science Institute in Berkeley, California, talks about a startling experiment conducted by Soviet sports scientists.

The study examined the effect of mental training, including visualization, on four groups of world-class athletes just prior to the 1980 Olympics in Lake Placid, New York. The four groups of elite athletes were divided as follows:

• Group 1: did 100% physical training.
• Group 2: did 75% physical training, 25% mental training.
• Group 3: did 50% physical training, 50% mental training.
• Group 4: did 25% physical training, 75% mental training.

What the researchers found was that group 4 – the group with the most mental training – had shown significantly greater improvement than group 3.

Likewise, group 3 showed more improvement than group 2, and group 2 showed more improvement than group 1.

These results were astonishing. Who would expect that athletes training mentally would be able to advance further than their counterparts who were training physically?

Garfield said, “During mental rehearsal, athletes create mental images of the exact movements they want to emulate in their sport. Use of this skill substantially increases the effectiveness of goal-setting, which up until then had been little more than a dull listing procedure.”

So this makes me wonder:

If mental exercises and visualization could have such a profound impact on athletes, what kind of impact could it have on you?

Can you use the same principle to improve your attitudes, confidence and skills? Could it impact your learning ability; your golf swing; your ability to shed weight and stick to a diet?

The answer is yes.

Case #2 – Miraculous Healing

The following story will challenge your idea of just how much your mind influences your body.

In 1950, a new drug called Krebiozen had received sensational national publicity as a “cure” for cancer and was being tested by the American Medical Association (AMA) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). One of the researchers involved in this testing was a doctor named Bruno Klopfer.

One of Dr. Klopfer’s patients, Mr. Wright, was suffering from cancer of the lymph nodes. All standard treatments had been exhausted, and Wright appeared to have little time left. His neck, armpits, chest, abdomen, and groin were filled with tumors the size of oranges, and his spleen and liver were so enlarged that two quarts of milky fluid had to be drained out of his body each day.

When Wright discovered that Dr. Klopfer was involved in research on Krebiozen, he begged to be given Krebiozen treatments. At first his doctor refused because the drug was untested and only being tried on people with a life expectancy of at least three months. Wright begged so hard, however, that Klopfer decided to give him one injection on Friday, though he secretly suspected Wright would not last the weekend.

Dr. Klopfer was in for a big surprise.

On the following Monday, Klopfer found Wright out of bed and walking around. Klopfer reported that his tumors had “melted like snowballs on a hot stove” and were half their original size. This was a far more rapid decrease in size than even the strongest X-ray treatments could have accomplished.

Ten days after Wright’s first Krebiozen treatment, he left the hospital, and as far as his doctors could tell, with no signs of cancer. When he entered the hospital, he had needed an oxygen mask to breathe, but when he left he was well enough to fly his own plane at 12,000 feet with no discomfort.

Wright remained well for about two months, but then articles began to appear asserting that Krebiozen actually had no effect on cancer of the lymph nodes. Wright, who was rigidly logical and scientific in his thinking, became very depressed, suffered a relapse, and was readmitted to the hospital. This time his physician decided to try an experiment.

Dr. Klopfer told Wright that Krebiozen was every bit as effective as it had seemed, but that some of the initial supplies of the drug had deteriorated during shipping. He explained, however, that he had a new highly-concentrated version of the drug and could treat Wright with this. Of course, the physician did not have a new version of the drug and intended to inject Wright with nothing more than plain sterile water.

Again the results were dramatic. The tumor masses melted, chest fluid had vanished, and Wright was quickly back on his feet and feeling great. Yet he had been injected with nothing more than sterile water.

Wright remained symptom-free for another two months, but then the American Medical Association announced that a nationwide study of Krebiozen had found the drug worthless in the treatment of cancer. This time Wright’s faith was completely shattered. His cancer blossomed anew and he died two days later.

Wright’s story is tragic, but it contains a powerful message: When we are fortunate enough to bypass our disbelief and tap the healing forces within us, we can cause tumors to melt away overnight.

The patient’s mind alone, independent of the value of the medication, produced his recovery.

This event proves that your mind is so powerful that it can literally bring wonderful or tragic events to bear within days. Most people do not learn how to tap into and control this powerful force.

Many people do have their minds working for them, but in negative ways. Doctors call this psychosomatic illness – an illness caused by a person’s negative belief system.

You can learn how to create positive belief systems and how to  use visualization to accelerate your body’s rate of healing and recovery.

Case #3 – Creating Positive Coincidences

It is an undisputed fact that the mind can influence the physical body but can the mind influence the world beyond your body?

In other words, can the mind create coincidences and influence reality?

People all around the world have experienced this in their own lives and will say that the answer is yes – your world can be shaped by your thoughts and beliefs.

The following story describes one such incident – how one man discovered the power of his mind in creating coincidences. He went on to use this ability to become so successful that his work is almost a household name in America.

For the purpose of this story, let’s call this man Scott. His full name will not be revealed until the end to make this story more intriguing. This story was told in a book Scott wrote in 1998.

In the early 1980s, Scott had heard of a process called affirmations from a friend. The process he learned was simple.

Visualize what you want and write it down fifteen times in a row, once a day, until you obtain it.

Scott was told that the process did not require any faith or positive thinking for it to work. Even more interesting was the suggestion that the technique would influence the environment directly and not just make you more focused on your goals. In other words, it would spawn amazing coincidences to move you toward your goals. The coincidences could be things that were seemingly unconnected to you and beyond your control.

Scott was very left-brained and logical in his thinking. He had his doubts about the process but figured that there was no harm in trying.

“Within a few weeks, coincidences started to happen to me.” wrote Scott.

“Amazing coincidences, strings of them. I won’t mention the specific goal I was working on, as it was a private matter, but within a few months the goal was accomplished exactly as I had written it.”

But Scott was not yet convinced that affirmations helped. Coincidences do happen on their own and Scott considered the test inconclusive.

So Scott picked another goal – to make some gains in the stock market. He wrote his affirmation down every day and waited for some inspiration. It came to him in a dream. He woke up one night with the words “Buy Chrysler” repeating in his head.

He bought shares in the inspired company during one of its most bleak periods yet it began to rise soon after and he made some good returns on it. He repeated the experiment again and managed to pick another successful company, with stock symbol “Ask”.

Armed with this confidence in the power of affirmations Scott decided to apply it to a more challenging goal – getting into the highly competitive University of California at Berkeley MBA program.

The problem was that he had already taken the entrance exam, the G.M.A.T, and only hit the 77th percentile score. He knew he needed to be above the 90th percentile to at least have a chance of being accepted.

Scott picked the outlandish target of 94 as his goal and again applied the affirmation technique.

Despite not being able to go much higher than the 77th percentile in the practice exams Scott was surprised to learn that he did indeed hit the 94th percentile for the G.M.A.T – just as he had written in his affirmations. He graduated with his Berkeley MBA in 1986.

A few years later he tried pursuing a more serious goal, that of being a syndicated cartoonist. He knew the odds of his cartoon submission being accepted by a major newspaper were roughly 1 in 10,000.

He beat those odds and his cartoon was accepted. He was soon earning a decent living with his cartoon strip but he wanted to achieve something bigger.

He decided he wanted the most successful comic strip on the planet. Scott felt that the best measure of “most successful”; would be number of books sold.

In June 1996 his book The Dilbert Principle hit the number-one spot on the hardcover nonfiction list of the New York Times. It stayed in the top three all summer. In November his second book, Dogbert’s TopSecret Management Handbook, also made the bestseller list, giving Scott the number-one and number-two positions simultaneously for one week. For that brief period of time, Scott indeed had the “most successful” comic strip on the planet.

As you may have guessed, the person I’m talking about is Scott Adams, the creator of the highly successful Dilbert comic strip. Scott writes about these experiences with affirmations in his book The Dilbert Future. He does not profess to know why it works but leaves the conclusion to the reader. You can buy Scott Adams’ hilarious Dilbert books at any bookstore.

Reporters often ask me if I am surprised at the success ofthe Dilbert comic strip. I definitely would be so,if not for my bizarre experience with affirmations.As it was, I expected it.

~ Scott Adams, The Dilbert Future

Scott Adams’ experience with affirmations makes one wonder is luck within our control?

I’ll share the process of affirmations in the next few blog posts.

I am also going to share the techniques I have used to  manifest goals.

But I’m curious to know:

What does Success mean for YOU?

Until Soon.

Better and Better,

Laura

I had no reason to not share these great stories. Sometimes all we need is a little bit more faith and we can walk through the mental barrier that has been holding us back. Take the next step, I am with you like all other Silva Graduates.

For now, enjoy reading.

Business

My stress levels have dropped remarkably just by using Silva

My consulting business is tied completely to the building business and we all know where that has gone in the past months. I have lost over 75% of my clients to foreclosures, bankruptcy and just giving up their business’s. The loss in income has been devastating. We have been living on our savings, trying to keep things together but we came to the end of our ropes. My family life has suffered. We had to sell my children’s horses and tensions have run high between my wife and I. Our marriage has been crumbling on the heels of our losses. It was disheartening to say the least when you see a 20 year relationship weaken just at the time when a solid relationship is needed most – hard times.

I had started the Silva Ultramind ESP Home Study course several years ago, but had a hard time doing it on my own. I recently re-ordered the Silva Ultramind ESP Home study course and went through the discs one time. Then I went through again, concentrating hard, working at it. Needless to say my stress levels dropped markedly and almost immediately. Day by day I went to level, sometimes several times a day and my vision cleared. My path seemed to unfold in front of me and I am following it diligently. I have secured a decent job AND started another business, one that not only will help me get back on my feet, but will help others who have been adverely affected by our downtrodden economy. My wife and I are working at patching our relationship and I have convinced her to at least try the Long Relax exercise.

It is a start and that is all that one can ask for.

Thanks to Silva Methods, I’ve overcome my problems and found a job

I am a Silva Novice. I have Fibromyaglia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Hypothyroidism … many conditions that I came down with while I was pregnant. I had to give up my wonderfully paying job and my husband and I had to live on one income. I was very frustrated but I learned that I was actually given a gift — the gift of watching my daughter grow up and being deeply involved in her life.

I originally bought the Silva Ultramind System because I was having trouble meditating. I have always had trouble meditating – I often found myself frustrated with the things that were being said during the meditation and I was never able to find my “treasure room.” I knew meditation would be good for me so I kept on looking for something — anything to help me.

I tried a Silva meditation on line and it was the first time I felt better after meditation. I immediately purchased the Silva Ultramind system. I have been doing the 1-2-3 method at least once a week for about six months now. About 4 months ago I had been thinking about how could turn some of the things I do with my daughter into some sort of income. I know I thought about it while I was at level.

One month later, I received a call asking if I would like to become involved in one of these programs as a paid part time employee. While the number of hours is small there is already indication that I will be getting more work soon! I believe that the Silva method left me open to this opportunity and let others know I was open to this opportunity.

Maureen Psaila-Dombrowski, New Mexico

I will tell you now a story how the Silva Method has been a stabilizing force in my life for over 30 years.

I took the course in 1974 in an instructor led program when it was touring through the Boston, Massachusetts area. My life was pretty crazy at the time. I was having trouble finishing college and maintaining a relationship. It was a period where I was having difficulty staying focused on anything through completion.

Well – I took the course. Now equipped with the knowledge of how to focus and direct my inner self, to count down and relax, and the new found ability to quickly get to an optimal mind level when needed, I found I was better equipped to control my desires and actions to make my life better and better.

I got back into school and graduating from a major Boston area university with honors. I got married, and am still married after 26 years. Shortly after that I changed careers to the computer business, where I have enjoyed a successful career ever since.

And through all of this the Silva Method has kept me in good stead. When I am facing a real challenge or a difficult problem, I get to my level and work through the best solution. On long airplane flights, count down to a relaxation level and program myself to wake up just before arrival, feeling better and better in every way.

I can honestly say that the learning the Silva Method was one of the best investments of time and effort I have ever made.

Thank You!

Fred Federlein, Boston

Silva helped me to be at the right place in the right time and meet the right people

I learned from the Silva Method through a medical doctor who attended several Silva Seminars in 2006. Since March 2007 I am regularly reading the Silva News and applying the Silva Techniques through the Free Silva UltraMind Online Training Program.

I am surprised how much my life and career changed since then. When regularly applying the basic Silva-techniques (especially lesson 4 Visualization & Affirmation) I realized that I always manage to be at the right place at the right time and meet the right people to perform brilliantly and to become a successful happy person again.

Already after Lesson 8 I decided not to pursue my old reward less and frustrating job, started a new education in natural medicine, recently succeeded the final exams in the top 10% of class.

I realized that I am no more the average performance person but that I can achieve excellent results by controlling my mental states (concentration /relaxation) voluntarily. I am currently establishing my new business with lots of success without advertising. I know that I am attracting the right clients by power of will. I even noticed my positive influence on family members and friends. I am much more positive.

I stopped my bad habit of procrastination and became very motivated and thus turning my life into a joyful rewarding one.

It helped me do something amazing despite a challenging and unfriendly system

This is what really happened to me four years ago when I was finishing my course at an engineering college.

Well, where I come from, software companies visit colleges and recruit students and offer them jobs before they complete their graduation. Each student can receive an offer letter for ONE job only, meaning once he or she is offered a job and if they accept it, they cannot apply for another job, unless they reject the current job offer they hold.

There is a lot of competition to get a job especially in a company of one’s choice. So that’s a brief background to put things in context.

Now as I was finishing graduation, a lot of companies came to my college and recruited students. I applied for all of them and failed each time. I had failed to get a job after 8 companies had come to our campus and I was told that there were only a handful more. After that we would have to go and look for jobs off campus and that is indeed a scary and tough prospect cause we were still in a job market slowdown and I had heard that a lot of my seniors who had graduated the previous year had not yet found jobs. I was really scared and did not know what to do.

I had always been one of the top ten students for my batch through out the four years of engineering and I was really confused as to why I could not land a job that had a test and an interview in it. I was good at tests and interviews.

So this was when I picked up the Silva Mind Control book that had been lying around at home and went through it and practiced it for, if I recall correctly, about two or three weeks. In this time, I visualized that all my class mates were congratulating me and shaking my hand and I was feeling really good about it.

After some time, another company came by to recruit students and I attended their interview process. There were a lot of students who were applying for this company, more than the previous ones, since it called students from other colleges as well. I cleared all the tests and went right up to the personal interview. But they were not going to release the results immediately since there was some processing involved.

In the mean time, a second company came to campus for interviews and since the results for the previous company were not out yet, I was allowed to appear for that interview. I had appeared for two interviews, but then neither had released their results yet. So I did the only thing I could do, wait anxiously.

After the results came out, I had the most unbelievable surprise. BOTH the companies had given me job offers; I was the ONLY student ever on campus with TWO job offers while a lot of the other students were struggling to get even one. The rest of the visualization came true. All my friends were really congratulating me and I felt good about it.

Since then I have had some more amazing experiences with the Silva method that are really unbelievable, but I felt that I had to share my first experience with the Silva method, cause it was a special one and it helped me do something out of the world in a system that almost made it impossible for me to do it and that was the FIRST time I ever used the Silva method.

A big thanks to Silva for giving me the wonderful process of mind control and also this opportunity to remember and share my first experience with the Silva method. I needed to remember it more than ever at this juncture in my life.

Every day, I have a feeling of peace and happiness that I have never felt before

My experience with the Silva mind control material has been amazing, my life has changed in so many areas my relationships are improving on a daily basis, with my girlfriend and with my friends.

I am a student, the thing is that I have always been an A+ student, but now it takes me fewer time to prepare for my exams in the financial area, i was a bartender and I got my dream job just 2 weeks ago… and I’ve lost 20 pounds, of fat, while building some muscle.

But more important that all the success I have been experiencing, I have a feeling of peace and happiness that I have never felt before on a daily basis, I feel more confident and more attractive.

Healing

As a nurse, I am now better able to help my patients –using Silva meditation techniques.

I had hurt my knee by tearing the meniscus. This limited me tremendously in my job as a nurse. I lost my job due to my inability to keep up with the physical requirements demanded of me. After being out of work for three months I became very depressed over the loss of income as well as the lack of mobility. I purchased Silva Mind Control at a used book store. I had heard many wonderful things about Jose Silva. With lots of time on my hands I decided to read and put into practice the lessons I was learning.

For the first time I was able to meditate without falling asleep. Not only did I become more focused and positive but my knee started healing at a rapid rate. The swelling went down as well as the aches and pains. I have more mobility than I had before. Not to mention the Silva books gave me an added positive outlook. I started a new nursing job and am helping others look into the Silva Program aiding them to focus with added healing possibilities.

One of my clients has been able to lower her life long high blood pressure using some of the meditation techniques.

I haven’t gone a day without Silva for the last 30 years

My name is Dino Delano, I thought Silva system of Mind Control from 1972 to 1977 both in the US and Canada. Even though this is almost thirty years ago, I still us the methods almost on a daily basis. I am a published writer, photographer and Poet. I can attest that the ability to visualize end results has been a major contributor to mush of what I have done. Just a few years ago my right shoulder froze up so that I could not move my right arm no further than up to my belt line. Using visualization each day I would see my arm moving closer and closer to the middle of my back, within two weeks my mobility was back to normal.

Being able to prevent your children from suffering pain is an amazing feeling

I graduated from Jose Silva’s class, in 1973, in Chicago. My instructor was Joyce B. At that time, my daughters were seven and eight years old. I explained the ‘magic’ in my left hand, and told them, that whenever they were hurt, I could take away the pain. They never suffered the typical pain, associated with the scrapes, bumps and bruises, of childhood.

One day, my daughter Pamela came screaming into the room, “Daddy, daddy, I need your left hand.” Her arm was grotesquely broken and bent almost at a right angle, just above her wrist. I laid my left hand on her arm, and she immediately stopped crying. She said that the pain had gone away, and was completely calm through the entire ordeal of resetting the arm. What a wonderful feeling, to have been able to prevent my children from suffering pain.

P.S. Pamela is now 42 years old. Last week, she called to tell me that she was beginning a very painful series of dental work, including bone grafts. She said, “Daddy, I need your left hand.”

Rich Nilsson, USA

I have been called the Miracle Man. In 6 months, my tumors were gone.

This is amazing…that first story is my story almost to the letter..In 1999. I was diagnosed with lung cancer.The Drs. told me..and showed me the four tumors on my lung…They told me I had 8 months to 1yr to live. Thats when I first heard of the Jose Silva method…of meditation to heal ones self…and I used that method for 6 months…and just like in your first story…after 3 months the Dr.didn’t understand how the tumors was SHRINKING…and after 6 months..that they were completely gone…

Now I also did the chemo and changed my diet…but the Drs. called their miracle..and to this day when I go back for checkups…they still call me the miraclew man….but I know that GOD played a huge part, if not all of this miracle…after all it was HIM that put the Drs. in my life and the Silva method…so yes it was GOD,S that got me better…Thank you

I will meditate with Silva. I will recover. And I will propose to her.

This is what my search began. I went to learn Reiki from a Reiki Master in the year 2001. I received the initiation and felt lot of boost in energy in my body. From the dayafter my Reiki initiation, I was able to maintain fasting for nearly 3 months with only boiled rice and water only one time for nearly 3 months, which made me to get some level of physical purification.

In the beginning of March I began to experience intuition eventhough I never did any meditation or yoga. So, I wrote to Bihar School of Yoga, which is a very well known institution in the field of Yogic Sciences. Yogis from Bihar School of Yoga told me that because of some level of purification, I experienced intuition, which is a very subtle manifestation of spiritual energy as I understood it from their letter.

So, I took interest in meditation because art of living without food, Reiki, and meditation taught to me that there is a world out there, which we have to search for through meditation and yogic practices.

When I googled for meditation I came across Silva Ultramind ESP program. Fortunately, Anneke Riewald, a Silva Trainer from Netherlands, now living in India, began teaching Silva Ultramind ESP. She told me a lot about Silva Ultramind and taught me a lot. But due to current office timings and poor state of health I did not practice Silva except for only one week. So, I am willing to take ESP program again and would like to start SILVA ESP for a new beginning.

I feel I need to go for cancer screening as my health is very poor. I feel I will completely recover from my poor health to achieve physical purification through SILVA ESP.

Laura, a girl in my office began loving me. I am avoiding her proposals because of my poor state of health and she is very much upset. Laura, I request you to go in higher levels and tell her that if I am 100 percent disease free after intense SILVA practice then only I am going to propose, okay.

As I received healing initiations, I may not be able to fully project myself during the case working sessions (I felt intense pain in my left hand during the case working session, which is actually correct because the person I was trying to work on had severe pain in the left hand in the past) but I hope after taking the SILVA ESP program again and intense practice, I am going to get a new beginning.

I can feel the presence of Spiritual Energy if somebody is radiating and it is also possible to send energy through our eyes and hands to do healing. So tell the SILVA COMMUNITY to visualize that they are sending energy through their eyes to the walls, especially the SOUTH WALL, which will again radiate the alpha energy back to us. A friend of mine while doing meditation did that and his meditation room has tremendous amounts of energy radiation inside. It is true.

Maybe I did not have an amazing story to tell you as I am yet to begin SILVA ESP, but after intense SILVA practice I will be back to normal, and I am going to propose her.

Thanks to Silva, I’m not afraid to make life decisions anymore

I have been introduced to the Silva Method almost 15 years ago, while I was attending college. I purchased the book, enjoyed reading it, but encountered less support from my family and close friends. I allowed all the disbelief to take over my belief, and as a result of this, I neglected the system and stopped meditating, even though I have always used and trusted in my instinct.

I left my home country in 2000 and moved to the US. I had strong premonitions in certain situations, and with time every one of them became reality. When I got pregnant I had to stop using one of my creams, which was necessary to treat my allergic reactions. This was the first time when I instantly turned toward the Silva Method.

I begun visualization and set a deadline, when I expect the condition to disappear. It came so naturally, and by the time my child was born, my skin allergy was gone. A couple months later I have discovered a lump on my eyelid. It was completely painless but growing, becoming more and more visible.

I went to the doctor and he told me that it is not serious, but I need a small day surgery in order to clean the clogged tear duct. He informed me, that there is no way that it will clear up on its own. I was afraid of the surgery and I did not trust doctors at all, because I had many bad experiences and was mis-diagnosed several times. So I went home, and begun visualizing that the lump becomes smaller and smaller every day.

Within 3 months the lump was gone. These made me believe that the Silva Method truly works. On the top of these minor health issues, I have learned to trust my instincts again. It helped me eliminate unnecessary surgeries for my older daughter and for me.

On the other hand, it provided me a stable state of mind in my troubled marriage. It allowed me to calm down, reevaluate my current situation, be patient, and shift my focus from feeling sorry for myself to start on the path to regain my lost sel-esteem and self-confidence.

Now, I worry less about my troubled marriage, the daily discouragement from my husband, and follow my instincts to take control over my life, knowing that practicing the Silva Method helps me strengthen my instincts by rely on them, not acting against them. I know that I will take proper actions in order to live the life I want, and to allow my children to live a happy, healthy (physically and mentally) and successful life.

This system just proved that everything I believe, all of my moral and ethical norms, are good and I do not need to be afraid to make decisions in order to live my life.

I helped my daughter overcome cancer.

I first heard about the Silva Method 30 years ago from a co-worker. I kept the idea of Silva Mind Control in mind, and bought the book a few years later. I later learned self-hypnosis, which I practiced regularly, along with traditional (mantra) meditation. In 2005 I took the Silva Ultramind Course and it reignited my interest in mind power. I have since used the techniques regularly to bring good things into my life.

Last August my daughter was diagnosed with a reoccurrence of breast cancer—Stage 4, metastasized all over her body. She decided not to undergo whole brain radiation and chemotherapy the doctors suggested. She is using all natural healing methods, organic juice, food, and supplements—and meditation.

I have been helping her by using Silva healing techniques, visualizing the cancer going away—and it is! 8 months later, the cancer is more than half gone. I am sure the Silva Method has played a significant role in her healing.

Thanks a lot–

How I overcome my health problem after attending a Silva Seminar

I had the good fortune to take the course initially with Allen Lee and Karen Skorgie in Canada. Allen and Karen were both were very much into healing and the course was heavily slanted in that direction. Immediately after the course, while I was still fired up with all the success stories Allen and Karen had told,

I decided I would fix my eyes. Prior to the course, without my glasses, my world had about a 3 foot radius. I could not see distance. I put my glasses on when I got up in the morning and took them off when I went to bed at night. Things like swimming were impossible because without the glasses I would get a headache after about fifteen minutes. I went to level three or four times per day for about 20 minutes each time.

The first week I mainly visualized the muscles in my eyes becoming stronger, getting full range of motion, and being able to change the focus of the lens from near to far and back again. Over and over.

The second week I visualized being at the pistol range with my Ruger .357 Blackhawk. I made every little detail as real as I could. I would raise the gun from my side, feeling the weight and balance. I would feel the checkering on the hammer as I pulled it back with my thumb. I would see the cylinder rotate, hear it click at half cock and hear the second click at full cock. I would feel the breeze in the little hairs on my arm, smell the powder smoke from the other shooters.

Then I would focus on my breathing and sighting the gun. I would see the rear sight crystal clear. Then the front sight crystal clear. Then the target. Then back and forth between the front sight and the target while I slowly pulled the trigger back, controlling my breathing, feeling the tension of the trigger spring. Finally the gun would fire. I would see the flame come out of the barrel. I would feel the gun rotate in my hand from the recoil, feel the concussion from the blast. I would hear the bang echoing in the hills. I would see and smell the smoke.

Then I would see the hole in the target. Lower the gun, take a deep breath and raise the gun for another shot. This second week was roughly the same schedule as the first. Three times per day visualizing myself shooting about 20 minutes each time.

By the third week I no longer needed by glasses to see distance. I still had a problem driving at night. Instead of seeing two headlights coming towards me, I would see a couple huge white balls that were joined together. The street lights also looked pretty strange.

That is when I learned a large part of my vision problem was astigmatism which is an improper curvature of the eyeball. Back to the lab. This time I visualized working on the eyeball exactly the way I would on a bent car fender. Pop out the eyeballs. Bang down the high spots, push out the low spots, add a bit of filler and carefully sand it to get the curve perfect. It was three or four days before I got it right and co-incidentally my drivers license was up for renewal.

I asked to take the eye test to see if I could get the eyeglass restriction removed. I could no longer see clearly through the glasses anyways. I passed the eye test without any problem. Two weeks after that I passed the eye test for the renewal of my pilots license. 20/20. It was easy. The doctor for my pilot license exam had all my prior records and could not believe that I had not had laser surgery. All that visualization had also improved my shooting. I had two interesting side effects from working on my eyes.

My night vision is much better than the average persons. My eyes water in bright sunlight so I need to wear sunglasses on nice days.

My mother was the most impressed with my eyesight improvement. She knew how bad my eyes had always been and had spent a lot of money on eyeglasses for me over the years. She was wearing a cervical collar at the time and was on a waiting list for neck surgery for a couple collapsed disks. This is a surgery where they go in from the front and, to put it mildly, she was very apprehensive about it.

Mom decided that if I could fix my eyes, she could fix her neck. She took the course and worked on her neck. She visualized the discs re-inflating and getting thicker and the vertebrae being pushed apart so they did not grind against each other. She visualized being able to turn her neck and look over her shoulder. Her pain went away. The range of motion came back and she even re-gained a bit of her height. The X-rays confirmed she no longer needed the surgery. Her doctor was dumbfounded. This was 1987. Moms neck is still good and so are my eyes.

In the last 20 years I have had hundreds of successes with visualizations. Everything thing from seeing exams in detail the day before I had to write them to finding things – including lost people and airplanes. Visualization is an incredible way to get information. Three words summarize the whole process. Desire, belief and expectancy. Proficiency requires practice.

Need more inspiration?

Many people find it difficult to believe that I would run a marathon every three weeks. Add this on top of running Silva International and being a loving wife and mother, its no secret that I need to have an endless supply of energy.

For me, it is important to stick to a certain routine to maintain my health, and to always have energy to be able to give more.

I thought I would share how my day looks like. I hope you will enjoy the video and maybe it will help you in some ways too.

P.S. I am curious to know if you have any health or routine secrets that keep you energized through the day! Let me know in the comments below.

My father trained my elder sister to first be a healer and following on, the amazing feats which she was then capable of achieving. I got so many emails and comments about people asking about Isabel, that I was determined to find more information for you. I found an old video and thought I’ll share this one with you.

Excuse the bad sound, it’s an old video. Isabel and I don’t dress like that anymore, neither do we have such hairstyles. So don’t make fun of our hairstyles .

It offers information that will enhance your concentration, your ability to learn and your recall ability. This MicroCourse will help you better learn and remember the vast amounts of information that you receive in your everyday life and will help you stay abreast with the competition.

In Alpha Anchor for Learning you will discover that trigger mechanisms can be any number of specific experiences involving any of the physical senses, which activate a conditioned or predictable response such as better concentration during learning, relaxation, or remembering information during a test. You would learn how to empower thoughts, behaviors, beliefs, resources, and feelings.

I believe in these times we all could do with a little more learning. You can share the audios with your friends, kids and other family members, as the exercise is very simple to do and will be helpful for all of them. It is also more fun to have family and friends involved in something amazing that you are experiencing. Isn’t it?
