Discovering
the Silva Method
by

Jose Silva developed The Silva Method
course for a very special reason. He wanted to help his children do
better in school. As a totally self taught man he knew the importance
of a good education.
While in the army he began to study about psychology. That led to
learning about brain function. With a background in electronics he
knew different frequencies meant different reception in radios and
TV. He researched to find out what happened at different brain frequencies
in man. One thing that really got his attention was the fact that
creative problem solving by heads of corporations and artistic creativity
for many kinds of artists occurred when the brain was cycling at the
slower brain wave frequency known as alpha.
When he returned from the army he started on this quest to help his
children do better in school. Using his own children and later some
of the neighborhood children as his laboratory he researched and developed
a way for the children to use their minds differently. The children’s
grades improved and also their health. Slowly the word spread about
the success of the work of this man, first throughout Texas, then
the United States and now the world. The Silva Method is now taught
in 87 languages and in 108 countries.
Just what is this program that has become the most imitated personal
development program in the world? Simply stated it is mind development
and stress control for better health, memory, concentration, solution
development, goal setting, increased intuition and much more. These
are characteristics that are beneficial for all of us.
In the first part of the course students learn to manage their personal
energy to improve health and manage stress. Imagine for just a minute
what it would be like to be in total control of your mind, body and
emotions. You are able to relax your body and mind and calm yourself
instantly. When you direct your personal energy you can achieve a
healthy, positive state in minutes. This is the first key to a happier,
healthier life.
It is now a widely accepted fact that more than 90 percent of physical
problems are stress related. Just being alive in the twenty first
century can be stressful. Add to that the numerous activities we engage
in and you have an ideal set up for stress. The important thing is
what are you doing to lower the stress and its effects on you and
your life. Learning to relax quickly no matter the circumstances is
one of the keys you can learn. Graduates of the Silva program have
overcome many health problems using the techniques learned in the
course including migraine headaches, cancer, high blood pressure,
multiple sclerosis and drug addictions to name just a few.
Herbert Benson MD teaches that relaxation is the key to improved health.
The dynamic meditation as taught in the Silva Method is a very effective
and efficient way to achieve the deep meditation necessary for resolving
health issues.
How many are very clear about what they do not want in their life?
Are you as clear about what you would choose to have in your life?
There are very effective techniques in the course that are used to
make good decisions easily without going through analysis paralysis
that occurs when you run all the options over and over in your mind.
Once you know what it is that you choose for yourself and your family
you can then access the creative abilities that you have to reach
that goal. Using more of your mind as you learn to do in the course
you stay focused on the goal. You also learn to tap into your creativity
and intuition to recognize your opportunities. Making the most of
your opportunities means recognizing them for what they are. Imagine
having such a keen sense of intuition that you could regularly tap
into this source. Could this ability have helped you make better decisions
in the past?
Intuition, like creativity and imagination, is a faculty of genius
and a function of right hemisphere brain functioning. Ninety percent
of adults have lost their ability to draw from this part of their
intelligence though we all possessed it as children. Regaining access
to this part of your creative genius is part of The Silva Method training.
The Silva Method course includes exercises to improve right hemisphere
brain function. This leads to whole brain use. Some of the exercises
during the course are designed to open up the communication between
the brain hemispheres. You then function as a whole brained individual;
having the analytical qualities of left brain function and the creative,
intuitive qualities of right brain function. This is how most very
successful individuals function.
As you free yourself from negative, limiting beliefs and behaviors
you program yourself for success. Any message repeated often enough,
especially during childhood, forms the seeds of deep rooted beliefs.
From infancy we have all been unconsciously “programmed”
by our parents, our teachers, siblings, the media and society, mostly
with good intentions however with poor results. For example, many
of us were told, “If you want to be successful in life, you
must do well in school.” A poor student who grows up believing
this has dismal prospects for the future. Yet we all know of poor
students who became extremely successful – such as Edison, Churchill
and Einstein! Don’t be a victim of other people’s programming,
program yourself!
The Silva Method is taught over two days. It’s possible for
students to see results in their lives immediately. One of the first
things that can be noticed is the ability to remain calm in what previously
were very stressful situations. The tools developed are ones that
can be used for the rest of your life and in using them become the
person who makes the decisions about your life. If you have been searching
for a course that teaches you to become the person you would like
to be the Silva Method may be that course.
