It might have been his intuition that first guided Jose Silva to recognize the value of the 10 cycles per second alpha brain wave frequency, but he soon found more scientific evidence to support his belief that it is extremely valuable.
Here is what he had to say about it:
Alpha functioning, by Jose Silva
When a person is taught to function at the correct brain frequency, the brain frequency that has been named "alpha" by scientists, the person can use the right brain hemisphere to be healthier, happier, and more successful.
Alpha covers a range between 7 and 14 cycles or Hertz per second - the vibration of the electrical energy of the brain. The center of Alpha would then be 10.5, but it is known as Alpha 10 cycles or Hertz per second.
Another area where this 10 Hertz Alpha is mentioned is in Astronomy. It has been said that the space formed between the earth and the ionosphere forms a resonating cavity pulsing magnetically at 10 Hertz per second. This magnetic pulsing energy is now considered a fundamental universal life producing energy.
In the human brain we find electricity, magnetism and chemistry. Experiments conducted with the 10 Hertz magnetic field has been proven to excite, to stimulate the atomic particles in matter.
When a person has learned to function consciously at a brain frequency of 10 Hertz, that person is in harmony with the universal energy in space.
When a person is in resonance with the universal energy in space, subatomic particles in the person's body chemistry are being stimulated, excited.
This excitation is passed on to the immune system who controls body chemistry, strengthening the immune system.
A person staying in harmony with universal energy for 15 minutes a day is therapeutic and healthy. When this is done it will maintain a person in good health.
When a person is sick, depending on the seriousness of the problem, one, two, and even three 15-minute sessions of mental exercises may be advised for healing.
Using the subconscious consciously
When a person is consciously functioning at 10 Hertz, at that time that person, beside being in resonance with universal energy, strengthening the immune system, that person can also use the information stored in the subconscious consciously.
Each brain hemisphere has a set of senses:
*The left has set of objective, physical, biological senses.
*The right has a set of subjective, spiritual senses.
The objective senses detect information and records it on the left brain hemisphere and records a duplicate in the right brain hemisphere.
The subjective senses sense information and records it on the right brain hemisphere, but no duplicate is transferred to the left brain hemisphere. This indicates that there is bound to be more problem solving information in the right brain than in the left.
People without the Silva Method training cannot use the information stored in the right brain, they consider that information to be in the subconscious.
Those who have learned to function consciously at 10 Hertz call that dimension the inner conscious, and they can use the information stored in the right brain hemisphere because for them it is not subconscious, meaning it is not beyond their reach.
This means that the right brain thinker has more information at his disposal for problem solving. A successful person is one who solves more problems and information is needed in problem solving.
The Silva Method is the instrument that helps humanity to transcend genius intelligence and move into the second phase of human development on this planet.
The Silva Method, Silva Life System and Silva Intuition Training - sharing these is a joy. It's so uplifting and rewarding to see people learn the skills and techniques, apply them in their lives and increase their fulfillment and happiness. I am privileged to work with Silva Graduates in a coaching relationship.

Have You Met 'The Winning Sage'?
What do you notice as you watch Helene talk about her wins.
Is it magic? No! As you listen, notice how she knows exactly what she desires. Notice her profound belief.
Desire Belief Expectation
"You can have anything you want provided you know what it is.
See yourself as having it.
If there's a delay in results don't be disappointed. Maybe you need to cultivate a little more patience and it's yours.
It's energy as it's got to come to you."
Friday, June 28, 2013
The following is copied from Nightingale-Conant's Insider Report published June 13, 2013.
Notice "Testimony of Evidence" (near the bottom) which is a report from Gary Chappell, President of NightingaleConant after taking the Silva training.
At the bottom is a short bio of Jose Silva.
With just a little practice anyone can enter a state of mind that improves human capability... a state of 'heightened awareness,' where anything is possible!
1. The Power of the Imagination The autonomic nervous system controls your pulse and your glands. But your imagination can also take control... you can choose what you will think about. And what you think about can change your physical body.
Imagination can cause you to age faster... or age more slowly... it can cause an ulcer... or heal an ulcer. Medical case histories are filled with stories of people who were literally scared to death. What would a coroner write on such a death report—"cause of death: imagination"?
Here is an interactive example of the power of the human mind: First, suspend your natural disbelief, just for a minute, while you try this exercise. It's easy and everyone can, do it. It will only take a few seconds.
First relax and take a deep breath and clear your mind; now use your imagination and try to clearly picture this in as much detail as possible:
You have a bright yellow, ripe lemon in the palm of your hand. Rub the skin of the fruit with your hands. Feel the texture. Smell it. Now pick up a sharp knife and slice slowly through the lemon. Juice squirts and runs out of the lemon onto your hand. Put a drop of juice on your finger and touch it to your tongue. Is it terribly sour?
For most people, just a simple little exercise like this will cause their mouth to water.
Doctors will tell you that mouth-watering is an involuntary reflex of the autonomic nervous system. Or, to put that in layman's terms, you can't physically control it. However, you can use your imagination to think of lemons... and that will do the trick.
Does it make you wonder... what else can the imagination control? It is vastly more powerful than most people realize.
We've all had the experience of preparing for something important; maybe a big speech, maybe calling a potential employer, client, or even a first date, when simply "imagining" what would happen caused our hearts to race and our palms to sweat.
We have known for a long time how powerful the imagination can be, but until recently few have dared to study it. Today, however, scientists in many health disciplines are looking into "relaxation and visualization" techniques. (The word "imagination" is more accurate than "visualization" because the most powerful visualization techniques, like the Silva Method, involve all of the senses, not just the "visual.")
2. How a Father's Love Led to this Brainpower Breakthrough Forty years ago, when José Silva began his groundbreaking research in this field, scientists would have laughed at the very idea of studying the imagination. Because José Silva had no formal educational training, he simply didn't know any better. Like the famous Wright brothers, his research was driven by passion, not by educational background.
A self-taught electronics expert, Silva was a pioneer in developing antenna systems in the early days of television. His vision and entrepreneurial spirit turned a small radio repair shop into a large, thriving electronics business.
His entry into the field of mind development started at first as an offshoot of his natural curiosity. While his days were filled with electronics, his nights were devoted to books on the subjects of psychology, hypnosis, and The "Success" Frequency parapsychology.
Then one day, a "lucky" misfortune occurred in the Silva household: His children brought home "F's" on their report cards from school.
In those days it was thought that I.Q. was something you were born with. Like eye color, you couldn't change it. José worried, as any parent would, that bad grades and other failures might become his children's lot in life. He decided to turn his full attention to helping them do better.
The question "Could it be possible to raise one's I.Q.?" started José on his historic quest into mind research.
He knew from his work with electronics that the ideal circuit was one with least resistance. If brain cells acted somehow like circuits, he reasoned, would it be possible to lower their resistance and thus make them more receptive to storing and receiving information?
Would the brain function more effectively if he could slow down the brain waves?
Using hypnosis techniques to quiet his children's minds, José Silva discovered that at lower brain-wave frequencies the brain did indeed receive and store more information. Under hypnosis, his children could remember fantastic amounts of information, such as dates, names, numbers, and other facts.
However, while hypnosis helped his children remember more, it did not contribute to better understanding. That problem is what led him to develop his famous mental training exercises.
His first sign of proof that this new system was working, much to his delight, was in his children's sharply improved grades.
We know today that José Silva's initial mind-development experiments were a landmark in the study of human consciousness.
He was the first person to prove that people can learn to function with awareness at the alpha and theta brain-wave frequencies. The medical and psychological establishments have since confirmed this finding with numerous experiments, of which biofeedback technology has been one of the most useful outcomes.
Other parents in Silva's neighborhood took notice of the Silva children's great improvements at school and asked José if he could teach their children. He accepted, and over the next 10 years of working with children, José developed what would become the basics of Silva Method training.
3. Alpha Levels and the Development of ESP A strange thing happened one evening at the Silva house. It was a normal week night, and José was working with his daughter Isabel on her schoolwork. She had relaxed and used her training to go into her alpha brain-wave level so that her father could begin quizzing her on her lessons. Suddenly, and quietly, the routine was momentously changed. As José formed a question in his mind, Isabel answered it. It was a question he had not yet spoken! Then she answered another, and another.
Could his daughter's brain, while in a relaxed state, somehow gain the power to act as a receiver of his thoughts? Did the brain have the equivalent of electronic components that were able to act as transmitters and receptors? It was the beginning of a period of experimentation and learning with alpha levels of consciousness that continues even to this day.
One of the most interesting of these studies came several years ago at the Stanford Research Institute in California. The research was called "The Distant Viewing Project." Two groups of volunteers who had experienced Silva Method training were chosen—one group in New York and the other in California. The West Coast group was given pads of paper and pencils, and without prior information, they were asked to make a sketch of what the New York volunteers were seeing at given moments. Meanwhile, the New York volunteers took Polaroid pictures and marked each one with a time and a date.
The drawings were later compared with the photos by an unbiased third group and judged either as a "hit" or a "miss."
Would you like to guess the percentage of drawings that contained hits? Your guess might be higher than it would have been before you started reading this report. But few people ever guess as high as the actual "hit ratio"... the Stanford Research Institute reported an 80 percent success ratio!
How were the volunteers in California communicating with the test subjects in New York? Were they communicating on a spiritual level? Or were they receiving what some researchers have called "psychotronic energy"?
Only through your own beliefs and experiences can you answer that question for yourself.
4. Using the Imagination to Control Outside Influences
Now that you understand a little about how the Silva Method was developed, let's return to an earlier question. Can your imagination control influences from outside the body? Many researchers at major medical centers believe it can. Many Silva alumni can tell you of their own successes.
A Silva Method Seminar graduate (Mike D., Chesterton, IN) used his training to control his allergies. He had suffered the effects of hayfever throughout his childhood and into his thirties. Anyone with an allergy knows that pollen and other allergens can be powerful outside influences!
After his Silva Method training, it seemed quite reasonable to him that if other people without hayfever could ignore the irritation of pollen, then so could he! He simply decided that he was tired of the swollen, itchy eyes, the asthma, and worst of all, the uncontrollable runny nose and sinus congestion. Using his training, he was able to imagine the symptoms away. And now late summer is his favorite time of the year!
Unbelievable! But you already know that you can make your saliva glands flow, heart race, and sweat glands open. You know that great actors can make their tear ducts cry on command. The glands that cause a runny nose are just as easy to control, if you know how.
Many of the relaxation and visualization techniques that are used in hospitals across America today are watered-down versions of the Silva Method. Doctors tend to teach only the most basic of these techniques over a one- or two- hour period. Instruction in the basic Silva Method Course spans two to four days; the audio version includes six hours of listening and at least twice that much time in recommended practice.
The Silva Method alpha-level training is a skill like any other—the more you practice, the better you get! In the audio program, you'll find plans for a 40-day self-training course that will help you form powerful healing abilities, as well as creative, intuitive, and clairvoyant skills.
Researchers at the University of Chicago Medical Center have used imagination techniques, similar to the Silva Method, to help children with asthma. And they've had outstanding success. They've shown that children can use these techniques to reverse the swelling of bronchial passages that can choke off their air supply, regardless of whether the asthma attack was brought on by stress or an outside influence—an allergen like pollen, dust, or pet hair.
Relaxation and visualization in conjunction with the care of a licensed physician has been tried successfully with heart disease, cancer, and a myriad of other diseases. Although some 40 years behind José Silva, medical science is discovering that healing can't take place without self-healing. Attaining the alpha level is the most powerful way to promote self-healing.
5. Imagination: A Right-Brain Activity It was Albert Einstein who said that most people use only 10 percent of their mental capacities. By implication he was saying that his brain was no different from anyone else's, that he had only learned to use more of it than other people. Our brains function as two halves, a Right Brain and a Left Brain—two brains with two very different functions and points of view. One of the most exciting things you'll find in your alpha level is the ability to listen to your Right Brain.
In normal waking consciousness, the Left Brain rules. It is logic, it is ego, it is the little voice inside your head that nags you and tells you that you can't possibly do this. The Left Brain helps you remember to balance your checkbook, brush your teeth, and take out the garbage.
It's the timekeeper. It is also your primary mode of functioning on a daily basis at work. It likes to understand the world one thing at a time in a proper order, using deductive reasoning. The Left Brain "can't see the forest for the trees."
The Right Brain, on the other hand, thinks globally. It is creative, intuitive, and instinctive. It is ruled by feelings and sensations. It understands everything all at once, in inexplicable leaps of faith.
The Right Brain allows baseball players to catch a fly ball without sitting down with a pencil to figure out force, trajectory, and wind speed. Outfielders see the bat hit the ball, and without stopping to think, they intuitively start running to the spot where it is going to fall.
If you ask great musicians to look at their fingers while they are playing, the music will invariably stop. At its best, music flows freely from the Right Brain. Great musicians learn how to put their Left Brains on hold while they play freely from their emotional Right Brain.
As you learn through The Silva Method how to go to your alpha level and work on a problem in your imagination, you will begin to discover the power of the Right Brain. Stress drifts away; time disappears; worry, negativity, and doubts are abandoned.
You enter a waking dream where everything is possible and you are in complete control. You feel intuitively what is right and wrong, and solutions to problems simply come to you.
This is precisely the way the world's most famous geniuses have described their own inspirations. Newton described how the theory of gravity came to him while resting under a tree. Max Planck, who invented the quantum theory of physics, said the theory just popped into his head while resting in a hot bath. Einstein liked to work on problems as he awoke from his afternoon naps.
Perhaps this ability to think clearly while experiencing a deep state of relaxation is what has separated geniuses from the rest us. But now, thanks to the work of José Silva, anyone can learn to do this!
If you had been Right-Brain educated, in addition to learning history and math, you would have done less passive learning and more experiential learning. You would have had classes like "Basic Creative Imagination" and "Enhancing Intuition, Instinct, and Inspiration." Both students and teachers would have talked less and done more.
You'd have studied telepathy, psychometry, and all sorts of other Right-Brain sensing experiences. Unfortunately, that is a whole realm of human potential that is left unstudied and unlearned.
6. Reprogramming Your Mind to Change Your Life
Psychologists say that the harder you try to break a habit, the more certain it is that you will fail! This seems paradoxical, and yet most of us have had this experience. What you think about generally becomes your reality. If you are constantly thinking about your bad habit, it will never leave your mind; it will never go away.
For the most part, people are very good at negative self-programming. Do you do this? When you get home from work, you plop down in an easy chair, take a deep breath, settle into a comfortable state of mind, and then start thinking about everything that went wrong during the day. If you go over in your mind everything that has gone wrong and everything that can go wrong, then what are you creating? You are reinforcing your troubles, deepening your problems, and prolonging your difficulties.
Parents, teachers, clergy, doctors, and bosses are very good at correcting what we do wrong. Few ever show us what is right. We internalize this type of teaching and use it on ourselves.
Now that you understand this, you're going to stop thinking about your problems and start thinking about solutions, right? If only it were that easy for you. The bad news is that you are programmed to think the way you already do.
The good news is that the alpha level is where basic programming can be developed for your mind. It is like the DOS, or system level, in a computer.
A good hypnotist can bring you to an alpha level and give you mental programs to follow. In a Las Vegas act, you can be asked to walk like a chicken—and you will! In therapy, a hypnotist can help you break habits, like smoking. But the strength of hypnotism is always limited by the willpower of the participant. No hypnotist can make you stop smoking if you don't truly want to stop.
By using a Silva Method technique called "The Mirror of the Mind," you can learn how to consciously enter your "programming level" and examine your own will, reason with yourself, come to understand yourself better, and change your mind forever!
No other system is more powerful for helping you:
lose weight
quit smoking
stop procrastinating
change eating habits
stop abusing alcohol or other drugs
break negative emotional patterns and
create new patterns for success
Nightingale Conant has "bottled" the life-transforming Silva workshop into an easy-to-use audio program.
Now, teaching you to use more of your brain is really what The Silva Method audio self-study course is all about.
Because no other system gives you the tools to control your mental programming and your own destiny like The Silva Method.
Whatever you do, you'll do better, because you have awakened the genius within you! With The Silva Method, you'll believe that you have finally found the "User's Manual" that never came with your own amazing human brain.
The Silva Method is simply a skill that allows you to take control of your own mind... and the human mind is the most powerful force on earth.
In taking conscious control, you have the key that opens up every other possibility in your life!
The Silva Method audio program teaches you the skill of mind control at the alpha level-a process that is simple, sequential, and as natural as resting in an easy chair. Once you have learned it, and gained full control of this mental ability, you'll find that the new power you control will be... mind-boggling.
After listening to just the first three sessions, you'll already have learned how to enter the alpha level. You'll be surprised at how easy it is to do. Laura Silva, a veteran Silva trainer and José's daughter, and Robert B. Stone will be your guide, leading you step-by-step through all of the programming sessions.
When you start your Silva training, you can decide what areas interest you most.
Whether you want to:
improve your I.Q. and memory,
develop your creativity and intuition,
work on healing and self-healing techniques,
program yourself to break habits,
or practice success skills,
you'll discover that The Silva Method is a tool for total mind development!
You'll also find that The Silva Method is incredibly relaxing and refreshing. Every Silva session is like the perfect cat nap! You come out of the alpha level feeling more energetic and more focused for whatever the rest of your day brings you.
For most Silva graduates, the stress-relieving benefits of the Silva Method alone are worth the effort of learning it and practicing it on a daily basis.
And because the mind is such a powerful tool to develop you'll have your own amazing experiences in your alpha level. Anyone who has taken this course can tell you stories that simply defy explanation. Once you learn to tap the power of your mind, you'll discover hidden talents that are, frankly, difficult to explain.
7. Testimony of Evidence A special message from our President
Dear Enlightened Skeptic,
When I first heard about the Silva Method, I was skeptical. I expect you may be too. After all, there are some pretty amazing findings in the report above: enhanced creativity, IQ, clairvoyance, healing, self-control... that's a lot to believe.
My role here at Nightingale-Conant used to include screening new product ideas. So, I was given the opportunity to attend a Silva Method Seminar—just one of the perks of the greatest job on earth!
I attend dozens of workshops and seminars each year, but very few ever become Nightingale-Conant audio programs. I hear so many "pitches" for new products that I'm probably even more skeptical than you are.
Before I believe anything, I expect people to prove it to ME!
My experiences in the Silva Method Seminar did just that. In fact, the seminar shattered many of my preconceptions about the human mind. Frankly, I was "blown away" by what I myself accomplished in this training program. One exercise in particular proved to me the existence of ESP, not just because I did it successfully but because everyone else in the workshop did, too!
Briefly, this is what happened: I was given the names of three people to envision and told that they had a physical ailment. I was not told their age or what the ailment was... it could have been anything from an allergy to a brain tumor. I had to pinpoint the ailment using only my mind. As I was trained to do, I relaxed into my "alpha level" and went to my "imaginary workshop" (two Silva techniques), and I tried to imagine these people one at a time. A "vision" came to me about the first person on my list, and I found myself saying aloud, "He has migraine headaches." I was exactly right, and I went on to correctly name the next two as well! Our class was 83% right in this exercise.
This exercise is not just a "parlor trick" because the Silva Method teaches you to send these people "healing energy." You learn to use this technique to help yourself and others. From personal experience, I've come to believe it works.
Now, it's my turn to show you. I'm so confident in the power of the Silva Method that I believe it is should be in your library of life-changing programs. Please accept my offer to try the audio program The Silva Method at a discounted price. I want you to have an opportunity similar to the one I was given: the chance to experience this remarkable experience for yourself.
Warmest regards,
Gary Chappell
President, Nightingale Conant
8. Biography — José Silva
The name José Silva has become a byword in the mind-development field. In 1944, he began his seminal research into what has subsequently become the Silva Method. His discoveries regarding the potential of the human mind have had untold influence on millions of people worldwide.
Though he never attended school a day in his life, this self-educated man set out on an odyssey of scientific research that led him to become, without diplomas or certificates, one of the most creative scholars of his age. He was director of five corporations and the holder of several patents.
José Silva was an active Silva trainer, bestselling author, and respected scientist and biofeedback authority. His techniques, based on his breakthrough discoveries regarding human intelligence and the alpha frequencies of the brain, are being taught in 29 languages in 103 countries around the world.
The Silva Method has been accepted by countless educators, students, and business professionals. It remains a source of study and examination by world leaders in many fields for the growth of humankind.
Notice "Testimony of Evidence" (near the bottom) which is a report from Gary Chappell, President of NightingaleConant after taking the Silva training.
At the bottom is a short bio of Jose Silva.
With just a little practice anyone can enter a state of mind that improves human capability... a state of 'heightened awareness,' where anything is possible!
1. The Power of the Imagination The autonomic nervous system controls your pulse and your glands. But your imagination can also take control... you can choose what you will think about. And what you think about can change your physical body.

Doctors will tell you that mouth-watering is an involuntary reflex of the autonomic nervous system. Or, to put that in layman's terms, you can't physically control it. However, you can use your imagination to think of lemons... and that will do the trick.
Does it make you wonder... what else can the imagination control? It is vastly more powerful than most people realize.
We've all had the experience of preparing for something important; maybe a big speech, maybe calling a potential employer, client, or even a first date, when simply "imagining" what would happen caused our hearts to race and our palms to sweat.
But can the imagination control influences
from outside the body? The answer is yes!
We have known for a long time how powerful the imagination can be, but until recently few have dared to study it. Today, however, scientists in many health disciplines are looking into "relaxation and visualization" techniques. (The word "imagination" is more accurate than "visualization" because the most powerful visualization techniques, like the Silva Method, involve all of the senses, not just the "visual.")

However, while hypnosis helped his children remember more, it did not contribute to better understanding. That problem is what led him to develop his famous mental training exercises.
He created specific exercises that his children could use to quiet their minds and lower their brain rhythms. They could do this without losing consciousness (as in sleep),
and without losing conscious control (as in hypnosis).
His first sign of proof that this new system was working, much to his delight, was in his children's sharply improved grades.
We know today that José Silva's initial mind-development experiments were a landmark in the study of human consciousness.
He was the first person to prove that people can learn to function with awareness at the alpha and theta brain-wave frequencies. The medical and psychological establishments have since confirmed this finding with numerous experiments, of which biofeedback technology has been one of the most useful outcomes.
Other parents in Silva's neighborhood took notice of the Silva children's great improvements at school and asked José if he could teach their children. He accepted, and over the next 10 years of working with children, José developed what would become the basics of Silva Method training.
3. Alpha Levels and the Development of ESP A strange thing happened one evening at the Silva house. It was a normal week night, and José was working with his daughter Isabel on her schoolwork. She had relaxed and used her training to go into her alpha brain-wave level so that her father could begin quizzing her on her lessons. Suddenly, and quietly, the routine was momentously changed. As José formed a question in his mind, Isabel answered it. It was a question he had not yet spoken! Then she answered another, and another.
She was reading his mind!
Could his daughter's brain, while in a relaxed state, somehow gain the power to act as a receiver of his thoughts? Did the brain have the equivalent of electronic components that were able to act as transmitters and receptors? It was the beginning of a period of experimentation and learning with alpha levels of consciousness that continues even to this day.
One of the most interesting of these studies came several years ago at the Stanford Research Institute in California. The research was called "The Distant Viewing Project." Two groups of volunteers who had experienced Silva Method training were chosen—one group in New York and the other in California. The West Coast group was given pads of paper and pencils, and without prior information, they were asked to make a sketch of what the New York volunteers were seeing at given moments. Meanwhile, the New York volunteers took Polaroid pictures and marked each one with a time and a date.
The drawings were later compared with the photos by an unbiased third group and judged either as a "hit" or a "miss."
Would you like to guess the percentage of drawings that contained hits? Your guess might be higher than it would have been before you started reading this report. But few people ever guess as high as the actual "hit ratio"... the Stanford Research Institute reported an 80 percent success ratio!
How were the volunteers in California communicating with the test subjects in New York? Were they communicating on a spiritual level? Or were they receiving what some researchers have called "psychotronic energy"?
Only through your own beliefs and experiences can you answer that question for yourself.
4. Using the Imagination to Control Outside Influences
Now that you understand a little about how the Silva Method was developed, let's return to an earlier question. Can your imagination control influences from outside the body? Many researchers at major medical centers believe it can. Many Silva alumni can tell you of their own successes.
A Silva Method Seminar graduate (Mike D., Chesterton, IN) used his training to control his allergies. He had suffered the effects of hayfever throughout his childhood and into his thirties. Anyone with an allergy knows that pollen and other allergens can be powerful outside influences!
After his Silva Method training, it seemed quite reasonable to him that if other people without hayfever could ignore the irritation of pollen, then so could he! He simply decided that he was tired of the swollen, itchy eyes, the asthma, and worst of all, the uncontrollable runny nose and sinus congestion. Using his training, he was able to imagine the symptoms away. And now late summer is his favorite time of the year!
Unbelievable! But you already know that you can make your saliva glands flow, heart race, and sweat glands open. You know that great actors can make their tear ducts cry on command. The glands that cause a runny nose are just as easy to control, if you know how.
Many of the relaxation and visualization techniques that are used in hospitals across America today are watered-down versions of the Silva Method. Doctors tend to teach only the most basic of these techniques over a one- or two- hour period. Instruction in the basic Silva Method Course spans two to four days; the audio version includes six hours of listening and at least twice that much time in recommended practice.
The Silva Method alpha-level training is a skill like any other—the more you practice, the better you get! In the audio program, you'll find plans for a 40-day self-training course that will help you form powerful healing abilities, as well as creative, intuitive, and clairvoyant skills.
Understand that relaxation and visualization techniques
are on the cutting edge of medical research today.
Researchers at the University of Chicago Medical Center have used imagination techniques, similar to the Silva Method, to help children with asthma. And they've had outstanding success. They've shown that children can use these techniques to reverse the swelling of bronchial passages that can choke off their air supply, regardless of whether the asthma attack was brought on by stress or an outside influence—an allergen like pollen, dust, or pet hair.
Relaxation and visualization in conjunction with the care of a licensed physician has been tried successfully with heart disease, cancer, and a myriad of other diseases. Although some 40 years behind José Silva, medical science is discovering that healing can't take place without self-healing. Attaining the alpha level is the most powerful way to promote self-healing.
5. Imagination: A Right-Brain Activity It was Albert Einstein who said that most people use only 10 percent of their mental capacities. By implication he was saying that his brain was no different from anyone else's, that he had only learned to use more of it than other people. Our brains function as two halves, a Right Brain and a Left Brain—two brains with two very different functions and points of view. One of the most exciting things you'll find in your alpha level is the ability to listen to your Right Brain.
In normal waking consciousness, the Left Brain rules. It is logic, it is ego, it is the little voice inside your head that nags you and tells you that you can't possibly do this. The Left Brain helps you remember to balance your checkbook, brush your teeth, and take out the garbage.
It's the timekeeper. It is also your primary mode of functioning on a daily basis at work. It likes to understand the world one thing at a time in a proper order, using deductive reasoning. The Left Brain "can't see the forest for the trees."
The Right Brain, on the other hand, thinks globally. It is creative, intuitive, and instinctive. It is ruled by feelings and sensations. It understands everything all at once, in inexplicable leaps of faith.
The Right Brain allows baseball players to catch a fly ball without sitting down with a pencil to figure out force, trajectory, and wind speed. Outfielders see the bat hit the ball, and without stopping to think, they intuitively start running to the spot where it is going to fall.
If you ask great musicians to look at their fingers while they are playing, the music will invariably stop. At its best, music flows freely from the Right Brain. Great musicians learn how to put their Left Brains on hold while they play freely from their emotional Right Brain.
As you learn through The Silva Method how to go to your alpha level and work on a problem in your imagination, you will begin to discover the power of the Right Brain. Stress drifts away; time disappears; worry, negativity, and doubts are abandoned.
You enter a waking dream where everything is possible and you are in complete control. You feel intuitively what is right and wrong, and solutions to problems simply come to you.
This is precisely the way the world's most famous geniuses have described their own inspirations. Newton described how the theory of gravity came to him while resting under a tree. Max Planck, who invented the quantum theory of physics, said the theory just popped into his head while resting in a hot bath. Einstein liked to work on problems as he awoke from his afternoon naps.
Perhaps this ability to think clearly while experiencing a deep state of relaxation is what has separated geniuses from the rest us. But now, thanks to the work of José Silva, anyone can learn to do this!
If you had been Right-Brain educated, in addition to learning history and math, you would have done less passive learning and more experiential learning. You would have had classes like "Basic Creative Imagination" and "Enhancing Intuition, Instinct, and Inspiration." Both students and teachers would have talked less and done more.
You'd have studied telepathy, psychometry, and all sorts of other Right-Brain sensing experiences. Unfortunately, that is a whole realm of human potential that is left unstudied and unlearned.
The Silva Method gives you the training you
need to begin restoring your lost,
but not
forgotten, God-given powers of imagination.
6. Reprogramming Your Mind to Change Your Life
Psychologists say that the harder you try to break a habit, the more certain it is that you will fail! This seems paradoxical, and yet most of us have had this experience. What you think about generally becomes your reality. If you are constantly thinking about your bad habit, it will never leave your mind; it will never go away.
For the most part, people are very good at negative self-programming. Do you do this? When you get home from work, you plop down in an easy chair, take a deep breath, settle into a comfortable state of mind, and then start thinking about everything that went wrong during the day. If you go over in your mind everything that has gone wrong and everything that can go wrong, then what are you creating? You are reinforcing your troubles, deepening your problems, and prolonging your difficulties.
Parents, teachers, clergy, doctors, and bosses are very good at correcting what we do wrong. Few ever show us what is right. We internalize this type of teaching and use it on ourselves.
You can learn to break lifelong
habits, almost effortlessly!
Now that you understand this, you're going to stop thinking about your problems and start thinking about solutions, right? If only it were that easy for you. The bad news is that you are programmed to think the way you already do.
The good news is that the alpha level is where basic programming can be developed for your mind. It is like the DOS, or system level, in a computer.
A good hypnotist can bring you to an alpha level and give you mental programs to follow. In a Las Vegas act, you can be asked to walk like a chicken—and you will! In therapy, a hypnotist can help you break habits, like smoking. But the strength of hypnotism is always limited by the willpower of the participant. No hypnotist can make you stop smoking if you don't truly want to stop.
There's an axiom in psychology that says when
the will and the imagination are in conflict,
the imagination always wins.
By using a Silva Method technique called "The Mirror of the Mind," you can learn how to consciously enter your "programming level" and examine your own will, reason with yourself, come to understand yourself better, and change your mind forever!
No other system is more powerful for helping you:
lose weight
quit smoking
stop procrastinating
change eating habits
stop abusing alcohol or other drugs
break negative emotional patterns and
create new patterns for success
Nightingale Conant has "bottled" the life-transforming Silva workshop into an easy-to-use audio program.
Now, teaching you to use more of your brain is really what The Silva Method audio self-study course is all about.
Because no other system gives you the tools to control your mental programming and your own destiny like The Silva Method.
Whatever you do, you'll do better, because you have awakened the genius within you! With The Silva Method, you'll believe that you have finally found the "User's Manual" that never came with your own amazing human brain.
The Silva Method is simply a skill that allows you to take control of your own mind... and the human mind is the most powerful force on earth.
In taking conscious control, you have the key that opens up every other possibility in your life!
The Silva Method audio program teaches you the skill of mind control at the alpha level-a process that is simple, sequential, and as natural as resting in an easy chair. Once you have learned it, and gained full control of this mental ability, you'll find that the new power you control will be... mind-boggling.
After listening to just the first three sessions, you'll already have learned how to enter the alpha level. You'll be surprised at how easy it is to do. Laura Silva, a veteran Silva trainer and José's daughter, and Robert B. Stone will be your guide, leading you step-by-step through all of the programming sessions.
When you start your Silva training, you can decide what areas interest you most.
Whether you want to:
improve your I.Q. and memory,
develop your creativity and intuition,
work on healing and self-healing techniques,
program yourself to break habits,
or practice success skills,
you'll discover that The Silva Method is a tool for total mind development!
You'll also find that The Silva Method is incredibly relaxing and refreshing. Every Silva session is like the perfect cat nap! You come out of the alpha level feeling more energetic and more focused for whatever the rest of your day brings you.
For most Silva graduates, the stress-relieving benefits of the Silva Method alone are worth the effort of learning it and practicing it on a daily basis.
And because the mind is such a powerful tool to develop you'll have your own amazing experiences in your alpha level. Anyone who has taken this course can tell you stories that simply defy explanation. Once you learn to tap the power of your mind, you'll discover hidden talents that are, frankly, difficult to explain.
7. Testimony of Evidence A special message from our President
Dear Enlightened Skeptic,
When I first heard about the Silva Method, I was skeptical. I expect you may be too. After all, there are some pretty amazing findings in the report above: enhanced creativity, IQ, clairvoyance, healing, self-control... that's a lot to believe.
My role here at Nightingale-Conant used to include screening new product ideas. So, I was given the opportunity to attend a Silva Method Seminar—just one of the perks of the greatest job on earth!
I attend dozens of workshops and seminars each year, but very few ever become Nightingale-Conant audio programs. I hear so many "pitches" for new products that I'm probably even more skeptical than you are.
Before I believe anything, I expect people to prove it to ME!
My experiences in the Silva Method Seminar did just that. In fact, the seminar shattered many of my preconceptions about the human mind. Frankly, I was "blown away" by what I myself accomplished in this training program. One exercise in particular proved to me the existence of ESP, not just because I did it successfully but because everyone else in the workshop did, too!
Briefly, this is what happened: I was given the names of three people to envision and told that they had a physical ailment. I was not told their age or what the ailment was... it could have been anything from an allergy to a brain tumor. I had to pinpoint the ailment using only my mind. As I was trained to do, I relaxed into my "alpha level" and went to my "imaginary workshop" (two Silva techniques), and I tried to imagine these people one at a time. A "vision" came to me about the first person on my list, and I found myself saying aloud, "He has migraine headaches." I was exactly right, and I went on to correctly name the next two as well! Our class was 83% right in this exercise.
This exercise is not just a "parlor trick" because the Silva Method teaches you to send these people "healing energy." You learn to use this technique to help yourself and others. From personal experience, I've come to believe it works.
Now, it's my turn to show you. I'm so confident in the power of the Silva Method that I believe it is should be in your library of life-changing programs. Please accept my offer to try the audio program The Silva Method at a discounted price. I want you to have an opportunity similar to the one I was given: the chance to experience this remarkable experience for yourself.
Warmest regards,
Gary Chappell
President, Nightingale Conant
8. Biography — José Silva
The name José Silva has become a byword in the mind-development field. In 1944, he began his seminal research into what has subsequently become the Silva Method. His discoveries regarding the potential of the human mind have had untold influence on millions of people worldwide.
Though he never attended school a day in his life, this self-educated man set out on an odyssey of scientific research that led him to become, without diplomas or certificates, one of the most creative scholars of his age. He was director of five corporations and the holder of several patents.
José Silva was an active Silva trainer, bestselling author, and respected scientist and biofeedback authority. His techniques, based on his breakthrough discoveries regarding human intelligence and the alpha frequencies of the brain, are being taught in 29 languages in 103 countries around the world.
The Silva Method has been accepted by countless educators, students, and business professionals. It remains a source of study and examination by world leaders in many fields for the growth of humankind.

Mental Housecleaning
"Language shapes our behavior and each word we use is imbued with multitudes of personal meaning. The right words spoken in the right way can bring us love, money and respect, while the wrong words-or even the right words spoken in the wrong way-can lead to a country to war. We must carefully orchestrate our speech if we want to achieve our goals and bring our dreams to fruition."
-Dr. Andrew Newberg, Words Can Change Your Brain
The Silva Method changed my life - for the better and better and better than I ever thought possible. 'Mental Housecleaning' was probably more important to that change - and continuing growth - as any individual technique.
Why? Because I found that by paying attention to the words and phrases I use, I become aware of the underlying thinking process ... my beliefs, my perspectives, my overall attitude about life.
As I become aware of those underlying thoughts and beliefs I am empowered to change myself. The knowledge allows me to accept or reject what had previously been unthinking, automatic.
As I listen to my words, what I'm saying, I sometimes hear things that surprise me. Yes, I know, I said those words but I may be startled because they're coming from deep-rooted beliefs and thinking patterns I'm not even aware are there!
When I identify a previously 'unknown' way of thinking, I'm then empowered to accept or change it. How? By using Cancel Cancel and then deliberately choosing new words which are appropriate to the situation and match the way I choose to believe, think and act.
By doing this consistently ... yes, sometimes I 'slip' ... I'm re-training my mind in a conscious, deliberate way.
Tony Robbins calls this 'Transformational Vocabulary'. Jose Silva called it 'Mental Housecleaning'.
I call it Empowerment!

Significant Events in Jose Silva's Research
In this article, Jose Silva recalls some of the significant events in his research, such as being the first person to ever demonstrate in a scientific laboratory that people could learn to actually control their brain waves.
At the time scientists thought it was impossible. They were so impressed that they published an article about it in a scientific journal.
by Jose Silva
After reading about Sigmund Freud and the work he had done, we began to search for ways to help our children get better grades in school, and be more successful in all of their activities.
We began to seek ways to improve their minds. As we had success with this, we began to search for the specific factors that were producing the positive results.
In order to help us determine exactly what was going on that was leading to success, we set up projects in the following manner:
Problems were presented to subjects while they were connected to an EEG with a digital counter in the output.
We were training them with various mental exercises, including hypnosis in the beginning. Later we abandoned that for superior methods.
Some subjects, while trying to analyze and answer the problem question, would cause the digital counter on the EEG to indicate 10 cycles per second frequency.
However, the majority would indicate 20 cps while doing the same thing - attempting to analyze and answer the problem question.
This attracted our attention since the average brain frequency range of humans is between 1 and 20 cps.
We observed that when people enter normal, natural, deep sleep, the sleep-and-dream, cycles indicate a movement between 1 and 20 cps on the average.
However, when people are awake, the average brain frequency is 20 cps.
So it seemed unusual to us to observe that approximately 10 percent of our subjects would cause a 10 cps output when analyzing and solving problems.
Since 10 cps is the center of the normal brain frequency range, we began to call those people who did
their thinking at 10 cps "centered thinkers" and those who did their thinking at 20 cps "eccentric thinkers."
We then realized that our mental training exercises were teaching our subjects to learn to control their brain
waves consciously.
At the time, university scientists were saying that it was impossible for people to consciously control their brain wave activity. They challenged us to prove it at the University of Texas Medical School and also at Trinity
University, both in San Antonio, Texas.
We were successful in showing them that our trained subjects could enter the alpha level at will and could even activate their minds while at the alpha level, so as to analyze and solve problems. These results were published in a scientific journal in England in 1972.
Since then, it has become accepted knowledge that people can learn to consciously activate their minds at the 10 cps alpha frequency as well as at 20 cps beta.
People receive many benefits when they function consciously at 10 cps alpha.
*We have observed that they are healthier because they rarely get sick with psychosomatic health problems.
*They are safer because their intuition functions at this level and they rarely get into accidents
*One of the most outstanding benefits of being a 10 cycle thinker is that you can use your intuition at that
level, and can be more times right than wrong when making decisions, which leads to greater success in life.
All of these factors contribute to people being more successful in life.
We always believed that the 10 cycle alpha level would be the ideal level to solve any kind of problems, especially since the alpha level is the strongest, the level with the least impedance to neuron discharge, and the most synchronous. Thinking should be faster, thoughts and ideas should be more clear, and insight should be better.
Despite all of the benefits that were being received by people who used our method, some people were concerned that borderline psychotic patients could be thrown into psychosis when entering the 10 cycle alpha level.
In order to demonstrate that even borderline psychotic patients would not be harmed in any way, we set up a test project with a team of psychiatrists, Dr. Clancy McKenzie, and his associate Dr. Lance Wright.
At first they proceeded very cautiously, sending only one patient at a time and monitoring that patient very
closely.
Eventually they began to send groups of patients.
Finally Dr. McKenzie decided that they should recommend that all of their patients use our method to
learn to enter the 10 cycle alpha level, and use our techniques for problem solving.
Dr. McKenzie reported that none of their patients became psychotic or was harmed in any way, and virtually
all improved. He has provided us with many reports of patients using the alpha level to gain insight and, as a
result of this insight, having tremendous breakthrough and dramatically shortening their recovery time.
He has written of many patients who programmed themselves at the alpha level to have a dream that contains
information to help them correct their problems. When they gain insight on their own in this manner, they readily accept it and act on it, according to Dr. McKenzie. He said that he has found this to be one of the best ways for them to hasten their recovery.
Since that project was conducted, we have gone on to verify through many research projects that the Silva Method can help everyone who wants help and will use the techniques. We have conducted research and verified the many beneficial results with groups such as:
*High school students (Effects with Three High Schools).
*Alcoholics (The Alcoholic Study)
.
*Executives at a major corporation (RCA Records)
*Single mothers on welfare (The Ottawa County Project).
*Adolescent girls in a Catholic high school (Hallahan High).
*Average people (The Albuquerque Report).
*And of course mental patients (The Consciousness Movement and the Mental Patient).
The research confirmed that regardless of how much or how little success a person has had, they can achieve even more success by learning to activate their mind at 10 cycles alpha.
Now we no longer need to settle for only 10 percent of people being centered, and able to think at 10 cycles alpha, while 90 percent are eccentric, and think only at 20 cycles beta.
Now everyone can learn to center themselves at alpha, activate their mind and analyze and solve problems, and be more successful in life.
What we have accomplished is to convert the sub-conscious into what we call the inner-conscious level.
Now everyone can learn to use the sub-conscious, consciously.

Unique Ways that Human Beings Function
In this article, Jose Silva delves into his research to help us understand the unique ways that human beings function.
by Jose Silva
Here's a short quiz:
Why is your body like a radio?
Because both are communications devices.
Your body radiates energy, called an aura, just as a radio station radiates electromagnetic waves that carry a radio program.
I spent much of my life repairing radios and other electronic equipment. When I began to learn about the human mind and the body's aura, my experience with electronics came in very handy.
It helped me to understand some of the ways that we communicate, ways that most people don't yet fully understand.
Your body is a much more sophisticated communications station than a radio transmitter. You can communicate with:
*Words
*The tone and inflection of your voice
*Your eyes
*Your body language
*Your hands
*Your aura
*Your mind
The first six kinds of communication that we've listed here are limited by time and space. People have to be able to hear you or see you, or be within range of your aura.
The seventh kind of communication - your mind and your psychic ability - has no limits, as far as we know. You can communicate with anyone, anywhere, instantly, with your mind.
There are plenty of books and courses to help you with the first five types of communication.
Now, I want to talk about the other two.
YOUR AURA
The human body radiates seven energy fields. The combined energy fields are called the human aura.
The human aura is modulated by brain activity.
To modulate means to change, to alter in some way.
A radio transmitter transmits a "carrier signal."
The information to be transmitted - the announcer's voice, for instance, or the music being played - is combined with the carrier signal and alters the carrier signal.
The radio that receives this combined signal then strips away the carrier signal and is left with only the information that was added to it.
Your aura is modulated by your brain activity. Your brain is modulated by thoughts. Every thought that you have alters - modulates - your aura.
YOUR AURA PENETRATES AND ALTERS MATTER
The objective part of your aura radiates out about eight meters - about 25 feet - from your body. Anyone within that range can detect your aura.
That's why, when a person who is very upset comes into a room, you can "feel" their presence even before you see them or hear them.
You can influence people around you by your own thoughts. If you are happy and at peace, your aura will reflect this, and will tend to influence other people's auras to be happy and peaceful.
The aura energy penetrates both inanimate and animate matter, causing an alteration in matter.
*Inanimate matter retains the alteration.
*Animate matter continues to evolve in an altered state.
THOUGHT MODULATION
There are several different frequencies that the brain operate on:
*Beta, the outer conscious level, which is ideal for taking action in the physical world.
*Alpha, the inner conscious level (formerly the sub-conscious), the strongest, most rhythmic frequency, ideal for thinking.
*Theta, a lower frequency.
*Delta, associated with deep sleep.
Thinking modulates the brain at various frequencies: the beta brain wave frequencies, and also at the lower alpha brain wave frequencies.
*The energy transmitted when thought modulates the brain at the beta frequency is limited by distance. This energy, a physical energy, can be used either to help or to harm. It can attract animate matter back to normal, or force matter into an abnormal condition.
This is what happens when a psychic bends a spoon: The normal is changed to the abnormal, through the use of the physical part of the body's aura radiation. That's why we don't teach or practice spoon bending in the Silva Method; we prefer to change the abnormal to the normal.
*When thoughts modulate the brain at the alpha frequency, then distance is no barrier. When doing this, you can help, but you cannot harm. You can change the abnormal back to the normal, but you cannot change the normal to the abnormal with this subjective, spiritual (non-physical) energy.
It takes physical energy to cause physical harm, to change the normal to the abnormal. Physical energy works by repulsion.
Spiritual energy cannot exert force against physics. Spiritual energy can only work through attraction. It attracts animate matter to return to a normal condition, to conform to the original spiritual blueprint for that particular object.
The modulation is stronger when thought is accompanied by imagination.
The most effective programming is done when thought, accompanied by imagination, modulates the brain at the alpha level, where there is the most energy, and where distance is no barrier.
EXAMINING THE AURA
The human aura is made up of seven fields of energy:
The first is spiritual, the genetic, which is controlled 99 percent by the "other side," from the
spiritual dimension. The next three: sub-atomic, atomic, and part of the molecular, are controlled from the right brain hemisphere. However, the molecular evolves into the physical, and is partially controlled by the left brain hemisphere.
The final three: cells, organs, and organ systems, are controlled from the left brain hemisphere.
In order to live a normal life, the way God intended, we must learn to control the energy fields correctly, that is, we must use the right brain hemisphere appropriately.
SOLVING PROBLEMS
Most people, approximately 90 percent, cannot use their right brain hemisphere to think with.
In the Silva Method, everyone learns, with just a few hours of training, how to think with their right brain hemisphere, at the alpha level, and then take action at the beta brain wave level, using the left brain hemisphere.
Once you have access to both sides of your brain, and you have learned how to activate your mind while remaining at the alpha level, then you have tremendous programming capability.
Your thoughts will modulate your aura, so that everyone around you is influenced in a positive direction. This will make your life much easier.
And you are also able to project your thoughts great distances, through the use of the right brain hemisphere, so that you can influence people and events that are not in your physical presence.
BY CHANCE OR BY CHOICE?
Your aura is automatically influencing people around you, whether you know it or not.
The question is: What kind of influence is it?
What kind of people do you attract into your life?
This can give you an idea of what kind of message you are putting out through your aura.
A big portion of the attraction between male and female comes through the aura.
Have you ever met a person of the opposite sex and immediately felt attracted to them, even though at first glance they would not seem to be your type? This happens to most people. It is the influence of the aura.
When you meet the right person, you know it immediately, because of the way you feel. This is the
influence of the two auras coming together in a certain way.
Once the boy and girl start dating each other, their auras begin a process of trying to alter the other person's aura. Eventually, both are altered a certain amount, until they are equal and in harmony with each other.
That's why it is important for couples to stay physically close to each other. They should sleep in the same bed.
If one person starts seeing another person, then their aura changes, and it is no longer in complete harmony with their original partner's aura. Then the original partners grow apart.
When you learn to function at the alpha level with the Silva Method techniques, you become more sensitive both at detecting information that can affect your life, and in programming to correct problems.
Unfortunately, 90 percent of the people on the planet live their lives more by chance than by choice. They hope that good things happen to them, but all too often they don't.
People who use both brain hemispheres have the ability to take greater control over their own lives, and to be healthier, happier, and more successful.
If you are not one of the fortunate ten percent who are "naturals," you need not despair. Simply take the Silva Method training and practice the techniques and you will be able to do all that the naturals can do...and probably even more.
It is how God intended us to live - using all of the equipment that we were given, using both brain hemispheres, using both the beta and the alpha levels consciously, to detect information and to correct problems.

Here's a short quiz:
Why is your body like a radio?
Because both are communications devices.
Your body radiates energy, called an aura, just as a radio station radiates electromagnetic waves that carry a radio program.
I spent much of my life repairing radios and other electronic equipment. When I began to learn about the human mind and the body's aura, my experience with electronics came in very handy.
It helped me to understand some of the ways that we communicate, ways that most people don't yet fully understand.
Your body is a much more sophisticated communications station than a radio transmitter. You can communicate with:
*Words
*The tone and inflection of your voice
*Your eyes
*Your body language
*Your hands
*Your aura
*Your mind
The first six kinds of communication that we've listed here are limited by time and space. People have to be able to hear you or see you, or be within range of your aura.
The seventh kind of communication - your mind and your psychic ability - has no limits, as far as we know. You can communicate with anyone, anywhere, instantly, with your mind.
There are plenty of books and courses to help you with the first five types of communication.
Now, I want to talk about the other two.
YOUR AURA
The human body radiates seven energy fields. The combined energy fields are called the human aura.
The human aura is modulated by brain activity.
To modulate means to change, to alter in some way.
A radio transmitter transmits a "carrier signal."
The information to be transmitted - the announcer's voice, for instance, or the music being played - is combined with the carrier signal and alters the carrier signal.
The radio that receives this combined signal then strips away the carrier signal and is left with only the information that was added to it.
Your aura is modulated by your brain activity. Your brain is modulated by thoughts. Every thought that you have alters - modulates - your aura.
YOUR AURA PENETRATES AND ALTERS MATTER
The objective part of your aura radiates out about eight meters - about 25 feet - from your body. Anyone within that range can detect your aura.
That's why, when a person who is very upset comes into a room, you can "feel" their presence even before you see them or hear them.
You can influence people around you by your own thoughts. If you are happy and at peace, your aura will reflect this, and will tend to influence other people's auras to be happy and peaceful.
The aura energy penetrates both inanimate and animate matter, causing an alteration in matter.
*Inanimate matter retains the alteration.
*Animate matter continues to evolve in an altered state.
THOUGHT MODULATION
There are several different frequencies that the brain operate on:
*Beta, the outer conscious level, which is ideal for taking action in the physical world.
*Alpha, the inner conscious level (formerly the sub-conscious), the strongest, most rhythmic frequency, ideal for thinking.
*Theta, a lower frequency.
*Delta, associated with deep sleep.
Thinking modulates the brain at various frequencies: the beta brain wave frequencies, and also at the lower alpha brain wave frequencies.
*The energy transmitted when thought modulates the brain at the beta frequency is limited by distance. This energy, a physical energy, can be used either to help or to harm. It can attract animate matter back to normal, or force matter into an abnormal condition.
This is what happens when a psychic bends a spoon: The normal is changed to the abnormal, through the use of the physical part of the body's aura radiation. That's why we don't teach or practice spoon bending in the Silva Method; we prefer to change the abnormal to the normal.
*When thoughts modulate the brain at the alpha frequency, then distance is no barrier. When doing this, you can help, but you cannot harm. You can change the abnormal back to the normal, but you cannot change the normal to the abnormal with this subjective, spiritual (non-physical) energy.
It takes physical energy to cause physical harm, to change the normal to the abnormal. Physical energy works by repulsion.
Spiritual energy cannot exert force against physics. Spiritual energy can only work through attraction. It attracts animate matter to return to a normal condition, to conform to the original spiritual blueprint for that particular object.
The modulation is stronger when thought is accompanied by imagination.
The most effective programming is done when thought, accompanied by imagination, modulates the brain at the alpha level, where there is the most energy, and where distance is no barrier.
EXAMINING THE AURA
The human aura is made up of seven fields of energy:
The first is spiritual, the genetic, which is controlled 99 percent by the "other side," from the
spiritual dimension. The next three: sub-atomic, atomic, and part of the molecular, are controlled from the right brain hemisphere. However, the molecular evolves into the physical, and is partially controlled by the left brain hemisphere.
The final three: cells, organs, and organ systems, are controlled from the left brain hemisphere.
In order to live a normal life, the way God intended, we must learn to control the energy fields correctly, that is, we must use the right brain hemisphere appropriately.
SOLVING PROBLEMS
Most people, approximately 90 percent, cannot use their right brain hemisphere to think with.
In the Silva Method, everyone learns, with just a few hours of training, how to think with their right brain hemisphere, at the alpha level, and then take action at the beta brain wave level, using the left brain hemisphere.
Once you have access to both sides of your brain, and you have learned how to activate your mind while remaining at the alpha level, then you have tremendous programming capability.
Your thoughts will modulate your aura, so that everyone around you is influenced in a positive direction. This will make your life much easier.
And you are also able to project your thoughts great distances, through the use of the right brain hemisphere, so that you can influence people and events that are not in your physical presence.
BY CHANCE OR BY CHOICE?
Your aura is automatically influencing people around you, whether you know it or not.
The question is: What kind of influence is it?
What kind of people do you attract into your life?
This can give you an idea of what kind of message you are putting out through your aura.
A big portion of the attraction between male and female comes through the aura.
Have you ever met a person of the opposite sex and immediately felt attracted to them, even though at first glance they would not seem to be your type? This happens to most people. It is the influence of the aura.
When you meet the right person, you know it immediately, because of the way you feel. This is the
influence of the two auras coming together in a certain way.
Once the boy and girl start dating each other, their auras begin a process of trying to alter the other person's aura. Eventually, both are altered a certain amount, until they are equal and in harmony with each other.
That's why it is important for couples to stay physically close to each other. They should sleep in the same bed.
If one person starts seeing another person, then their aura changes, and it is no longer in complete harmony with their original partner's aura. Then the original partners grow apart.
When you learn to function at the alpha level with the Silva Method techniques, you become more sensitive both at detecting information that can affect your life, and in programming to correct problems.
Unfortunately, 90 percent of the people on the planet live their lives more by chance than by choice. They hope that good things happen to them, but all too often they don't.
People who use both brain hemispheres have the ability to take greater control over their own lives, and to be healthier, happier, and more successful.
If you are not one of the fortunate ten percent who are "naturals," you need not despair. Simply take the Silva Method training and practice the techniques and you will be able to do all that the naturals can do...and probably even more.
It is how God intended us to live - using all of the equipment that we were given, using both brain hemispheres, using both the beta and the alpha levels consciously, to detect information and to correct problems.

Jose Silva on Mind, Brain
Human Intelligence is what some people call Soul or Spirit.
Mind - a faculty of Human Intelligence (Soul or Spirit)
notice how he diferentiates between the two
Brain - a biological computer which can be programmed!
vibration, frequency which can be measured
This tells us the modulation of Mind/Brain.
You may choose to listen to this one more than once. Enjoy!

How to Be Your Own Psychic
In this article, Jose Silva urges us to stop paying commercial psychics when we are perfectly capable of doing it for ourselves.by Jose Silva
You don't need to pay a commercial psychic to tell you about your past.
You can learn to be your own psychic and make correct decisions for your future.
"Psychic hotlines" have become very popular in the United States, with hundreds of thousands of people every week paying almost $5 per minute to talk to the telephone psychics.
For a flat fee, you can probably find a local psychic that you can go see in person.
PSYCHIC AUTHORITY
We know both kinds. They call us here at Silva International because they know that we have conducted more research on psychics than anybody else, and more importantly, we understand the process so well that we can train anyone to be a psychic.
We've had telephone psychics admit to us that they often just listen and provide comfort to callers. Many times, the callers want an audience more than they want an answer.
When you sit down in front of any good commercial psychic, they can tune in to you and tell you about many of the things that have happened to you in the past.
The past has already been impressed on physics, so it is relatively easy to detect. In fact, in just one weekend of training, our Silva Method instructors teach large groups of people how to detect existing information.
But what about the future? After a commercial psychic has impressed you by mentioning several things from your past, can they provide you with reliable predictions of the future? Can they give you information that will help you make better decisions? Can you correct more problems after paying to consult with a commercial psychic?
PSYCHIC ACCURACY
If just one out of every five recommendations turns out to be helpful, that's just average. Anyone can do that - by luck alone.
If they can give you two correct recommendations for the future out of every five, then you know that they have gone beyond mere chance, and are actually using their psychic ability.
Good psychics can do even better than that. They will be correct three out of five times, or even four out of five times.
Think about that for a minute: Anybody who can make more correct decisions than incorrect ones is going to be very successful.
In fact, you can still be pretty successful if you just reach the first step and are correct two out of five times - twice the average of a non-psychic.
How can this be?
PROBLEM SOLVING
If you have the ability to determine quickly whether your decision was right or wrong, then you know how to proceed:
*You can reinforce the correct decisions and keep going.
*When the decision is wrong, you can stop whatever you are doing and try again.
In order to do this, you would have to consult the commercial psychic daily - maybe several times a day - to insure that you get information quickly enough to make the necessary adjustments.
This could get very expensive at $5 per minute, or $50 per sit-down session with a local psychic.
So why not do it yourself?
For a modest investment, anyone can take the Silva Method training and learn how to be a psychic. Guaranteed, or your money back.
You even get to try out your psychic ability during the final portion of the course. You detect health information with your mind about people that you have never met, and verify that you are correct!
Then, all you need to do is to practice in order to develop skill at detecting any kind of information that you need in order to correct problems.
Will this help you win the lottery? Probably not. It seems as though the creator gave us these abilities to use to correct problems and make the world a better place to live.
If winning some money is the best way to correct a specific problem, then you'll probably win some money. But something like this will come naturally - if it comes at all; we don't scheme and program for it to happen.
We program to correct a problem.
HOW IT IS DONE
We don't use our psychic ability for everything, of course. When your car is low on gasoline, that's a problem. The solution is to go to a gas station and put in some gasoline. Normally, you don't need anything extra to correct that problem.
But supposed when you get there, the gas station is closed. And the gas gauge is on empty.
Now you have a bigger problem.
You did what you normally do to take care of the situation, and it didn't work. Now you need to call on your psychic ability for extra help:
Which way should I go to find the nearest - open - gas station, so that I don't run out of gas and get stranded?
In situations like this, if you are right more times than you are wrong, you will be much better off.
If you are a parent and you encounter a problem with your child, you counsel them and solve the problem.
If your counseling doesn't solve the problem, then you use your psychic ability to gain more information so that you can do a better job.
Does this guarantee that you will correct the problem?
No, it doesn't. Even the best psychics are sometimes wrong. They may be right four out of five times, but this still leaves some times that they are wrong.
THE MOST VALUABLE PSYCHIC
If you are your own psychic, you will discover very quickly that your strategy is not working. Then, armed with this additional information, you will use your psychic ability again and you will probably come up with the correct answer.
If you have to wait until you can contact your commercial psychic, then at the very least, it will take longer to correct the problem. And during that time, the situation may get worse.
It is obvious that you will do better functioning as your own psychic than by going to a commercial psychic, even if the commercial psychic is more experienced than you are, and is correct more often then you are.
Your ability to use your psychic ability at any time you need it, to incorporate new information, and to make changes "on the fly" so to speak, is far more valuable to you and to your loved ones than the "expert" guidance of a commercial psychic.
That still doesn't guarantee that you'll solve that particular problem, of course. Everyone has free will. When you are dealing with other people, you cannot control what they do.
If we could control other people, this could lead to huge problems, with everybody trying to control everybody else. No, that just wouldn't work. We need everybody's efforts, everyone's ideas and input in order to correct the problems that the world faces.
A SIMPLE SOLUTION
If you want to improve your life, to be more in control of your own destiny, to be healthier, happier, and more successful, then there is a simple solution:
Attend the Silva Method Basic Lecture Series, or the new Silva UltraMind ESP System, to develop your psychic ability.
Then practice, practice, practice.
Correct problems whenever you become aware of them.
Not just your own problems, but any problems that you become aware of.
Use your psychic ability:
*first to obtain additional information so that you can make correct decisions, and
*second, to program - project your mind - and correct the problems that you detect.
It is easy. For an investment that is just a fraction of what people are paying commercial psychics for the limited help they can provide, you can attend the Silva Method training.
Then join with other Silva Method graduates to develop your ability by correcting problems, and make this a better world to live in.

How to Build Your Visualization Skill
So many people say that can't or don't "see" anything when they close their eyes and intend to use their visualization and imagination abilities. It comes up in virtually every class!
* Sometimes they say that it's "just dark or black in there". These people often benefit from 'turning on their interior light'. (Yes, it does work for some people!
* Other people improve their skill through memory recall: remember a recent important event ... like a birthday or anniversary ... then imagine something about it is different.
* This video highlights another method.
Which works best for you? Please leave your comment.

How to Change Your Frequency Using the Dial Method
Ever have the experience of needing to go somewhere...school, work, running errands, etc...and you feel sort of 'punk'. Certainly not depressed but maybe just a little 'blue'. Feeling a little lazy.
You're obviously not ill. (Or maybe you are feeling ill. See the * below.)
Then you make yourself go and discover that you don't feel nearly as punk as you felt earlier. You may actually have a good time!
What you've done - unconsciously - is increase your frequency, your vibration and by doing that you feel lots better!
Or maybe you're in a really bad mood, irritated, angry... Just this week I used the Dial Method to get out of that kind of mood. (The clerk would be very grateful if he knew!) Driving to the store I realized I was ready to bite nails! I also realized how icky I was feeling and I do NOT like that nor did I desire to dump that kind of feeling onto someone else.
As I used the Dial Method, a subtle smile began to form. I felt better. And better. And better!
Again, raising frequency changes everything.
As a Silva Graduate you can easily do this, consciously, and make your life a lot more pleasant!
Here's a description of how I do it:
The Dial Method
1. Go to your Level (Silva Grads know how to get there and stay as long as they like.)
2. Imagine, visualize or 'know' that before you is a dial of some sort.
(I remember the dial on my Uncle Ray's antique console radio.)
3. Now begin to move that dial so that your frequency goes higher.
(I imagine turning that dial to my right so that it moves to a 'higher station'.)
Your intuition lets you know when you've gone far enough.
Note: instead of a dial you might choose to use a lever, a button and digital display or anything that your mind equates with giving you the ability to raise your frequency.
* Yes, this is useful in health situations. It's known that bacteria and viruses function within certain frequency ranges. If you're not in their range they cannot affect you!
There have been times that I've felt as though a cold was attempting to settle in. By raising my vibration I've often totally stopped it. Or at least shortened its duration to a day or two.
Big improvement!
Use the Dial Method to make YOUR life better better and better.
UPDATE: 2 points
First, if the topic you're addressing includes something such as adrenaline (in accident situations this is common) use a 'distinctly different' dial and turn it down.
There's no limit to the number of dials you can have!
Second, if you're having a series of unfortunate incidents...even accidents...use this technique to raise your frequency to be in an energetic stream where accidents are not included.
This may sound overly-simplistic or even overly-complicated to you. It's neither. Give it some thought and you'll see how easily you can use it to make your life better and better.

Whats Your Silva Style?
When and where do you 'practice' your Silva...go to your level?
In the morning? At night? At home or in the office?
Some practice it for 30 minutes a day. Others take only a few minutes. ...
What is your Silva style?
However you choose to practice Silva, it takes some experimentation to find your unique style. Everyone has their favorite Silva techniques that they use almost every day. We know that with practice, we improve our ability to manifest our desires.
In the video below Laura shares her own style of practice as she reveals how she's been using Silva for the past 30 years (check out the video)…

Earthquakes Within and Without – 7 Steps For Changing Beliefs
Ever think about changing your beliefs? Think it's impossible? Or nearly?
It's not!
The Silva Method provides a great system to do this very effectively. If you're a Graduate of one or more of the Silva courses, probably you quickly
BTW the bold and italic fonts are mine.
by Dawn DelVecchio March 13, 2011
If you’ve been feeling on edge lately but can’t really put your finger on why – let me assure you: you’re not alone. A lot of us are starting to realise that something is going on. There’s some big changes happening here on planet Earth – both geologically and metaphysically – and it doesn’t always feel good.
As earthquakes literally rock our world, we humans are being rocked by an internal upheaval just as life-transforming. What is it?
Changing Beliefs
You see, we’re undergoing a shift in human consciousness. And that shift has got a lot of us feeling like the very ground beneath us is rocking and swaying – not unlike the earth quakes that are getting more intense and frequent all around our planet.
This is a time when our ‘higher selves’ are asking us to make some radical changes in our beliefs, because the beliefs we once thought stable and certain are now shifting like so much sand under our feet.
But how do we go about changing beliefs? How do we stay clear and strong even as all we once knew is in flux? First, let’s have a look at what beliefs are, (or more importantly, what’ they’re not), and then look at what to do to make this transformation as smooth as possible.
1. You’re NOT your Beliefs
Here’s the dilemma: we think our beliefs define who we are. Then, when life offers us information that clearly challenges those beliefs, we tend to get angry, scared or shift into denial, feeling as if our very life is threatened. Sounds irrational, doesn’t it? But think about how many times you’ve experienced or observed hostility, resentment and even the loss of friendships (to say nothing of war and abuse) all because someone said you were wrong, or because you told someone they weren’t right.
But the thing is – you’re not your beliefs. Not at all. A belief, as Abraham-Hicks explains, is simply “a thought you keep thinking.” No matter how long you’ve held a belief, no matter how much you’ve invested your life, time and energy into a belief, you are much, much more than that. Let’s take an example to illustrate …
Let’s say you lived during the 15th century, and you grew up believing that the world was flat. Then this guy Columbus comes along and willy-nilly, the world becomes round and your beliefs are wiped aside like a silly bit of nonsense. Does this change change you? Does it reduce you, limit you or in any way diminish you? Of course not! In fact, if you lived during such an era of sweeping change (and believe me – you do!), the discoveries that demand an instantaneous change in your beliefs would have rocked your world – for the better.
2. Ask for Guidance
Whether you ascribe to a higher Self, higher power, deeper knowing, angelic forces or ultimate God/Source energy, during this time of change, calling upon that which is most sacred to you will help you find ease with this personal and planetary transition. This is because when we ask for guidance we reach beyond the ego-based personality, a structure founded on the very beliefs we may now be called to change.
3. Breath
Sounds simple – is mighty. Breath is Life, and bringing your attention to it during times of stress can actually assist your physiological functioning as well as calm your mind. So when changing beliefs is feeling so painful that it’s more like cutting off a limb, breath and breath and breath.
4. Face your Fears
Take some time to look with courage at the beliefs you cherish most, then ask yourself the scariest question of all: “What would happen if this belief were wrong?” Scary, eh? I understand. But the strange thing is, when you actually face your greatest fears surrounding your beliefs, you open the door to mental and emotional liberation. Don’t believe me? Try it and see.
5. Forgive
Forgive yourself, forgive others, forgive your fears, your doubts, your disbeliefs. Forgive anyone and anything – including those who taught you any beliefs that now seem false. The more your forgive, the freer you’ll feel. Promise.
6. Meditate
In order to really begin to feel that you are not your beliefs, you have to get some mental ‘space’ from them. And there’s no more powerful, efficient way to get some space between your self-beyond-your-beliefs and your thoughts is through meditation. Meditation creates spaciousness in the mind. Allowing you to recognize – as Eckhart Tolle would say – that your thoughts and beliefs are no more than “content in the NOW.”
7. Choose Love
I’m not just talking about romantic love. And I’m definitely not talking about conditional love of any kind. I’m talking about love as the opposite of fear. I’m talking about loving acceptance for self, for others and for the earth, no matter what changes come. I’m talking about dropping judgement, drama and fear and committing yourself to a higher, deeper presence – no matter how tumultuous life feels.
Are you feeling a tumult of changes in your life that are demanding you reevaluate your beliefs? If you are, please share your story with us in the comments section below. This way we can help to support each other during these changing times.

It's not!
The Silva Method provides a great system to do this very effectively. If you're a Graduate of one or more of the Silva courses, probably you quickly

If you’ve been feeling on edge lately but can’t really put your finger on why – let me assure you: you’re not alone. A lot of us are starting to realise that something is going on. There’s some big changes happening here on planet Earth – both geologically and metaphysically – and it doesn’t always feel good.
As earthquakes literally rock our world, we humans are being rocked by an internal upheaval just as life-transforming. What is it?

The Silva Method in the Land Where Meditation Began
Welcome to another edition of the SIGA Success Strategies online magazine.
Here is an article that Jose Silva wrote several years ago, after he returned from a very successful trip to India, where people were very happy to see him.
By JOSE SILVA
The Silva Method is a big success in the land where meditation began.
We just returned from a three-week visit to India and Bangladesh where more than 1,000 people came to the advanced Silva Method training with me.
Yoga is the oldest meditation system known. It began in India at least 5,000 years ago.
Yogis typically meditate at theta levels. This is why some of them are able to perform amazing feats with their bodies - sleeping on a bed of nails, slowing their metabolism so that they can be buried alive for a month, withstanding great pain.
But they cannot become mentally active at the theta level.
They told us that yoga feels wonderful. It can bring a sense of oneness, a feeling of euphoria. They say that they often gain great insight.
Yet with all of this, India still has a great amount of poverty and suffering.
Yoga is too slow, they report. It takes too long to learn how to solve the problems that they have here and now, and even then they seem limited compared to the techniques of the Silva Method.
We took the Ultra Seminar to India, presenting the 2-day program in Bombay and New Delhi, and also to Bangladesh. In all, more than 1,000 Silva Method graduates attended.
They learned new techniques to use to heal themselves and others:
*We taught them the Silva Rapid Hand Vibration Healing Method. We asked for volunteers, as we always do.
Several people came up front who were in pain, or who had limited mobility. Several others came up who wanted to be healers. We showed the healers what to do, and, as always happens, the subjects showed substantial improvement.
*They learned the complete laying on of hands system that has proven so successful, even for people with so-called "terminal" illnesses. They watched us demonstrate it, and then they practiced it themselves.
*They learned how to read the Silva Standard Conditioning Cycle to their loved ones, and then practiced reading it to each other. Now they are able to help their family members by teaching them how to find their level and use the Silva Method formula-type techniques.
*We showed them several additional ways that they can get a person into a receptive programming state, through confusion, suspense, and so forth.
*We covered the use of reinforcing mechanisms so that their programming will continue to work even when they are not present. It is sort of like a "timed release" medicine.
*They saw demonstrations of biofeedback equipment and learned many ways that it can help them to improve their lives. We showed them how to use a small tape player as a healing instrument.
*They found out how to program for various business situations, such as learning how to use a reinforcing mechanism to program a person to have a desire to pay a debt.
*They learned even more, such as how to use their level to strengthen family ties and build better relationships, the best time to program, special techniques to improve visualization, psychometry, and more.
It was only a few years ago that we first introduced the Silva Method in India. Bob Stone, the co-author of several of our books, opened the door for us.
Bob reported that the first time he went to India to talk about the Silva Method and effective the techniques are, one member of the audience spoke up and said, "Dr. Stone, it seems like you are storming the gates of heaven."
Bob said that he took a deep breath, looked him in the eye and answered, "Well, maybe it's time that we did."
The audience applauded enthusiastically.
Bimolendu Rakshit is our director in India, and Mahee Quazi in Bangladesh. They are adding new scientific findings to an old tradition of meditation and introspection.
The result is that more problems are being solved, people's lives are improving, and the world is becoming a little better place to live.
