Dr. Wayne Dyer, author The Power of Intention.
“I have used the Silva Method for many years. It has helped me overcome illnesses and accidents, and avoid surgery. I urge you to attend Silva Method training sessions.”
Dr. O. Carl Simonton, Oncologist and founder of Simonton Center.
"The Silva Method gave me a tool to use in teaching the patient how
to begin the interaction and how to become involved in his own health process.
I would say that it is the most powerful single tool that I have to offer."

Shakti Gawain, author Creative Visualization
"One of the earliest workshops I took was the Silva Mind Control Course... The most important technique I learned in that course was the basic technique of creative visualization... Our rational mind is like a computer... The intuitive mind, on the other hand, seems to give access to an infinite supply of information. It appears to be able to tap into a deep storehouse of knowledge and wisdom..."
"Learning about the Silva method is fascinating and I have really been getting into the meditation. I do a minimum of two meditations 15 minutes a day (some days 3) and the 30 minute Long Relaxation meditation once a week. I can honestly say that the benefits already have been quite noticeable. I have definately been able to focus my attention and thoughts much better on achieving daily goals and re-inforcing positive thinking. When I feel stress starting to built up if I am out I use the 3 finger technique (very effective last weekend on a train full of revellers in Leeds !) And I have meditated before business meetings and courses I have had since returning and noticed a considerable difference to my attention span and level of confidence. Physically I am sleeping better and feeling much more refreshed when I wake up-and my eating pattern seems more settled. I feel calmer, happier and more relaxed on a general basis than I can honestly ever remember feeling before - so I shall continue to practice the techniques you taught with continued enthusiasm !" Caz, Leeds, UK
I had great success with the Silva Method since doing the course. I've already got myself a great new job with it, and am really seeing the difference in my energy and focus. I have booked my Dad and Mom onto the course in June. They are really looking forward to it. I also intend to take the course again in June '07. Stephen Herbert, Psychology student. Dublin, Ireland
“Thank you for a lovely experience during the weekend. As a result I had a super duper parent teacher meeting. I felt all interactions between myself and each set of parents were very fruitful. I wasn't worn out at the end of the night as I have felt before. The whole evening was more positive and I could see the parents blossoming with all the positive news and giving me back useful feedback. The school day has also become more productive. I really believe that even after using the phrase "You are really learning/concentrating/listening etc. better and better every day" for two days so far the atmosphere in the classroom has become more focused and attentive. Thank you so much again and I'll write again to let you both know how the memory pegs and three-finger technique works with the children”. Melissa, Primary School Teacher, Dublin, Ireland
“Thank you very much for a very insightful weekend. Last night after the course I went to help my brother at his house… he is renovating. I found myself facing the door to his garden shed in the dark with the massive bunch of keys that he has. I needed to find the correct key to the shed. I decided to use one of the tools I learned to find the right key so I used the 3 finger technique and said "I will pick out the correct key first time"...and guess what?... Instantaneously I picked out the right key...Looking forward to using the rest of the tools!” M. Reid, Sales Representative. Multinational IT Company, Dublin Ireland
"Using the Silva Method is not just a beautifully relaxing way to be, it is much more than that. It helps you to remain positive, focused and healthy whatever happens. You will not become invincible but it will certainly give you the feeling that you are better equipped to deal with life, help yourself and even others in any situation (illnesses, decisions, crisis, etc.) If there is one thing I always recommend to my friends for personal development it is to book the next Silva course." - Zsofia Puszta, Multinational IT Company, Dublin, Ireland
"Creative visualization is really what's behind the Silva Method; that is, whatever you can visualize, you can actualize," explains Richard Bach, Silva Method advocate and author of one of the hottest books in years, “Jonathan Livingston Seagull”
“Through hard physical training and the Silva Method, I’ve won two gold medals (World Titles), and a fourth place finish, making me a competing member of the US National Martial Arts team for the 2004 Olympics in Greece.” - Jessie Bowen, Athlete and Silva Method Instructor
“I achieved 13 pole positions and 13 wins in a row”. The Silva Method gives me supreme concentration and confidence, which are both greatly needed in the very competitive sport of motor racing. I am now committed to using the Silva techniques for the rest of my career”. - Andy Priaulx - European Touring Cars, Lead driver with BMW
"Visualization, mental rehearsal, stress management, and intuition are as much a part of an athlete's training regimen as diet, exercise, and sport specific practice. The Silva System allows instant access to these mental techniques." - Lance R. Miller, International Shooting Coach; Director, Fla. State Junior Olympic Camp; 1995, USA Shooting, Coach of the Year
“Golf was the reason I came to the Silva course. My game definitely improved. The unexpected surprise is freedom from the cloud of depression that hung over me for the past 15 years.”- Ken Shepard,
Sport Enthusiast
“ I've always been a creative person, in that I love coming up with ideas in the many different areas life takes me (particularly linked to music and drama), and then following them through with an end “ I became a superstar in real estate ranked in the top 39% nationally. I have also reduced my weight 67 pounds.”- G. Wasserburger, Realtor
“It is 10 years since I became a Silva graduate. Exactly 30 days after the course I smoked the last cigarette. It has been 9 ½ years since I smoked, drank or used any addictive chemicals.”
- T. S., Attorney
“I was in dropout prevention classes from second grade through the fifth grade. During the second semester of fifth grade I came to the Silva course. I scored high on the FCAT and all of my other tests. I am now in regular or advanced classes and doing very well.”- S.B. January, Student
"There is no way to estimate the value of the Silva Method principles in the conduct of a new business. The power of the deep levels of mind to solve practical problems, bring forth creative new product ideas, and aid in positive employer-employee relationships is fantastic. We have found the Silva Method of Mind Development to be the most grounded, practical, accessible and easy method of all." - John and Rita Donohue, Entrepreneur
