The most important technique I learned in The Silva Method was creative visualization... I found that it was amazingly effective.

There was a discussion between myself and another person and when I tried to explain my point of view they totally dismissed it and didn't agree with me. That night I went to my level and I explained the situation to this person again, using the Mirror of the Mind Technique. The following day she told me that she now understood where I was coming from the previous day and understood what I was trying to say. I also use the three fingers technique to get parking spaces.

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!

I used the long relax prior to taking my exams for my degree course. It really helped me relax and I became far more focused. And then on the days of the exams I felt totally clear focused. I also found the techniques invaluable for memorising points and lists in the exam situation. Overall, in every day life, since I have been using the techniques I have found myself to be far more positive.

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.
