Getting Well Again - This best selling classic by cancer specialist O. Carl Simonton, M.D., profiles the typical "cancer personality", and gives step-by-step guidance to help you speed your recovery by using visualization and imagination at the alpha level. Dr. Simonton studied with Jose Silva and in his keynote address at the Silva Method International Convention he said, "I would say that (the Silva Method) is the most powerful single tool that I have to offer the patient."

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.

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

It is over 30 years since I first took the Silva Method course and figured I had got value for money. Over the years since I have had experience of a fair few course facilitators in repeat sessions. I have found Claire Lombard to be an excellent and capable instructor of the Silva Method and I have also taken instruction in Yoga and French language from her with positive results.

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.
