I was travelling on Ryan Air when it was announced that passengers could go for a draw. The winner would win two air flight tickets for Italy; So I decided now and there that I would like to win those tickets and that it was ok for me for it to happen. So I went to my level and programmed for it and guess what... Wasn't I announced to be the lucky winner!

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."

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.

When I was sick with cancer and on treatment I would use the Long Relax for total and healing relaxation, adding the Pain Control Technique to minimise the pain. The results were terrific. I was told I was a model patient at the hospital. I now use the techniques mostly on the road to have an uneventful journey and to be moving the traffic along: I set duration for my travel and using the techniques always find that I achieve my goal, arriving safely, relaxed and on time. I use the sleep technique whenever I'm restless to have good quality sleep. Also, I sometimes have to travel long distances to attend meetings so, when I know I'm going to have a very short night sleep I use the Long Relax to improve the quality of sleep in order to be alert whilst driving and during the meeting.

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.
