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

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.

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 went for a top up in the teeth of my last exam and fellow students thought I was mad as I needed all my spare time for studying. During the exam, the minute something wouldn't come into my head I used my Three Fingers Technique which is one of the Silva techniques which has never let me down.

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.
