Verwy Interrrrresting

Yes I know how to spell. Some background is necessary first before the review. I’m 57. In 9th grade health class, I was failing. When it was time for the final exam, I consulted instructor and he told me it didn’t look too good at this point, but I needed a really good score on the exam to pass the course. A pal of mind had mentioned to me earlier in the day about mind control, and hypnosis. We went to his house after school and jumped into book learning the technique presented. The next couple evenings I studied for my exams getting into zone first. Thursday was the test, Friday the results. When Mr Kijenko handed back my test, he stopped at my desk, looked me in the eye and said, I don’t know how you pulled this off, nice job! I had gotten an A on the test and passed the course.
Several years later I joined the USN. I started as an E1. I made E5 (dental technician second class) in under 4 years, having no sea duty, no over seas duty, and no awards. Unheard of. I was told I must have aced the exam. It was unbelievable to a lot of people. But I knew why and how.

The book is good, the reading/performance is good. The methods work but you have to stay tuned up. It was/is well past tune up time for me so I was happy to refind the methods and get back onboard. I’m in a rut, I work too much, feeling under prepared to retire, and gotta get back on top. This book will help you get there. Believe and it will show you the way!

Little on actual techniques, high on advertising

it's full of advertising the silva method but it barely talks about the techniques. if you're going to sell so hard, at least put an equivalent amount of effort in discussing the techniques. have a lesson plan!
nope this book was mostly advertising.

Good book, leaves you wanting more substance.

At first it sounded like it would be good listen. It's a great pace and easy to follow along. I am truly interested in learning all I can about the technique. While they were constructed and delivered very well, about halfway through it felt more like a storybook on successes of using the method. It also felt like it mixed in advertisements for taking the 2 day course. It all just sort of blended in together and left me wanting more from it and not in an exciting way. If it had a bit more content on preforming the techniques on each section (aka guided meditations or even direction) it would have made an excellent book.

Revolutionary for its time

63 years later and we still haven’t throughly connected the dots. A good read. This is the basic’s & therefore a good place to start.

Marketing book

Very interesting concepts, but this book does not go into the details on how to learn the techniques. This book is an introduction to the course, which is not included in it. If you want to learn about the Silva method, you are better off going on YouTube or just Google it. Not worth the money/credit.

Not guided meditations as othersSilva audios

I bought this title because I listened to and enjoyed the Silva Choose Success Master Course. I thought this title will have more exercises and meditation but I was wrong. This title is more like an explanation of what is the Silva Method. It gives guidelines but no guided meditations. After listening to the Silva Choose Success Master Course, this book is disappointing.
