Based on the extraordinary 4-day course pioneered by Jose Silva, this life-transforming book shows how people have learned to overcome tension, bad habits, emotional insecurity, and even illness with the techniques of Mind Control.
This is going to be a little different than most of the reviews I do as I’ve really stepped out of my normal reading to explore some books on manifestation, mental awareness and meditation. I’ve read a few now and all of them have at one point mentioned the Silva Mind Control method. I think it is one of the founding books on how to train your mind and explores changing your life by changing how you think.
The Silva Mind Control Method was written sometime in the 70s, so parts of this book are a bit dated, just be aware.  But it did give me some better tools for learning how to meditate that I thought were more useful than in some of the other books I’ve read on how to focus your mind and get into alpha, delta and theta states. There were things to practice and a plan on how to get there. For me, that was the the item that helped me the most.
I will say that really only the first half of the book was helpful to me and then it got a little too woo-woo (yes that is the technical term) for even me. I’m a huge believer of your mind being able to control the world around you and you are the creator of that world. I think this book could give you some tools on how to tap into some secret depths of your mind to really make the most of your life and your place in it.
I was very engaged in the first half of the book but really lost interest and slogged through the second half. Still, I’m enjoying going back through the chapters as I’m working on how to meditate and make it a normal part of my everyday life.

Interesting!!!
I feel like when I try to read any kind of self-help type of book like this that I usually fizzle out about a third or halfway through. Glad you got some good out of it.
