helen hansell was able to win any competition she took part in she was known as the contest queen because she had won seven trips to paris boats houses she would basically take part in any sweepstake she read about any contest and she would just win that made my documentary crew and i asked helen how do you do that and she spoke about this thing called the silva technique helen you see was jose silva's former pr manager she had the benefit of learning closely from that man now jose silva was a radio repairman who lived in the border town of laredo texas in the 1940s he had 10 kids and his kids were not doing very well in school now jose silva had a crazy idea you see he had served in the us army and he was fascinated by the psychological questions that the army psychologist would ask new recruits so he decided to look at psychology and then look at what he knew about radio repair and figure out how he could change the mindset and the brains of his kids so they could do better in school as a radio repairman he knew that if you reduce the resistance of a wire more electricity flows through it so he wondered what could i do to reduce the resistance in the human mind he decided to experiment with reducing any form of resistance in his children's brain he experimented with biofeedback he experimented with hypnosis and sure enough his children's grade started improving at school but then something astonishing happened he was sitting down with his daughter isabel reading a history book and asking isabel questions so he would guide isabel into a restful state of being she would have her eyes closed he would read her the important dates she would be able to absorb that and then he would ask her questions but something strange started happening isabelle was able to answer a question before he verbally spoke it now let me explain this he would think of the question in his head a question such as who was the 16th president of the united states before he could verbally say it isabel would answer the question abraham lincoln jose silva was mind blown and so he wrote to professor jb ryan at duke university jb ryan was famous for his research into a concept called esp extra sensory perception and silva tall rhine doctor i think i trained my daughter to have esp jb ryan replied back in a letter and said no that's absolutely not true no one can be trained to have this your daughter must have been born with it jose silva disagreed so he continued training the rest of his kids to develop a high degree of intuition so now over the next 10 years jose silva trained 39 laredo children on this approach he documented the results he made everything hyper precise and he proved jb ryan wrong this was a trainable skill but then adults started noticing an adult started coming to him in laredo texas to get trained jose silva decided to call his approach the silver mind control method and what happened next was astonishing a man wrote in a newspaper how after learning silva's method he was able to cure his persistent migraine headaches for good the migraines just disappeared the next class jose wrote in his autobiography was absolutely flooded by people and the silver mind control method ended up expanding all across the united states so here's what jose silva discovered as the root cause of all our problems we are powerful beings but from the time we are born from the education system we grow up in from our parents and caretakers who may not know better we take on so much negative programming we actually suppress our inherent human abilities there was a famous study done that showed that all children under the age of four are naturally hyper-creative and genius but the percentage of kids who show genius ability gets lower and lower and lower as they get older something about our modern way of life removes these unique abilities from us the solution jose silva discovered is the act of being able to consciously access altered states of consciousness what is an altered state of consciousness well our consciousness actually operates at different frequencies you can measure this using a scientific device called an eeg machine there's a frequency called beta which is the waking state frequency most of us are in beta as we go through our jobs but when you get into a relaxed state of mind you go into a hyper-creative state called alpha alpha is known for creativity for problem solving for accelerated healing meditators monks go into alpha as part of their daily routine athletes are proven to go into alpha before they take a shot before they shoot an arrow the alpha state is what you're in when you practice relaxation in meditation and this is why there are over 15 000 studies today that show that being relaxed and being in a meditative or mindful state actually improve your health and well-being but you can go further than that you can access the next state which is called data now data is a really curious state scientists who study data say that this is the state that gives you inspiration eureka moments difficult problems suddenly get solved with a great insight let me give you an example thomas edison the great inventor was known for his afternoon naps but he napped in a really curious way legend has it he would sleep on a sofa holding a metal ball in his hand and when he drifted off into deep sleep his hand would drop the ball would hit a metal plate next to the sofa causing a loud clang that woke him up in short he was dipping into sleep and waking up dipping into sleep and waking up why did he do this because edison was dipping into the theta level the data level is the level of light sleep and he was dipping into it to get inspiration and insights he wasn't the only one a famous american inventor by the name of william gates ii would create some of the most incredible patents and trademarks he had dozens of them but his method was to go into theta by locking himself in his darkened basement closing all the lights sitting on his desk and going into a deep state of relaxation where ideas and eureka moments would flow to him now while beta is the waking frequency all of us can learn to tap into alpha and theta and the next level is the most curious of all delta delta has the level that you're in when you're asleep but silva found that you can learn to program your mind just before going to sleep and have your mind solve problems for you while at delta scientists who study delta have noticed this people who are able to operate at the delta level of mind often tend to be incredibly lucky miracles happen crazy serendipities occur you might call it magic or good luck but it's something different it almost seems like these people who are trained to access delta can bend reality jose silva went on to create this incredible movement called the silver mind control movement it was one of the first personal growth programs in america his book the silver mind control method sold millions upon millions of copies everyone from opera singer margarita piazza to the chicago white sox spoke about how silver techniques were allowing them to improve their skill on stage on the ball field silva went deep into pioneering new techniques including the centering exercise to rapidly take you into the alpha level and then he created techniques to amplify focus creativity and intuition his mental video technique which he created in the mid 1990s as his latest deathbed was designed to help you bring in higher intelligence to help you solve the most difficult problems he also created the three scenes technique to help you see your life unfolding exactly as you want it to unfold and also to accelerate healing and manifest your deepest desires his case working technique was designed to train people to learn the science of mind body healing as the silver method grew of course there were skeptics newspapers sent journalists to go into silver classes and see what this man was talking about silver classes were absolutely mobbed by people filled with wall street types and executives and they were loving it because they were learning to conquer stress but what they did not know jose silva was not going to stop at something so simple stress was just one aspect by day four of the class they were learning to tap into intuition to access deep states of meditation and to manifest their future an entire marketing company was organized by graduates to use what they learned in silver to invent new products and decide new ways to market them in its third year the company had 18 products on the market furthermore one advertising man used to need two months to create a campaign for his clients this was quite average in the field applying the silver method he brought the process down to 20 minutes the rest of the work was done in two weeks now the famous chicago white sox had 14 players take the silver method all their individual averages improved most of them dramatically the husband of a woman who was suffering from obesity suggested she tried the silver method because all the diet she tried had failed she agreed provided he took silva too she lost 20 pounds in six weeks he stopped smoking a professor at a college of pharmacy thought silva to his graduates their grades are going up in all their courses he said with less studying and they are more relaxed everybody knows how to use their imagination i just get my students to practice it more i show them that imagination is valid and there's a form of reality and imagination that we can use with all of the success jose did not become a celebrity not a guru not a spiritual leader with followers he's a plain man of simple ways speaks with a soft lost accent of a mexican american a kind man who smiles easily whenever he hears jose you changed my life and he replies no i didn't do it you did with your own mind now are you ready for this because this is the craziest story of all you see this this is the cover of time magazine and on this cover you see the author richard back who wrote the famous book jonathan livingston seagull this time magazine is from november 13 1972 and i got this on ebay richard back made the cover of time magazine because his book jonathan livingston seagull struck such a chord it took off and sold millions of copies but here's the thing in an interview with harper's bazaar magazine richard back said that this book had been sitting in his basement for years until he took a silver class and as he went into his alpha level of mine the final closing chapter of the book came together he was able to complete the book submit it and it became one of the best selling books of his generation putting him on the cover of time magazine i interviewed his daughter to validate it and sure enough back's daughter confirmed the story saying that a father had the manuscript for five years in their basement she also said that her father would come back from these classes sit down with her and teach her techniques and now she understood that these were silver techniques before i show you how to change your mind to change your life let me first say my name is vishen lakyani and many people call me one of the luckiest people alive i built my dream company mindvalley into a massive valuation my book the code of the extraordinary mind became the number one book in the world on amazon september 16 2017. my second book hit number one in the wall street journal i run multiple companies around the world in just a few hours a week and i live a life that i consider blessed now while on the outside all of this seems like luck the truth is i've been using the silver method for the last 20 years to reprogram my brain to manifest the life by design and once you begin to understand it synchronicities become part of your life magic seems to infuse your life it almost seems as if the universe has your back just like helen hetzel did you see helen was doing what all her silver graduates know she was a master at bending reality it wasn't until i stumbled upon the silver method that everything changed for me it started when i was 26. it was april 2001 when i landed in san francisco and my timing sucked because the dot-com bubble burst i lost my savings i lost the job i had and i was forced to get a dialing for dollars job selling software to lawyers and making absolutely nothing the economy was so bad they were not paying a base salary it was either sell a software and get a 20 cut or you don't get to eat that week i was seeing my bank account get lower and lower and lower and i couldn't afford rent so i was sleeping on a friend's couch and one day in desperation i decided to get on google and ask for help google was the hot new search engine in silicon valley and i can't remember what i put in maybe it was dear google why does life suck so bad or it was dear google how do i get out of this rut and what i remember happened next is that i saw a search result for a jose silva class happening in los angeles i decided to put together the few hundred dollars i have fly to la and take this class especially because it seemed to promise so much improving sales manifesting your dream life bringing you out of the depression and boy i needed that because i was so down now this class in la was called silva ultramine it was jose silva's final creation he had produced this program and released it in a limited way to the world in around 1996 jose died in february 1999 and this program was his last creation and the seminar in la was being taught by a pharmaceutical salesperson when i met her she explained that she had used these techniques to overcome the agony of a tragic divorce she had built her life back she had transformed her sales in her company and to prove it to me she showed me the beautiful red sports car that she was driving furthermore she said she had used it to meet the man of her dreams and that's why in addition to all of this she decided to give back to others by getting trained in the silver method so she could teach this class that was enough for me if i could get just 10 of the success she had i would be ecstatic and so i took the class with her i was the only person who showed up for this two-day class and so as i went through this class she made me understand why i was so stuck i was using just a limited portion of the faculties of my mind i was programmed with beliefs and ideas that were holding me back and i'd literally shut myself down to human abilities that jose silva had showed that we all have but so few use i flew back to san francisco sunday night because i had to start work on monday and my life was never going to be the same again on monday morning when i woke up before going to work i used my silva techniques to program my day and then at work i used the technique to go into the data level of mine and tap into intuition you see back then we had to check out the yellow pages remember that big heavy book we had to check out the yellow pages from the san francisco public library and i have to call every law firm in my designated territory san antonio we had to go from a to z in order but i decided to try the silva technique as i read the yellow pages i would check my gut for an impulse or a feeling that this was the right lawyer to call and i would call only the lawyers where i felt an intuitive yes now something really strange happened that day that day itself i did double the sales i average i attributed this to pure luck right so i didn't make much of it but at the end of the week i continued having double my sales average and now i knew something interesting was happening two weeks later i doubled my sales again using a different silver technique called subliminal programming and two weeks after that i doubled my sales again using a yet another silver technique called the three scenes technique my boss came to me and i'll never forget what he said he said bush what are you doing i said i honestly don't know how it works but i think it's called esp and he replied nah that's but um but can you keep doing it i grew so fast in that company that in the next four months i was promoted three times i was 26 years old and made vice president of sales and they shipped me out to new york to start the company's new york office on september 11 2002.
i worked at that company operating a gorgeous office in chelsea market new york and i loved my life but 18 months into it i began to feel a calling i began to feel that the corporate world wasn't for me i wanted something where i could make an impact and that's when i remembered a quote by nelson mandela mandela said if you want to change the world change education so i thought wow i want to go into education but what would i teach and then this dawned on me the most valuable education i had in my entire life was the silver method this is what i wanted to teach and so i decided to contact jose silva's family get the license to teach the silva method to promote its products and start a company around that i became a silva instructor i travel the world teaching small silver classes for five years before i decided to go bigger and start a company to transform humanity that company is called mind value and today we are the biggest personal growth company on the planet none of these accomplishments would it be impossible if it wasn't for silver this is just one of the many goals that i was able to see in my mind so picture perfect using silva's mental screen technique every time i think back it's incredible how my life moved towards these goals with so much ease and fluidity i started working with jose silva's family in around 2004 i helped take the silver method to a wide audience again and in 2018 jose silva's daughter diana silva asked me to be the face of the new silva method to make sure that jose's knowledge never left the earth in 2020 we took jose silva's most powerful two-day seminar silver ultramine and we transformed it into an online program that transforms lives everywhere it is the most advanced silver program in the world right now and it is only available on the mindvalley platform to translate jose silva's work and legacy for a new generation silver ultramine is a 28-day program hosted by me with core ideas from jose silva's work every day you go through a 15 to 20 minute training designed to layer on advanced mind power techniques into your consciousness you learn how to tap into altered states of consciousness with such ease and fluidity that they become second nature your journey begins with silva's core mind exercise it's called the mental screen and it's designed for enhanced visualization this is perfect if you've struggled to manifest things in the past the mental screen is a powerful tool that you use when you're able to tap into the alpha level you can use it in so many ways i used it to create healthy relationships with everyone around me to build a team for mindvalley to connect with some of the most amazing people in the world there is the world famous silver centering exercise this is a 22-minute audio designed by jose silva with a particular language pattern that allows you to go into the alpha level of mind easier and easier every time you listen to it and soon you're able to tap into that alpha level of mind instantly using a simple finger movement that you program into your brain then you'll discover how to access your subconscious mind's full intuitive ability once you learn to get to the alpha level of mind it's then just an extra step to get into the data level of mind the data level of mind is where ideas and creativity flows to you i work with engineers and we specifically go into the data level of mine to design the user interface and the algorithms for complex apps and ai projects because the idea flow when you're at data is incredibly powerful then in silver you learn how to use a powerful tool called the free scenes technique this is an incredible way to tap and speak into your subconscious to reprogram different aspects of your life people have used the three scenes technique to reprogram their behavior towards food or exercise to give up smoking and you can even use it to program your body to heal we've seen people use this technique for so many amazing things camilla hansen is a former miss sweden and a swedish entrepreneur she spoke about using the three scenes technique to heal her skin bianca andrescu was a 19 year old romanian girl who beat serena williams and worn the u. s open in september 2019. she used the silva programming technique of creative visualization to see herself winning that trophy this stuff is powerful now as you go deeper into the program you learn the most powerful tool of all the mental video technique the mental video technique is so unique because it shows you how to work with your mind at the delta level you see most people are asleep if your mind slows down to the level of the delta level you typically are asleep you're unconscious but there is a technique that you can use just before going to sleep to put a problem that you want to solve into your mind and the next day when you wake up over the next 72 hours you start to notice synchronicities that seem to make this problem resolve itself this is what the mental video technique does it's a little strange but once you get the hang of it this is one of the most powerful mental tools you can use in your arsenal and people who use it swear by it the mental video technique is useful for problems that you don't know how to specifically solve it's useful for relationship issues it's useful for problems such as growing your finances even though you don't have an idea on what action to take next it seems to connect you to a higher source that guides you to the right path all of these techniques are layered onto you day by day by day using a unique methodology of speaking to your conscious you see when you take this program you aren't just learning true lectures i'm reading out jose silva's specific word for word scripts that guide you into altered states and as you are there programs your consciousness to unlock these abilities you are not asleep you are not being hypnotized you are fully awake and you understand every word but as you say these words to yourself something shifts and new abilities unlock for example when you first start it may take you five minutes to train your mind to get to the alpha level by day 20 you can get there in 30 seconds because we've programmed your mental attitude to going into altered states some of the things our graduates have accomplished are wild i told you about the helen hadsell story the richard backstory here's another bert goldman bert goldman is another silva legend in his 80s bert goldman became an accomplished photographer an accomplished artist he learned to play the piano he was able to pick up skills with such ease but know this about bert bert was a close friend of jose silva was a silva graduate and went so deep into silva he became an instructor himself and then there are all of these stories from ordinary people around the world that have been submitted to our website so in total this is what it looks like you're going to get 28 individual lessons over 28 days before the pandemic if you wanted to learn silver ultramine you'd only be able to attend a seminar maybe once maybe twice a year you'd probably spend thousands of dollars flying

these were ceos executives startup founders but the pandemic made us change the way we presented this because we had to shut down seminars we decided to make the entire program digital it took us
