You’ve been regularly meditating. But every time you do, you fidget, keep adjusting your posture, and get easily distracted by every sound your phone makes.
Despite your best efforts, perhaps your day-to-day routines still feel chaotic. Your mind keeps racing from task to task at work, and you can’t shake off the mounting demands of home life and relationships.
Here’s where The Silva Method comes in. It’s dynamic and simple to learn if you want to reap more rewards from meditation and improve your quality of life.
Vishen, the founder of Mindvalley, swears by it so much that it’s the foundation for Mindvalley’s The Silva Ultramind System Quest. “What you’re going to be learning in this program is essentially how to activate the power of your subconscious mind. Touched by faith, to dramatically transform every aspect of your life,” he says.
This method has already transformed millions of lives, including that of Vishen. And now, it could transform yours.
What is The Silva Method?
Developed by José Silva in 1960, The Silva Method is a mind-training technique that goes beyond typical meditation. It helps you tap into altered states of consciousness to unlock mental clarity, heightened creativity, and intuition through controlling your brainwaves.
He believed that by controlling your brainwaves, you could unlock laser-sharp intuition, next-level creativity, and even dabble in some psychic abilities.
How it works
These brainwave levels José worked with are:
- Beta: The default waking frequency when you’re alert to tackle your daily tasks.
- Alpha: A relaxed state when you’re most receptive to learning new things.
- Theta: A state accessed during meditation and deep sleep—perfect for introspection, self-hypnosis, and mind-body healing.
- Delta: The deepest state where you’re fully unconscious, have dreamless sleep, and when your body repairs itself.
José’s insights seemed ahead of his time. Initially, only a few believed him. But over time, science started backing his claims—particularly the power of alpha and theta brainwaves.
Increasing the ratio of theta to alpha waves has been shown to improve creativity, communication, and emotional integration while also reducing anxiety and depression. The relationship between these brainwave states is central to the Silva Method, where techniques like dynamic meditation and visualization tapping into these states inform overall performance and well-being.
What sets the Silva Method apart? It’s straightforward. You don’t need to master complex rituals or commit hours to training to apply it. Through mental visualization, dynamic meditation, and more, you can leverage these brainwaves and unlock more cognitive acuity.
No wonder over six million people have used the method to transform their lives as of today. Even mainstream neuroscience is starting to give it a nod.
So, José was right all along—mastering your mind isn’t just possible; it’s pretty essential.
No wonder he wrote a book about it.
The Silva Method book
The Silva Mind Control Method book lays out the entire foundation of José’s mind-training techniques.
José’s unconventional background as a radio technician in Texas gave him a unique perspective on the brain. Unlike traditional scientists, he believed the brain wasn’t just a survival tool—it had untapped potential that could be harnessed for intuition, creativity, and even psychic abilities. This outside-the-box thinking became the foundation for what he shares in the book.
If you’re someone who likes the science behind metaphysics, don’t worry—this book doesn’t shy away from that. It dives into the research and theories that make this method tick and offers exercises to help you flex your mental muscles.
But while the book is a great introduction, the real transformation happens when you dive into the guided practices. That’s where Vishen’s story comes in to bring you from theory to a full-on life hack.
Vishen and The Silva Method
At 14, you may not exactly be searching for ways to hack your mind. You’re figuring out life, drifting between school and distractions. But for Vishen, fate had a different plan.
One day, while rummaging through his dad’s study, a copy of The Silva Mind Control Method fell on young Vishen’s head. Curious but not fully invested, he shelved it until life brought it back around in the most unexpected way…
Fast-forward a few years, Vishen found himself struggling. Hustling as a salesman in Silicon Valley, his dreams of success were slipping through his fingers.
Desperate for a breakthrough, he remembered that old book. He signed up for a weekend Silva Method course, hoping for even a flicker of change. What happened next was nothing short of amazing.
Within days, Vishen doubled his sales numbers. His focus sharpened, and his confidence surged. But the real game-changer wasn’t just in hitting sales targets.
“The Silva Method gave me tools to tap into my intuition, and that’s what changed everything,” Vishen says.
From here, Vishen could make clearer decisions at work. That confidence gained from the experience ultimately inspired him to leave the Silicon Valley grind behind, join the non-profit world, and eventually found Mindvalley.
When you look at it closely, what happened was that Vishen learned to bend reality and activate his founder mode. It’s why, beyond Mindvalley, he was ultimately able to manifest more critical cornerstones of his life—like A-Fest and Mindvalley University.
Ultimately, the paradigm shift he experienced through the method laid the foundation for what would become the world-renowned Silva Ultramind System.
Reflecting on the method, Vishen shared, “When I was working on several major projects in my life, I would do this three times a day for 15 minutes each, and the results were dramatic.”
Introducing Mindvalley’s Silva Ultramind System
The Silva Ultramind System Quest is Mindvalley’s next-level mind-hacking framework. Leveraging the legendary Silva Method, this system helps you…
- Achieve greater inner peace,
- Unlock deep intuition, and
- Gain mastery over your mind.
In a nutshell, the Quest helps you access a higher level of awareness and mental performance.
You see, Vishen didn’t just improve his well-being with this method. More than anything, it transformed his life and empowered intuitive decisions that scaled up his career and personal growth—zero to hero style.
After experiencing these life-changing benefits, he was honored to take over the torch from Silva’s family and introduce The Silva Ultramind System Quest (included in Mindvalley Membership).
Here are some fundamental things to expect from this program:
1. Dynamic meditation
Forget sitting still and hoping for mental clarity to arrive. Dynamic meditation actively synchronizes your brain and body, leading to sharper focus, stress reduction, and improved productivity.
You can lean on it while at work, contemplating big decisions, or looking to be more present in your daily life. It’s designed to boost your mental agility, no matter your familiarity with meditation.
2. The centering exercise
The centering exercise brings you to the alpha level of consciousness, where you can unlock creativity, intuition, and problem-solving skills.
In this state, your mind becomes more receptive to insights and solutions, helping you make decisions with confidence and ease. It’s the ultimate hack for improving focus and achieving mental clarity.
Try it out for yourself, and see how you feel afterward:
3. The mental screen technique
If you’ve ever struggled to make your goals feel real, the mental screen technique—which piggybacks off the power of visualization—is your answer.
As Vishen explains, “The mental screen is how you’re going to visualize and imagine. It’s where you receive and project information—allowing your mind to see possibilities and solutions you may have never thought of before.”
By creating vivid mental images in your mind and anchoring them with intention, you’ll prime your brain to manifest these visions into reality. Those abstract dreams about working out more or building a business can soon turn into actionable steps and achievements.
4. Projection
When going through the Quest, you’ll learn to expand your consciousness beyond your physical body—all in the name of new perspectives, insights, and clarity.
Whether you’re solving problems or seeking direction, this exercise shows you how to access information beyond the limits of ordinary thinking, driving your mental performance to the next level.
