"I am four days into this Quest so far and cannot wait to learn more!"

Let me preface my response about my experience with Silva’s Mind Control Method by explaining that I have been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 1997. All my regular clients have said they have never had anyone who could match my skills as a massage therapist. They tell me I perform the best therapeutic massage they have ever experienced. I have had several clients who have moved away tell me that I “ruined massage” for them because no one performs massage like I do. 

My clients and I have all concluded that if I could teach others to be intuitive like I am, then we could train other massage therapists to perform massage like mine. But how can you teach intuition?! Common consensus says that it is impossible to teach intuition: You must be born with this ability. And I was born with it. 

My first recognition of my extra-ordinary ability was while I was in college. I met someone who told me to guess where he was born. I did not know this guy from Adam. However, in my mind’s eye, I saw the Arch of St. Louis. So, when I guessed "St. Louis, Missouri," we were both equally shocked. He demanded to know who told me. I explained that I saw the Arch in my head so that’s why I guessed St. Louis. 

Despite having experienced this, I thought it was a one-time fluke and did not think about it further until I was riding in my best friend’s car two years later. I heard her distinctly ask a question, so I answered the question. She looked at me with the most peculiar look on her face. I responded: “You asked... and I responded to your question.” (I cannot even remember now what she asked)
 She corrected me by saying: “I THOUGHT...” 

I was silenced and did not know how to respond her. I did not understand why I could hear her thoughts. I assumed it was because she was my closest friend at that time. 

I was not very confident in myself, so I spent a couple years second guessing myself about this intuition, especially when it came to love and romance. I allowed myself to be gaslit and believe I was fabricating this in my mind. 

Despite my inhibitions to believe in my power when it came to my personal life, my intuition became a driving force in my career. I had been practicing this skill throughout my training in massage school. I envisioned my first office and its exact location for my massage practice which I launched in 1997. I knew people would call for an appointment, so I left holes in my schedule for them to fill. 

Their bodies began to relay information to my body in the form of pain or discomfort. I knew where they hurt because I felt it on my own body. Additionally, I could sometimes hear their thoughts in my mind. This was not something I told them because I did not want them to think I would eavesdrop on their thoughts. 

I assumed this was happening because I was physically touching them. When it started happening randomly as I was passing by people in the street, I started to block it out. I did not want to hear the internal monologues of others. I focused on this ability only while performing massage. 

For years, I have been wanting to teach others and take on massage apprentices but no one I have encountered understands this vision. They feel I want to micromanage them and how they perform. I explain I want to bring them up to my level of mastery. Our conversations always conclude with them explaining to me I cannot teach intuition. 

Fast forward to early 2022. One day, as I was scrolling through my Facebook feed, an informercial came up with Vishen talking about Helen Hadsell, the "Contest Winner." I was intrigued so I kept listening. 

When he mentioned how Jose Silva trained others how to be intuitive, I was hooked. I had to know everything I could about this. 

Vishen said he had gone to study the Ultra Mind Method from a trainer in LA. I looked at this suave, handsome, slick man speaking on my screen and thought: Why would I want to go to Mind Valley to learn what I assumed would be a bastardized version of Silva’s Method? I wanted to go to the source! I missed the part in this infomercial in which Vishen explained that Diana Silva had asked Vishen and Mind Valley to be the exclusive training source for the Ultra Mind Method. 

Therefore, I launched into a search to find anything and everything about Silva’s Mind Control Method. I found one person in Portland, Oregon who is training others in this method. I ordered a book from Amazon and began to listen to an audiobook I found on YouTube. 

As I listened to the audio book walk me though the stages of brain waves for the first time, I have never felt so liquified without the use of drugs, which I hate to use! My drug of choice has been and will forever be the post massage serotonin high. 

I have lamented for years that while giving a massage, my mind flows into the expanses of the universe. I feel connected to everything at once. My creativity shows me answers to questions and solutions to problems. I have the most brilliant ideas in this state. But, I cannot write any of this down because I am in the middle of massaging someone! 

For almost 25 years, I have had this occur multiple times daily. And every single time I would tell myself not to forget what I saw or experienced while giving the massage. But I would go and wash my hands and grab a pen to write it down. By the time I had the pen in hand, my mind would be blank. I could not remember any of those incredible thoughts in full, only bits and pieces here and there. Until I learned the finger mantra to remember from the book. 

Now that I am practicing putting myself into altered states at home, while in Theta, I can remember.
 I believe that I have been going into Theta while performing massage all these years without realizing it. 

I would love to conduct a study of both givers and receivers of massage to see how massage affects their brain waves. 

After exhausting what I could find about Silva’s Mind Control Method outside of Mind Valley, I realized that in order to go forward with my training and future research, I needed to connect with the Ultra Mind Quest.
