"I have learned to appreciate what I have and enjoy the day as much as possible."

I found Silva System through an online class I was taking. I am always open to new things to control stress, as I am on disability for PTSD, and after running through the gamut of mental health counselors, I still was left with dealing with my past without tools. So, I began to gather ways to deal with this - things therapists never even mentioned.

I have studied/taught the martial arts for 25 years, and so expanding the consciousness is nothing new for me. In fact, I quit studying the sword because it opened my mind up far more than I was comfortable with.

Once I began the Silva meditation, I begin to notice results immediately. At first it was hard getting through the 30-minute meditation, I would fall asleep, but as time went on, I was able to get through that. I felt so much better, I signed up for the first offer. These meditations are very helpful. I love the "Daisy Pond," but what has helped the most is the three finger's technique and "mirror of the mind."

I haven't slept much, and the lack of sleep and the immense stress has taken it's toll. There are also nights I keep myself awake because when I do sleep, all I have is nightmares. Being awake is sometimes better. I believe this is why I fell asleep during the meditation, because I was finally able to relax my mind enough to let everything go.

The 3-fingers technique is absolutely amazing. When I lose something, I put my fingers together, and instead of searching for hours on end, I find what I'm looking for in a matter of minutes. When I am stressed, I put my fingers together and imagine being calm, and I calm down.

With the mirror of the mind, I am able to take the stressors and make them disappear - some things have not come back to haunt me since doing this. Some things are not as easy to resolve, though, but I listen to the alpha sound several times a day because it calms my mind.

Now, by applying these methods, I know that whatever I desire will manifest itself. I must be very careful of what I ask for.

As soon as I found how beneficial this was for me, I told my daughter about it, and she has been using the Silva Method faithfully. She talks about the benefits, and I can clearly see an improvement in her attitude.  

Now, I live each day as it comes. I have learned to appreciate what I have and not ask for more, and enjoy the day as much as possible, because I never know when that final trigger will send me over the edge.

I am happy that I have found a way to control my stress/triggers as much as is possible.
