Richard Bach credits Silva Method with helping him write the hit book "Jonathan Livingstone Seagull"

Best selling author of "Jonathan Livingston Seagull", Richard Bach, said in an interview in Harper's Bazaar magazine "It was the weirdest experience of my life. I was walking along one night, worrying about the rent money when I heard this voice say 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull'. But no one was there. I had absolutely no idea what it meant. When I went home, I suddenly had a visualization of a seagull flying along, and I began to write. I just put down what I saw. Richard Bach praised the Silva course publicly: "Mental discipline and creative visualization are what's behind the power of the Silva Method", he said in an article in Harper's Bazaar magazine. His book went on the sell over a million copies and even made the cover of Time Magazine.
