Part 1

Silva Mind-Control & Self-Improvement Training

This is a fundamental technique in the Silva Method, designed to bring the mind into a deeply relaxed state known as the alpha brainwave state or level. It is believed that in this state, the mind becomes more receptive to suggestions and able to focus more intensely.

This aspect focuses on clearing the mind of negative thoughts and beliefs and replacing them with positive affirmations. The process is akin to tidying up one’s mental space to foster a positive and constructive mindset.

The Silva Method encourages individuals to identify and overcome beliefs that limit their potential. It teaches techniques to recognise self-imposed limitations and reframe them into empowering beliefs.

This technique aims to help individuals enter sleep consciously, improve the quality of rest, and feel more rested by controlling their sleep cycles.

This is a method for developing an internal sense of time, allowing individuals to “programme” themselves to recognise specific times for waking up or completing tasks without the need for a physical clock.

This technique is designed to help individuals access their body’s reserve energy to remain alert and awake, even in tiresome situations. By using specific mental exercises, one can stimulate the mind and body to fight off fatigue and maintain concentration and performance when it’s most needed.

This involves becoming aware of dreams and tapping into information through them. It can be used for problem-solving, creativity, and overcoming nightmares.

A practice in hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis where one induces their hand to rise with the power of their mind, often as a gateway to deeper trance states.

This technique teaches how to mitigate headaches through focused visualisation and mind-body connection practices.

This is a pain management technique where one learns to create a numbing sensation, as if wearing an anaesthetic glove, which can then be transferred to other parts of the body.

A technique for problem-solving that involves using a glass of water as a symbolic tool for “drinking in” the problem before sleep, with the expectation that the subconscious mind will work on a solution.

This visualisation tool is akin to an internal movie screen where one can project images for the purpose of creative visualisation, problem-solving, and rehearsing future events.

A simple conditioning technique where one presses together the thumb, index, and middle fingers to enter a state of deep concentration and recall information learned previously.

A more advanced visualisation technique intended to help individuals “reflect” on problems and their solutions, using a mental mirror to project desired outcomes.

This method is aimed at helping individuals break undesirable habits through the power of mental rehearsal and positive visualisation.

Part 2

The Silva Intuition Training (SIT)

This technique involves using the mind to project one’s consciousness to different entities or places. It can be a home, a metal object, plants, pets, or even parts of the human anatomy. This practice is believed to enhance one’s intuitive and psychic abilities, allowing for a deeper understanding or connection with the subject of the projection.

In the Silva Method, the ‘Laboratory’ is a mental space created within one’s mind where complex problems can be analysed and solved. It’s a place for deep thinking and reflection, where one can meet with their higher self or other imagined advisers to gain insights and guidance.

This technique involves creating mental images of expert advisers or counsellors in one’s mental laboratory. These counsellors can be real or imaginary figures who ‘advise’ and provide solutions or guidance in various aspects of life, tapping into the subconscious mind’s potential.

This is a practice in the Silva Method where practitioners use their developed intuitive capabilities to analyse and solve real-life cases or problems. It often involves projecting one’s consciousness to gather information or insights that are not readily apparent or accessible through conventional means.

⚠️ Important Notice: Protecting Your Data & Integrity of Silva Method Services over Disputed Activities

Published by Silva Method (GB) Ltd – April 2025

Silva Method (GB) Ltd wishes to inform our students, graduates, and the community of ongoing concerns related to the promotion of Silva Method-branded services via a new website and individuals no longer affiliated with us.

❌ Background: Termination of Mr. Aktar Chowdhury


On 4th December 2024, Mr. Aktar Chowdhury’s role as a certified Silva Method instructor was officially terminated by Silva Method (GB) Ltd due to multiple contractual breaches, including:

  • Unauthorised sharing of confidential internal documents.
  • Engaging in efforts to build a competing Silva-branded business during his time with us.
  • Violating key clauses around confidentiality, exclusivity, and non-compete obligations.


As part of his termination, Mr. Chowdhury was legally reminded of his obligations — including a non-compete clause and restrictions on using any Silva Method intellectual property, student data, or operational material obtained during his tenure.

Importantly, Silva International was made aware of Mr. Chowdhury’s misconduct at the time — and he was subsequently removed from their official instructor directory, following communication from then-director Gabriel Ostend, who personally raised concerns about Mr. Chowdhury’s conduct.

⚠️ silvamethoduk.com — A Business Under Dispute


We have since observed that Mr. Chowdhury is now operating as Director of a new website — silvamethoduk.com — which presents itself as a provider of Silva Method courses in the UK.

The branding and structure of this site closely mirror that of Silva Method (GB) Ltd, raising significant concerns regarding the unauthorised use of materials, format, and possibly student data. The legitimacy and oversight of this operation are currently being formally challenged by our company, and the matter is now part of an active legal dispute.

🔐 Data Protection & Your Privacy Rights


Silva Method (GB) Ltd is the legal custodian of student and client data gathered through its operations in the UK. We operate in full compliance with UK data protection laws and take the misuse of personal data extremely seriously.

We have reason to believe that individuals involved in the new website may be improperly using contact data acquired while affiliated with Silva Method (GB) Ltd, in violation of their legal obligations.


If you are contacted unexpectedly by someone claiming to offer Silva Method services, we strongly advise you to:

  • Avoid disclosing personal or payment information.
  • Cross-check with our official website and communications.
  • Contact us directly to verify the source.
🛑 A Cautionary Message Before You Engage


Silva Method (GB) Ltd urges its student community and the general public to exercise caution and refrain from engaging in transactions with silvamethoduk.com or its affiliated personnel, pending resolution of this matter.
