      Mind Control

      "Mind Control" by Jose Silva.
      Has anyone heard of/read this?

      I've heard its pretty cool and has to do with controlling your mind during alpha wave activity. Im guessing its closer to Yoga than Lucid Dreaming but they DO seem similar in that they can both help you improve your waking life if used correctly.

      What do you guys think? worth the read? Im currently reading ETWOLD. Great book, so yeah. Just asking you all for your opinion

      Welcome to Dreamviews!

      Sorry to say, I haven't heard of the book. I do know that there are people on DV who are very interested in things like dream yoga. Personally, I believe that there is a lot to dream yoga, especially the way it stresses a sort of constant awareness/mindfulness to acheive lucidity.

      I haven't heard of the book either, but may definitely be interested.

      I do pretty regular runs to Chapters to pick up a few books every so often. I get books faster than I can read them, literally. I'll look it up next time I'm out

      I never read the book but I think I have an idea of what you are talking about. Some people claim that they can put themselves into these low brainwave states and subconsciously learn stuff. I don't know how it works or how easy this can be done.

      I got this off the main site:

      The Silva Method
      an idea whose time has come

      This powerful, life-changing technique in subjective education developed over fifty years ago by José Silva is the only system that delivers a systematic process that allows you to evolve your untapped ESP.

      It's so easy

      The Silva Method is brought to you through a series of lectures and mind-training exercises that blend the most effective concepts with the latest scientifically proven techniques in personal and spiritual growth.

      Achieve Wholeness and Wellbeing

      The Silva Method is based on the knowledge that we are dualistic in nature; we are physical and we are spiritual. By training ourselves to learn to discern information accessed with our subjective senses, information that exists from the microcosm all the way to the macrocosm. We are able to solve problems of all kinds, regardless of whether they are rooted in the past, exist in the present or may exist in the future.

      Live the Life of Your Own Design

      How you think, believe and behave dictates your living experience. By learning to effectively use the invisible, intangible parts of your self, and by making simple, positive changes, you can live a powerful life of your own design.

      The goal of the Silva Method is to teach you how to use more of your brain and activate the untapped areas of your mind while learning to think, believe and behave in ways that will attract more of what you want in your living experience.

      Free Yourself

      Within you lies the secret that unlocks life's possibilities. To realize it you have only to develop the natural mental power of attraction we all possess.

      A Richer Life

      With the Silva Method millions have discovered the astounding power of the mind. It's time for you to make a difference in your life and the lives of others.

      Enduring the test of time–and still leading the way–the Silva Method.

      The Silva Method: Serving Humanity Better

      But yes its very ehmm.. In touch with yourself. I can see where you'd get that idea. lol
