[Please note: The age range specified in the title is more of a guideline than a rule. You know your own child, are they a mature 9 year old who would benefit more from the 10-14 The Avatars course? Are they a 15 year old who would get along better with the 10-14 olds? It is entirely to your discretion of which course you sign them up for.]

What is the Silva Method?

The Silva Mind Management Method is a scientifically based, simple, practical, easy-to-learn self-development method based on relaxation, positive self-talk and visualisation. It enables us to use our mind more effectively, manage tensions caused by stress, exploit our inherent abilities to a greater extent and solve our everyday problems more successfully. It is independent of religions and ideologies.

Why should your child take the Youth Lecture Series?

Every child has the potential to excel at something. The question is, will they get the most out of themselves?

We are all born geniuses with an amazing supercomputer - our brain. We don't even know what abilities we have until we start using it consciously!

The Silva Mind Management Method gives your child a scientific, practical, easy to learn method to use their brain more effectively and maximise their potential. These techniques enable your child to easily understand how to live an improved life of their own design and concepts such as cause and effect, and taking responsibility for how they think and behave.

They will learn the power of positive and resourceful thinking leading them to develop life-building confidence and a strong self-esteem.

The Youth Lecture Series also emphasizes stress management, the improvement of study skills, setting effective goals, and how to cope with life's daily challenges.

By regularly practicing the Silva Techniques, your child can become happier, healthier and become a better student.

How can your child benefit from learning the Silva Method?

During the course, children will learn techniques to

• Eliminate negative, self-defeating thoughts and replace them with constructive, positive thoughts. They will learn what positive thinking is and why it is important.
• Overcome stress and anxiety, which they can use to overcome exam stress.
• Overcome attention problems, they will be able to concentrate better.
• Improve their memory, learn better; they will be more successful at school and thus also later in life.
• Fall asleep and wake up more easily, even without an alarm clock.
• Have better sleep and manage their bad dreams if necessary.
• Leave their bad habits behind (e.g., nail biting, bed wetting, chewing loudly etc.).
• Make good decisions quickly, even at such a young age. They learn the importance of the right goals and the means to achieve them.
• Manage pain and stop bleeding.
• Keep themselves in good health, treating their ailments without drugs.

A child who possesses these skills will have an advantage for the rest of their life.

Upon completion of the course, participants receive a certificate of attendance and a Silva GB ID card, with which they can later participate in the adult course, or even repeat the Youth Mind Management course [YLS: Youth Lecture Series 10-14], at a discounted price.

At the end of the second day, there is an hour-long ‘masterclass’ for parents, where we briefly touch on the concepts and techniques we have covered during the course. We would also like to enlist your cooperation in helping you foster an encouraging home environment and helping your child practice the techniques at home. We highly recommend that at least one of the parents attends this session.

About the instructor

Presenter: Ginger Csom Certified Silva Method Instructor

I have more than twenty years of teaching experience; mostly teaching sciences to 11-18 year olds. I have seen first-hand what a difference it can make when children believe in themselves. In a world where judgement and criticism of others is ripe in schools and on social media, being secure in the knowledge of one’s own abilities and gifts can help strengthen a positive self-image, confidence, and a positive outlook on life.

Children are excellent at learning, often beyond what we give them credit for, when the information is presented to them at their own level.

The Silva Youth Lecture Series teaches higher-level concepts in a way that is easy for children to process and master. When children incorporate the Silva techniques into their lives, they become more well-rounded, confident adults.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are the age limits?

The age limit (10-14 years old) is for guidance. If the child is younger than 10 but the parent considers them mature enough to sit through an intensive 2-day course with older peers, they will be welcome.  If your child is older but quite playful still, then this class maybe more suited to them than the 4-day BLS ,aimed at adults. If you are unsure, please do ask.

How big are the classes?

Places are limited to 15-20 children, dependent on venue. Classes will have no more than 20 children.
