Silva Method

The Silva Method is a self-help and meditation program developed by José Silva. It claims to increase an individual's abilities through relaxation, development of higher brain functions, and psychic abilities such as clairvoyance.[1]

It has been variously classified as a self-religion,[2] a new religious movement, and a cult,[3] and has been criticised as pseudoscience.[4]
