FROMTHE
EDITORBy Nelda Sheets
This issue of the SilvaNews presents information about
this years Masters Conference and the Silva Method
40th anniversary convention. As you read the speakers
biographies and the descriptions of their presentations,
imagine the joy of learning different ways that you can
incorporate the philosophy and strategies into your life. I
believe that this convention program lives up to our motto,
Better and Better If you join us, we can say, Better,
better, AND BETTER! You dont have to be a Silva
graduate; everyone is welcome.
A featured article by Max Rubio shares information about
the Silva Methods updated approach to teaching Silva
techniques using focused thinking. The message comes
from Jos Silva who, in his wisdom, taught us to go to
the alpha level and concentrate on what we desire. Rubio
explains that the importance of maintaining ones focus is
a powerful tool.
Better and better,
Nelda Sheets, Editor
P.S. I invite and encourage you to email your success
stories for a special upcoming issue. Details on page 3.

Every year the Silva convention attracts hundredsof Silva Method graduates from around the world.This year, the 40th anniversary of the Silva Meth-
od, held in coordination with Laredos 250th anniversary,promises to be our best convention ever.
We are pleased to announce that there will be no chargefor the very large exhibitor spaces; we require only a15% commission on your sales to cover our overhead,plus the mandatory Texas sales tax of 8.5%.
Our exhibit area will be loosely thematic, which meansthat we are planning a Tex-Mex motif for the vendor andbanquet area, but were not fanatical about it. If you areneither Tex nor Mex, dont worry, we welcome your par-ticipation.

Six months ago we embarked on a project to
introduce a new teaching concept to make Jos Silvas
original Silva Method program easier to understand
and benecial to more people. The new focused-
thinking delivery of the Silva Method program is
quickly helping participants understand why it works
Graduates no longer have to struggle to explain why
Silva is so valuable.
We are entering our 40th year of service with the
support of hundreds of Certied Silva Method
Instructors (CSMIs), and four million graduates
around the world. In maintaining Jos Silvas origina
proven formula as the foundation, we see that our
new way of presenting the Silva Method has success
built in. If you havent been back to refresh, now is
the time.
In our new focused thinking delivery of the Silva
Method program we are leaving behind the limiting
mystical verbiage use in the traditional delivery. We
are bringing back to focus the two things that matter
the most; the individual goals of the student and the
proven original coursework that helps them reach
those goals.
That the original Silva Method program remains
viable after 40 years is a tribute to Jos Silvas
genius for assembling his ground-breaking sixteen-
excise original formula into a coherent, progressivecourse designed to improve your focus and expand
your creative thinking. Regardless of the teacher
the student is guaranteed positive results.
Since the beginning, teaching the Silva program has
never been about the teacher. Jos Silva himself never

the exciting and
evolutionary changes
Youre so cute when youre focused!

wanted people to praise him for their successes. If
you had been fortunate enough to have met my
father-in-law, you would have taken note of how
upset he would get when someone would come up to
him after a class to say, Oh Jos, thank you so much
for changing my life! Looking at the person straight
in the eye, he would adamantly respond, No, I did
not change your life, YOU did it. I just gave you the
tools. And today, in
2006, this continues
to be our message.
Since day one, Jos
Silvas mission was
about getting people
to realize their true
human potential and
to help themselves and
their fellow men. It is
also about commitment
to practice the sixteen
Silva exercises. Silvaswish was that you
recognize how much
control you have
over your life when
you focus your mind
and reacquaint yourself with your own, personal
creativity. Mr. Silva always wanted you to obtain your
goals and to shut out negative inuences. Today, we
call it self-empowerment, and it is the keystone of
the Silva Method.
To take control of our lives some of us need morepractice than others. In addition, we live in a society
overrun with negative inuences that stie personal
progress. That is why its so valuable to use your
free, lifetime, course refresher privileges wherever
in the world you nd yourself.
Joss greatest contribution is his original Silva
Method work. He showed us how we can accomplish
whatever we desire with our own individual power
rather than depend on someone or something else.
Focused thinking simply helps us understand why the
Silva Method can help us be successful in obtaining
our desired goals in health, education, relationship,
business and sports.
Recently we have
conducted six classes
servicing 42 students
two Certied Silva
Method Instructor
seminars training 53
new CSMIs, and we
have hosted three
teleconferences, al
explaining the concept
of focused thinking.
Hilda and I were
fortunate to spend
many private, family
hours with Jos and
Paula Silva. They were
simple people who loved life and their children. They
never forgot their humble origins. In that modest
yet ebullient spirit, Hilda and I and the entire Silva
organization welcome you into our home this summer
to celebrate forty unequaled years of Silva success

In 1973 she married and had the opportu-nity to raise her amily. She took the timeto raise her two sons. Shetaught Silva to her chil-dren, as her ather taughtto her. I believe we shouldteach the Silva Method tothe young so they can con-quer any challenge thatcomes beore them.
In 1988 she returned toTe Silva Method, over-seeing the Electronics De-partment. She was able toorganize and increase theproduction o several relaxation devices.In 1992, Hilda accepted a position in theFinancial Department with the opportu-nity to improve customer service.

Are the catastrophes plaguing the earth
in recent years just a part o a normal
process, or is there another meaninga
higher patternto all o it?
Te workshop will address this subject
and is based on inormation received
through Silva graduate Lucyna Lobos
rom the Polish town o Wroclaw,who
uses hypnotic age regression as her source.
Since 2001 Ms. Lobos has conducted over
50 sessions and has dispensed a vast body
o inormation about the location o the
Pharaoh Khuus tomb, who is also known
under his Greek name, Cheops, Khuu is
the Egyptian pharaoh or whom the GreatPyramid o Giza was built. According to
Ms. Lobos, nding the mummy o Khuu
would be not only a great archeological
discovery but could also help to save
millions o lives and the earth itsel.
Trough hypnosis and telepathic
channeling Lucyna described the way
the Great Pyramid was constructed, who
constructed it and, most important, why it
was built. Based on Mayan and Egyptiantexts there is a theory that the year 2012
will be a very dicult one or humanity. It
is obvious that our planet is experiencing
a crescendo o warning signals such as
earthquakes, tsunamis, and hurricanes.
Te Great Pyramid is claimed to be a
protection or the earth and its citizens
against the imminent danger o year
2012. Te key to the Great Pyramid is

Silvas Success Formula
Claim Your Creative
Heritage
Jung reerred to the inner conscious,
and said that it is conducive to a persons
wellbeing. We Silva graduates call it level
one when we go within ourselves to
program or desired results. We call it our
laboratory level when we work cases or
want to eel centered, or eel connected to
our inner wisdom. We consider this inner
level o awareness a creative dimension
where we create our laboratory and meet
our counselors.
In this workshop, we will discuss the
laboratory and counselor as a Silva
Method technique or connecting with
your inner wisdom.

Realizing the importance and rewards
o creativity and innovation is one o
the linchpins o the Silva Method. In
this illuminating workshop you will
contemplate such provocative ideas as
whether creativity is a gi or a learnable
skill, and how creativity can convert a
dilemma into a uture o possibilities.
You will study how to develop creative
intelligence that matters most to you in
any situation. As you unlock the creative
process you will tap into your creative
centers and increase your powers o
individuality and resourceulness.
As your intuitive awareness grows and
brightens, you will understand the value o
adapting to the rapid-re changes that are
a part o our modern lie. You will sharpen
your response to challenges rom without

on a global, national and personal level.
Were in the middle o the paradigm shi
that has been talked about or many years,
and well take a good look at this.
More than ever, weve been orced to learn
and live deeply spiritual principles; that
our real security lies not in the external
world, but in our internal strength and
the resonance or level o vibration that
we emanate. As Silva graduates, we are
already aware that we now view the world
in dierently, dierent the way most o
us were raised and most o the world
still lives. Its time now to ratchet up
that knowledge so we can live the Silva
principles with ease and grace in oureveryday lie.

Te other outposts includedReynosa (1749), Dolores (1750), Revilla (1750),and Mier (1752). Since no missions or presidi-os were associated with its ounding, Laredo isconsidered the oldest independent settlement inexas and is the only remaining Spanish colonialsettlement on the north bank o the lower RioGrande.
Laredo was ounded on the north bank o theRio Grande on May 15, 1755, when Captainoms Snchez, with three amilies, was grantedpermission to settle 15 leagues o land near anIndian ord on the Rio Grande. Operated as a
amily rancho, the Snchez estate ran cattle,sheep, goats, horses, mules and oxen. In 1767,the city was laid out, and in the years to ollow,ranching became the sustenance o the colony.
Te 1757 inspection reported eleven amiliesowning 100 cattle, 125 mules, 712 horses, and9,089 sheep and goats. Te rst exas cattledrives took place along the San Antonio-Laredoroad to Saltillo in the 18th century, and Laredobecame an important rontier outpost on thelower Camino Real, or Kings Road, whichstretched rom Saltillo through San Antonio toLos Adaes. During the Spanish-Mexican period,the exas cowboy was born. Round-ups o wildcattle called mesteos were regulated by the City
Council, and brands were publicly registered.
Te Spanish settlement became a Mexican cityin 1821 when Mexico gained it independencerom Spain, and, during the early 1800s, a trad-ing economy developed as cattle hides andwool were traded south in exchange or ood
and household necessities. However, trade was
disrupted and many ranchos werewiped out by the raids o the Co-manche and Apache Indians who
reaped the spoils o war and gainedprestige in their warrior-based societies. Te Carrizos, another groupo Native Americans who practiceda hunting-gathering existence, weredecimated by disease and eventuallyassimilated into Spanish culture.
Disgruntled with the Mexican centralist governments rule by dictatorship and it
complacency in deending the northern rontierom Indian attack, many Laredoans supportedthe constitutional convention which created thRepublic o the Rio Grande on January 7, 1840Laredo became a capital o the new republicwhich attempted to unite amaulipas, Nuevo
Leon, and parts o South exas. Aer severaskirmishes with the Mexican army, the shortlived republic came to an end, enduring only283 days. Although the Republic o exas, whichhad won its independence rom Mexico in 1836attempted to claim Laredo, its citizens remainedloyal to Mexico aer the deeat o the Republico the Rio Grande.
In 1845, the annexation o exas by the United States led to the declaration o war againstMexico. Shortly aer the all o Mexico, the RioGrande was declared the boundary between theUnited States and Mexico. Under the reaty oGuadalupe Hidalgo, Laredo ocially becamepart o exas. Mexicans who wanted to retain
their citizenship moved across the river. Tisarea previously settled as part o Laredo wasnamed Nuevo Laredo in 1848. An estimated 120reugee amilies planted their roots and grew toa population o around 2,000 in the 1870s.n
