Neil deGrasse, Tyson takes those concepts of physics, astrophysics, that you that only a handful of scientists will be able to read in their journals. And he sells it to everybody. And that is an amazing way of communicating. The recent book that I'm almost done with, I'm about to publish is called a brief history of autonomous vehicle, because that's the domain I work in. And I really try to follow Neil deGrasse Tyson, because the book is or everyone. And that's like communicating at that level. So that everybody understands, is really the name of the game. Because there was one joke, somebody said that, you know, we have such a good professor coming in that he's so good that nobody will understand him. But that's not a good professor, a good professor, is one that even the guests will understand everything. Terrific reminder, interesting analogy. Yes, he's so good that no one will understand him. And that's not something that anyone wants to have said about themselves. ----- I have to also train my people, don't give me the details, I only need three numbers because there are like 2000 things on my table. If I go to the details, there's no way I can. ----- First. I would say empathize - empathy, empathy and empathy. Empathy is really the key. Once you're able to empathize, the second part is if you're if you're a leader, you have to be precise. And one very interesting thing that the difference between leader and a manager, your job is not to give a task of a leader. A leaders job is to give a mission, and how can you articulate that mission and the vision with your team, and somehow li that mission and vision with their life mission and vision, using empathy? That's the formula and a curious challenge for all leaders out there and definitely something worth working on. ----- ----more---- Your host is George Torok George is a specialist in executive communication skills.

Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast and PART 4, our FINAL part, of our Review of Jose Silva's Mind Control Program. I'm Andrea Samadi an author and an educator, who like many of you listening, have been fascinated with learning and understanding the science behind ANY high-performance strategy proven to increase our results in our schools, sports, or modern workplaces. If there's something NEW that I come across that can help us in any way, I'll investigate it, connect it with the most current research, and then share what I learn with you here. My goal with this 4 PART review of the popular program from the 1980s and 1990s, The Silva Method[i], is to help all of us to learn something new to refine our current meditation practice whether we are working in our schools to improve learning, in our sports environments for improved results towards a specific goal, or in the corporate workplace to generate new ideas. I wouldn't have picked this book to review if it hadn't made such an impact on the world, like Napoleon Hills' Think and Grow Rich book that currently sits as our most downloaded episode of 2022 after we reviewed it last January to kick off our New Year. Before starting this review, that I hoped would give us a running start to 2023, I had no idea the concepts I would learn each week, would be so powerful, deep, and life-changing requiring more thought than usual while writing each episode. I began this 4 PART book review the end of November, around Thanksgiving in the United States, and shortly after releasing the first episode, I began receiving emails from around the world from people who were interested to learn more about The Silva Method. Some were remembering it from the 80s/90s when Jose Silva ran this program globally, and others were asking me where they could find a live seminar. It was Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, EPISODE #260[ii] who held up an old copy of The Silva Mind Control Method book, sharing how it had impacted his life, jogging my memory of Jose Silva, who I had heard of years ago, while selling seminars in the motivational speaking industry. Then my good friend Hans Ajay from the UK, urged me to sign up for the full program through MindValley[iii], where the course sits today after Vishen Lakhiani (the founder) revised and improved it in this current version. Hans wrote “It'll be transformative” and little did I know just how transformative it would be. As I'm writing this episode now, and the final part of this review, I'm nearing the end of Vishen Lakhiani's Silva UltraMind Course[iv] through the MindValley website. I can now see that this is a program that you never really complete, like I noticed with Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich[v] book, for Hill intended the book to be read more than one time for the concepts to be mastered in one's lifetime. Jose Silva's book is exactly the same way, and his online UltraMind Course, the experiential side of the program (that consists of the lessons from his book, mixed with meditations) bring the pages of The Silva Method to life in a way I never imagined just by reading the book. I've got to say, this course has really blown my mind, and expanded my thinking in a way I hadn't imagined at the start of this review. REMEMBER: “When a person learns to function mentally at this deeper level, creativity is enhanced. Memory is improved and a person is better able to solve problems.” (Jose Silva). Today I plan finish the review of The Silva Method, and while I won't be going into every chapter, I've picked the ones that I think are relevant to help all of us with “The Basics” of what Jose Silva intended us to learn. Then we will take these basic concepts that Jose Silva found to be transformative, (like my friend Hans Ajay noticed) and APPLY them to our daily life, connecting the science to our creativity and innovation, using Dr. Andrew Huberman's most recent podcast episode on “The Science of Creativity: How to Enhance Creative Innovation.”[vi] Finally, I will provide clear examples of innovation and creativity from three of our past guests; one in each of the sectors we study here, our schools, sports environments and corporate workplaces with the goal to inspire YOU to enhance your own creativity for improved results in 2023, using the Silva Method. I just wish Jose Silva could have seen the mounds of research that prove what he knew to be true with his Meditation Method, and that he wouldn't have to disguise it as “bio-feedback” in the corporate world today. DISCLAIMER: I want to mention that while I'm enjoying the Online UltraMind Course, I am not at all affiliated with Mind Valley, or the CEO Vishen Lakhiani, but I did hear my mentor Bob Proctor talking about his organization over the years, knowing he supported their work, but I had no idea that Jose Silva's program would end up there. While I'm only reviewing the book here, (and not what I'm learning in the online course-I might do this at a later date after implementing the concepts) I do think it's important to include some of the meditations I found online in PART 3 of this review, to show you what they consist of. I've listed them in the resource section below for you to use. I've also put a snapshot of the topics covered over the 28 day online program, and while I'm currently at DAY 21/28, I can say that mastering the ideas in the book are a good place to start if you would like to improve your current meditation practice and then I will show you how this will enhance your creativity and ability for innovation. I think this 4 PART review could be used to jumpstart us all on the right foot for 2023. If you would like to go deeper into The Silva Method, I do suggest taking the online Silva UltraMind System, but caution that to get the most out of the program, that daily practice will be required. This is a course that you would want to carve out some time for. PUTTING THE 4 PARTS of THE SILVA METHOD TOGETHER: TO REVIEW PART 1 of THE SILVA METHOD EPISODE #261: We covered: ✔ CH 1- Using More of Our Mind in Special Ways: An Introduction to the Silva Mind Control Method. If you have begun using your mind to create a mental screen for heightened visualization, you could end this book review here and still be miles ahead in 2023. Central to Jose's Silva Method of Mind Control is with the power of visualization, and he says “right from the beginning, from the very moment you reach your meditative level (what he calls accessing the Alpha State), you must learn to practice visualization. The better you learn to visualize, the more powerful will be your experience with Mind Control.” With time and practice, it will be this screen that you will learn how to help yourself and others. You begin with creating simple things, until you are ready to solve small problems in your daily life, from work, to health, and improve learning/creativity. As you progress through this program, you can learn to use the screen of your mind to for more advanced innovative and creative ideas. There is no limit to what you could create here. ✔ What this program has done for others. The late Dr. Wayne Dyer has said that anything with the name Jose Silva as the author has his vote before I open to page one. He said “Read it with a pen for underlining.” Jose Silva himself noted that: ✔A marketing company used it to create 18 new products. ✔14 Chicago White Socks players used it to boost their scores. ✔ Celebrities have used it and credit Jose Silva for improving their focus and creativity. ✔ Colleges and universities have used it to help students study less, but learn more. And during the Silva UltraMind course, (the online program I joined while doing this book review) I had the chance to participate on a training call one evening with all the new students who had recently come on board with MindValley, (that has over 10 million students worldwide, studying over 200 speakers and authors on the site), and the moderator asked what course people were studying, and people started chiming into the chat from the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and remote countries around the world…that they were ALL here to study The Silva Method. I was floored! Mostly because I had thought this training call would have just a handful of people coming on board. I didn't expect so many participants globally, and ALL of them were there to study the same course I was there for. It took mind-boggling to a whole new level when I started to put together that this program was something that people are still very interested in learning about. ✔ Ch 2- Meet Jose Silva and learned about his passion for helping others to improve their ability to learn. He was a humble man who worked very hard to develop the ideas within his program, and was very careful about how he presented his ideas as visualization was not something that was widely accepted in the corporate world in the 80s and 90s. In his live events, he was smart to introduce his concepts as bio-feedback (that had more credibility at the time) and were more readily accepted, before introducing business executives to more advanced concepts of the mind (like using visualization) on the second day of the training. ✔ Ch 3- How to Meditate: A review of the brain states (BETA,ALPHA,THETA,DELTA). He learned that we spend most of our waking time at the BETA brain state, where we can feel the stress and anxiousness of daily life, so finding ways to relax (that he calls going to the Alpha State) can be helpful. His online program does cover how to access the Theta level of mind for increased intuition, and offers a strategy for solving problems in your sleep at the Delta level. ✔ We were Introduced to Using A Mental Screen in Your Mind for Heightened Visualization. It Will Be This Screen That We Will Use to Help Yourself and Others in Future Chapters. *** I would say developing the use of this screen is the KEY to the entire program. It's where your goals will begin to form, or where you will work with NEW ideas that come into your mind. I've heard it be called “your workshop” or where you create something new in your mind, and with time and practice, what you put on this screen becomes clearer and clearer. TO REVIEW PART 2 of THE SILVA METHOD EPISODE #262: We covered: ✔ Ch 4- Dynamic Meditation (where we actually DO something while meditating, instead of it being a passive practice). We learn how to be more in control of our life using visualization. Dr. Andrew Huberman's research does tie in the importance of using meditation to improve our creativity, and I will expand on this at the end of this episode. ✔ The 4 Laws that must be in place BEFORE we visualize a goal. (We must desire the event to take place that we want, we must believe the event we want will take place, we must EXPECT the event to take place, and we must ONLY be working with something that will benefit ourselves and others. ✔ I noticed How these 4 Laws mirror Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich book and wondered if Jose Silva did this intentionally. ✔ 3 STEPS to SOLVE ANY PROBLEM Using the Silva Method on the Screen that We Build in Our Mind. ✔ Ch 5- Improving Memory ✔ Where Silva's Memory Hacks have been seen on previous episodes and in the motivational speaking industry. TO REVIEW PART 3 of THE SILVA METHOD EPISODE #263: We covered: ✔ Chapter 6 on Speed Learning: Using the mental screen paired with the 3-finger technique if you want to learn something quickly, using the Alpha Brain State. Silva also covered recording your voice, or creating what I knew of as the “loop tape” of whatever it is that you want to remember. You would record what you want to remember in the BETA State, and then listen to it in the Alpha state (using the 3 finger technique or counting backwards). ✔ Chapter 7 on Creative Dreams where we covered 4 strategies for remembering our dreams, and taking them seriously like Jose Silva himself did. For PART 4 and today's episode, of the SILVA METHOD, Episode #265 we will finish looking at the book, and will cover: ✔ Ch 8-Your Words Have Power ✔ Ch 9-The Power of Imagination ✔ Ch 10-Using Your Mind to Improve Your Health ✔ We will connect the most current neuroscience research to Jose Silva's program, using Dr. Andrew Huberman's podcast on "The Science of Creativity" ✔ The 3 Parts to Your Creative Brain (Central Executive Network, Default Mode Network, Salience Network). ✔ 2 Types of Thinking Involved with Creativity (Divergent and Convergent) ✔ Putting Creativity to Practice with an example from our schools, sports and modern workplace environments. with some clear examples and next steps for all of us to APPLY the Silva Method for improved Intuition, Creativity and Focus…right in time for a New Year. Chapter 8: Your Words Have Power I'm sure we've all heard of the importance of thinking and speaking positive words over negative ones, and Jose Silva would agree with this. In this chapter, he talks about a nurse-anesthetist (and one of his eventual lecturers) from Oklahoma, Mrs. Jean Mabrey, who puts this knowledge of the mind to use to help her patients. As soon as they are “under”—in deep anesthesia—she would whisper in their ears instructions that would speed their recovery, and in some cases save their lives. Jose Silva would say “First, words have special power at deep levels of mind; second, the mind has much firmer command over the body than it is given credit for; and third, as I noted in Chapter 5, we are always conscious.” Here's another one if Silva's principles that I learned from the speaking industry. Bob Proctor used to tell a story on stage, of how he would whisper success secrets into the ears of his children when they were little. While they are grown now, this story stuck with me, as we want the best for our own kids. So when I had children, this is the first thing I did. I would drop into my child's room just before they were about to drift off to sleep and tell them something that would go deep into their subconscious mind. I'd say something like “you'll do whatever it is you want. Whatever you can dream you'll do it!” I did this almost every night with my first…and with my second, not as often. She needed it more…. Now to think about it, I even spoke to my girls before they were born, letting them know how excited we were to meet them and how much fun we would have when they arrived. Be very careful about the words we use and how they trigger our brains. We are always conscious. Since this concept was drilled into my head early on in the speaking industry, I learned early on to be careful of everything I say, and everything I think. If someone says “How are you?” and I'm not feeling 100%, the best way to answer this question is with a positive angle like “Getting better and better every day” to move myself in that direction. An answer like “not bad” would according to Silva, hit the brain in a negative way, as it would only hear “bad” instead of “good.” I can tie the research to this as well, with my mentor Mark Robert Waldman who wrote Words Can Change Your Brain with Andrew Newberg, MD[vii]. In this book, they explain that “the more you stay focused on negative words and thoughts, the more you can actually damage key structures that regulate your memory, feelings, and emotions.You may disrupt your sleep, your appetite, and the way your brain regulates happiness, longevity, and health. That's how powerful a single negative word or phrase can be. And if you vocalize your negativity, even more stress chemicals will be released, not only in your brain, but in the listener's brain as well. You'll both experience increased anxiety and irritability, and it will generate mutual distrust, thereby undermining the ability to build empathy and cooperation. The same thing happens in your brain when you listen to arguments on the radio or see a violent scene in a movie. The brain, it turns out, doesn't distinguish between fantasies and facts when it perceives a negative event. Instead it assumes that a real danger exists in the world.” Words Can Change Your Brain Jose Silva had it right when he said “Words have special power at deep levels of mind, the mind has a firmer command over the body than it's given credit for, and third, we are always conscious.” Jose Silva Be careful with every word that you think, and speak. Words do have power. Chapter 9: The Power of Your Imagination We dove deep into this concept in part 3 of our review of Think and Grow Rich[viii] earlier this year that I can now see was of high interest to listeners as it had over 1400 downloads. On this episode, we looked at the fact that our lives reflect how well we use our imagination, because when we hit one plateau of success, it will be our imagination that will take us to what's next. Author Earl Nightingale said that “imagination is everything” and as we will see with the Silva Method, all great inventions are created in two separate places: the mind of the inventor, and the physical world when the inventor creates it. There is no doubt in my mind that Silva was influenced by Hill's Think and Grow Rich book. He says it himself in this chapter that “imagination seizes directly on the goal; it gets what it wants” and elaborates by saying this is why he “placed so much emphasis on your learning true-to-life visualization at the deep levels of mind. If you spur your imagination with belief, desire and expectancy, and train to visualize your goals so that you see, feel, hear, taste and touch them, you will get what you want.” (Ch9, The Silva Method). This is why mastering your mental screen for visualization is so important. If there is ONE part of the Silva Method that I think we could all benefit from, it's this one. Learning to use the mental screen on our mind. It's this mental screen where you will solve small and larger problems, and learn to help yourself and others in many different ways. It's the starting block that must be mastered over time, and not rushed. Chapter 10-Using Your Mind to Improve Your Health We've covered this topic in a few places on this podcast, on EPISODE #234[ix] with Ashok Gupta on “Health and Happiness: Getting to the Root of Chronic Pain and Illness” where Ashok Gupta showed us how chronic pain or illness occurs in the brain with a vicious loop of inflammation/irritation that he has successfully been treating with patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Long-Haul Covid, Fibromyalgia, Chemical or Mold Sensitivities, Gut Issues, Anxiety, Lyme Disease and many more, with a meditation program he designed called The Gupta Program that combines brain-training in conjunction with working with a medical doctor for healing. Then physician and neurologist Dr. Phillippe Douyon shared his story of overcoming illness on EPISODE #241[x] with positive thinking at the root of his recovery. Jose Silva was far ahead of his time with his understanding of using mind control for self-healing. This chapter is near the end of the book, and is mastered by students with time and practice, and I have to say that I had heard of using the mind for healing when my Mom was undergoing treatment for Cancer in the late 1990s. I told Dr. Douyon about her strategy for healing, and he said he had heard of many patients of his, successfully overcoming serious health challenges, and that positive thinking and visualizing health were at the very root of their healing, like Silva believed. In this chapter, Silva talks about cancer specialist, O. Carl Simonton, who Simonton who was trained by Silva and his Mind Control techniques was featured in Prevention Magazine in an article called “Mind Over Cancer” where he shared that the patients who recovered all had something in common. He said they were “often positive, optimistic, determined people.” (Ch 10, The Silva Method). In this chapter Silva talks about the idea of self-healing using your mental screen, but he also touches on something that goes a bit beyond our usual level of thinking, in Chapter 12 that Silva called “ESP” or Extra Sensory Perception that he believed we all had. He worked closely with J.B Rhine at Duke University to understand this subject, and bring his experiments into his understanding, but it's important to note that Silva believed this concept could be developed and strengthened over time to help his students improve self-healing, healing of others, improve their intuition, and strengthen their mental screen practice. He touches on this in the book, and his online program goes into great detail of how exactly this is done with activities using the screen of our mind, to psychometry, and is something I've been fascinated with since I first heard about this over 20 years ago. I'll be sure to cover this topic again in the future, as it one I'm still learning and exploring. I'm sure you can see now what Silva meant when he said “Once we learn to use our minds to train it, it will do some astounding things for us, as you will soon see.” This brings me to the end of PART 4 and our REVIEW of The Silva Method: To conclude this 4 PART REVIEW of The Silva Method, I want to look at how we can use what we've learned throughout this review of the Silva Method, to improve our Creativity in 2023 for Innovation in your specific line of work. This is where I'll take the research, and tie it to The Silva Method, showing us that we all have the ability to be creative, and how to improve this area of our life in the New Year. This is a deep topic, requiring some thought, that goes along with just how comprehensive Silva's Method is. To make this applicable for all of us, I'll be using concepts from Dr. Andrew Huberman's most recent podcast on “The Science of Creativity and How to Enhance Creative Innovation” tying in Jose Silva's Method to bring these 4 PARTS of our book review applicable to all of us, whether we are educators working in our classrooms, working in the sports industry, or in our modern workplaces. WE CONNECT DR. HUBERMAN'S RESEARCH TO THIS EPISODE FROM HIS EPISODE ON ENHANCING YOUR CREATIVITY. HOW CAN WE USE THE SILVA METHOD TO ENHANCE CREATIVITY AND INNOVATION IN 2023? To close out this episode, let go straight to the research. Did you know that according to American neuroscientist and associate professor at Stanford School of Medicine, Dr. Andrew Huberman “the ability to be creative resides in everybody? We know that because the neural circuits that underlie creativity have been somewhat defined and the steps and processes in the brain that lead to creativity are well known.” What Makes Something Creative? Jose Silva would have loved this research, especially when Dr. Huberman ties many studies to meditation and the brain/creativity, but let's begin with the idea of defining creativity. What makes something creative? Dr. Huberman spent over 2 hours on his podcast diving thoroughly and deeply into this topic, that I will narrow down for this episode. He explains that “most people don't know how to access creativity” or “they do it in a limited manner” and I'll agree with him here. As you will see, coming up with an idea that's creative, and innovative takes time, effort and years of work, making connections, using your executive functions in your brain to cross off what's not relevant and then testing these connections, to see what's left over that you will keep, hoping they are creative and relevant to others. Dr. Huberman explains that “when we see something that's truly creative, it reveals something to us about the natural world and about how our brains work….It must reveal something that surprises us” for it to be truly creative. Then, “something pops out at us” he says, “we hear something in the words with music, or if we see something, feel, or experience something” “and something pops out to us as exciting….this reveals something about our brain/our auditory system, creating NEW meaning for us.” AND “when we see, hear, feel or experience something that's truly creative, the way our neural circuits function is changed. When our neural circuits are changed simply by what comes into our eyes, ears of the way we experience our feelings, there's a release of chemicals like dopamine that make us feel surprised, delighted or excited in anticipation that we will see it again.” (Dr. Huberman) So when I say that “the ability to be creative resides in everyone” it does, since we ALL have the same structures in our brain, but some people have learned to use certain parts of their brain to foster creativity in ways that others have not. This is where practicing the Silva Method comes in. THE 3 NETWORKS TO YOUR CREATIVE BRAIN: Dr. Huberman went on to explain that there are 3 networks in the brain that are involved in coming up with a CREATIVE idea, and we've covered these 3 parts of the brain extensively on EPISODE #48[xi] on “Brain Network Theory.” It was here where we covered The Default Mode Network, The Central Executive Network, and the Salience Network that are all involved with coming up a truly creative idea. While I'm not going to dive into each part of the brain and what it's doing (you can review episode 48 where we show how these 3 parts of the brain must work together to improve our imagination and creativity), I just want to point out that coming up with a creative idea takes some brain power. When you are working with the screen of your mind in the Silva Method, you will be using all three of these parts of your brain to come up with new ideas. Your CEN (Central Executive Network) will help you to suppress ideas, actions or choices, your DMN (Default Mode Network) will help you to access your library of previous memories that you will be using to create your NOVEL idea, and your SN (Salience Network) will help you to make choices of what's most relevant to you. You will use your brain to create something NEW and USEFUL by rearranging existing elements (from your memory bank) into new combinations that reveals something fundamental about how we and the world works. 2 TYPES OF THINKING ARE INVOLVED: The final part of creating something CREATIVE and INNOVATIVE is that it's done by going back and forth between two types of thinking: Divergent Thinking: Where we take a known object in the world, and expand upon this idea, the more ideas the better, wandering through your ideas that you already know (from your memory bank) with the hopes that the connections you make reveals something new to others. Convergent Thinking: That's the opposite of divergent thinking, but it's where we use focus and persistence to narrow in on an idea that makes sense in the real world. If you want to dive deeper into Dr. Andrew Huberman's thorough explanation of Creativity and the Brain[xii], he takes things much deeper than I will here, in his recent episode that goes well over 2 hours. He doesn't miss anything and even goes on to show us the parts of the brain that light up when we are involved in divergent vs convergent thinking, and the 2 types of meditation that are proven to improve each of these ways of thinking. He says that “open monitored meditation” (like just closing your eyes and paying attention to your thoughts without judgement) is well documented to improve our divergent thinking capability, and focused attention meditation (like staring at a flame of light) is a way to improve our convergent thinking capabilities. PUTTING CREATIVITY INTO PRACTICE: When thinking about how to close out this 4 PART review, and make it applicable to all of us, I had to spend some time thinking hard about this one. I didn't want to just end this review without some solid research backing up the validity of The Silva Method, with some clear examples of those who have shown innovation and creativity who we've come across on this podcast. It wasn't difficult to find someone in each of the three sectors we cover, and now that I've tied the research to creative thinking, I'm sure you will agree with me that the examples I will share here all show true innovation and creativity, and that coming up with a creative idea like each of these, took years of experience, work and thought. It wasn't like I remember the commercial for the guy who invented peanut butter cups who just tripped and his chocolate bar fell into the jar of peanut butter and bam, he had a new invention. These are 3 examples that I hope will inspire you to put some of your own thought into how you can use the Silva Method, and come up creative and innovative ideas of your own. For Schools: I chose our guests from episode #215[xiii] who have shown innovation in the field of education by launching a podcast to elevate student and teacher voice. Remember, To Show Creativity—It must Reveal something new to us (entertaining, thrilling or useful) and it changes the way we access the world—acting as portals into the world and ourselves. I couldn't have found a clearer example that these two Canadian podcasters who published a book called The Magnificent Microphone[xiv] that when a student connected to it, it opened up a whole new world of confidence, creativity and success. These two leaders in education have discovered true creativity and innovation in the podcasting space, bringing student-led podcasts to the field of education. For Sports: I chose a forward-thinking coach from an early EPISODE #38[xv] who has shown innovation with his sports team when he redesigned their locker room and uniforms with a vision beyond what has typically been done before. Remember, To Show Creativity—It must Reveal something new to us (entertaining, thrilling or useful) and it changes the way we access the world—acting as portals into the world and ourselves. This one you'll see more if you watch the 30 second snapshot of their locker reveal[xvi] that takes the team on a journey from the minute they walk into the new room, where the players are taking in the many visual cues they see, making connections to past players, where they are today, and their future. For the Workplace: I chose our recent EPISODE #264[xvii] where our guest was able to look at ways to create breakthroughs in the workplace, bringing to light something that was left off the table in the past. He looked at EQ and IQ and found that experience was left off, and coined the term “XQ” for Experiential Intelligence. This guest also mentioned his love of “making connections” which is something he noticed I do intentionally on this podcast, and now after hearing Dr. Huberman's explanation, he talks about the fact that true creativity or innovation could not occur without let's say an architect coming up with incredible plans for buildings without a thorough understanding of how buildings are put together in the first place. Remember, To Show Creativity—It must Reveal something new to us (entertaining, thrilling or useful) and it changes the way we access the world—acting as portals into the world and ourselves. Once we know what novelty/creativity and innovation looks in the brain, you can only imagine what's happening at the brain level with each of these examples. Just like the complexity of the reading brain, with 4 parts of the brain working together as a student learns how to read, someone coming up with a creative, innovative idea, has specific (Dr. Huberman lists 3 networks in the brain) working together to create what the rest of the world will come to see as novel, or innovative. This is what makes some things go “viral” online. The NEW experience actually changes the circuits in the brain with whatever it is a person sees, feels, hears or experiences. Dopamine is released (with the surprise and delight) with whatever it is they make connections to, and there's the hope or anticipation that they will experience it again. I hope all 3 of these examples have given you a glance into the world of innovation that's possible for you, as a product of going through the simple steps in the Silva Method. To conclude this episode, and PART 4 of our Review of the Silva Method, we looked at ✔ A Review of all 3 PARTS of The Silva Method Review. ✔ Today, in PART 4, we looked at Ch 8-Your Words Have Power Ch 9-The Power of Imagination Ch 10-Using Your Mind to Improve Your Health ✔ We connected The Silva Method to the Dr. Andrew Huberman's Neuroscience Research on Creativity and Innovation. ✔ We gave an example of innovation from our past guests in the fields of education, sports and the modern workplace. The goal of this 4 PART review of Jose Silva's Program, was to encourage all of us to see if we could learn something new, to take our results to new heights in 2023. I had no idea just how deep the book and program would go, and I know I'll review the online course at a later time, but for now, this review has given me some new ideas for how to improve my visualization/mental screen method to help me with my short term and long term goals. I'd love to hear from you what you have thought of this episode, where we tied in the most current research to Jose Silva's work, reminding me that “once we learn to use our minds to train it, it will do some astounding things for us, as you will soon see.” I do want to add something before we close about the importance of honoring other people's creative and innovative ideas. Now that we've seen what's involved at the brain level with coming up with an idea that's truly novel, I'm sure you'll agree with me that while we all have this ability to create something new, that this comes naturally to some, and is more difficult for others. If you see someone else's creative or innovative idea, please never approach it as your own. PLAGIARISM CAUTION[xviii]: CAN WORDS OR IDEAS REALLY BE STOLEN? When you are the creator of an idea, I can tell you first hand, as someone who worked very hard on something, and then saw it pasted on a reputable company's website the day after I shared my “new ideas” with them. I was very disappointed, mostly as they had taken something I had permission to use from someone else who wasn't referenced, because they stole the quote from me! If you see something from someone else that you like, and want to use it somewhere, always credit the source where it originated from using the proper format with quotation marks. If it's something that's more than a quote, or it's an idea, I would contact the creator first hand, and see what they think about what you would like to do. I wanted to use an assessment based on American Psychologist Howard Gardener's Theory of Multiple Intelligences in my first book, The Secret for Teens Revealed[xix], and emailed him directly at Harvard to ask him. He was shocked I even asked, and said that most people don't. He told me he didn't mind if I used it, but wanted me to be sure I portrayed the Intelligences in a way that showed that we can develop them all with effort, not that we are inclined for some and not others. I never forgot this. If you ask the creator directly, you can find out what they would prefer to keep original, and what they don't mind sharing, with their name attached to it as the originator. With this in mind now, I'd love to hear what you CREATE this year. I've put the meditations that I found online, that are a good place for all of us to begin this process, in the show notes below, and I'll see you next week with our REVIEW of the TOP 10 EPISODES from 2022, and some surprise interviews that I had to squeeze in before the end of the year.

“A genius is a man who has discovered how to increase the intensity of thought to a point when he can freely communicate with sources of knowledge not available through the ordinary rate of thought.” –Napoleon Hill, author of the Best Selling Classic Book, Think and Grow Rich. In PART 3 we cover: ✔ A look at Speed Learning with 2 strategies we can all use right away to learn faster, and remember what we have learned longer. ✔ Creative Sleep, and how to use our sleep to solve problems, improve creativity and intuition in our waking hours, with 4 steps to improving your ability to use and remember your dreams. Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast and PART 3 of our Review of Jose Silva's Mind Control Program. I'm Andrea Samadi an author and an educator, who like many of you listening, have been fascinated with learning and understanding the science behind ANY high-performance strategy proven to increase our results in our schools, sports, or modern workplaces. If there's something NEW that I come across that can help us in any way, I'll investigate it, connect it with the most current research, and then share what I learn with you here. If you've been following the past few episodes, you'll know that I came across Jose Silva's work with Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, from EPISODE #260[i], who has launched 7 successful companies, and mentioned that this book completely changed his world. I had heard of this book and Silva's Program over the years, and many of the concepts that Jose Silva mentions in his book, but had not read it cover to cover, or practiced the audio training that goes along with the book, so I decided to do a complete review of the program, like we did with Napoleon Hill's book at the start of this year, and see how this book, that was popular in the 80s and 90s could connect to the interviews we've done previously on this podcast. Especially when Friederike Fabritius mentioned on EPISODE #258[ii] that our mind can be trained to produce flashes of insight, that can help us in business and our personal lives and what Jose Silva would say could reveal “some astounding things” with a trained mind. I wondered how exactly could our mind be trained... Was daily meditation not enough? If it was, how do I even know if I'm meditating the right way? What was I missing from my current practice? What can we learn from the years of research behind Jose Silva's popular program that could help all of us to refine our current meditation practice? Then I thought back to a class I took with Jon Kabat-Zinn, the father of mindfulness, who reminded us in this class that we are already perfect, (as we are) and that mindfulness is not about “attaining a certain state, (that brings us to this new level of perfection) but that we are already whole and perfect.” Whatever program we are doing now, the idea of this book review is not to say that Jose Silva's method is better, or that we might be missing something from what we are already doing, but to see if there's anything NEW that we cover here, that interests us to dive deeper into, to further enhance our current practice. Jim Kwik, the founder of Kwik Learning[iii], has said that “we've discovered more in the past 20 years about our brain than we've known in the previous 2,000 years combined” and I think it's so exciting to share new strategies to help us all, which is the purpose of this podcast. When I learn something new, something that can help me to improve in any way, this energizes me, this gets me all jazzed up, and I know I can't be the only one like this. I'm sure for those of you who tune into this podcast, can relate to what I'm saying and I'm honored that you've chosen me to study with, wherever you might be tuning into this podcast around the world. I love looking at the statistics to see where listeners are tuning in from in over 168 countries, which is a Geography lesson for me when I look at the map of the world. For this book review, little263-INTRO did I know just how powerful Silva's program would be, when I recorded PART 1 of this series. As I began reading each chapter that Jose Silva wrote many years ago when he was on a quest to increase learning for his own children, I began piecing together many of the strategies that we've covered on this podcast for improving learning, focus, creativity, imagination and productivity, all backed by science, right within the pages of The Silva Method. I made many connections to past episodes and research, including Dr. John Dunlosky from EPISODE #37[iv] where he spoke about using “spaced repetition” as an evidence-based method for improving recall for students, that we will cover today. This research also appears in John Almarode, Nancy Frey and Douglas Fisher's recent book, How Learning Works: Translating the Science of Learning into Strategies in Your Classroom that we covered on EPISODE #161[v]. Or even the importance of mindfulness and meditation in the classroom, for athletes or in the workplace. The connection to current research was enough for me to see that Jose Silva was on to something with the methods he wrote about, years before the research would take off exponentially in this area. Daniel Goleman wrote about this in his book Altered Traits[vi] where he showed a visual with the research on Mindfulness and Meditation going up exponentially from the year 2000, to 2020. My goal with this review of The Silva Method[vii], is to help all of us to learn something new to refine our current meditation practice whether we are working in our schools to improve learning, in our sports environments for improved results towards a specific goal, or in the corporate workplace to generate new ideas. I wouldn't have picked this book to review if it hadn't made such an impact on the world, like Napoleon Hills' book, but I had no idea the concepts I would learn each week, would be so powerful, and life-changing. After releasing the first 2 PARTS of this program, I began to receive messages from our listeners around the world who have used Silva's Program, even from those who used it years ago. Then my good friend Hans Ajay from the UK, urged me to sign up for the full program through MindValley[viii], (where the course sits today after Vishen Lakhiani (the founder) revised and improved it in this current version. Hans wrote “It'll be transformative.” I don't need anyone to twist my arm if there's going to be transformation and learning occurring, so I signed up immediately taking what I'm learning in the pages of Silva's book to a whole new level. I'll stick to covering each chapter, but have to say that the experiential exercises have brought each chapter to life in a way that I don't think it's possible for me to show with my writing. I'll connect as many exercises as I can find online with each chapter review, and encourage those of you who want to learn more to explore the entire program further through MindValley. This course is unlike anything I've ever experienced in all my years of studying and learning. To REVIEW, In PART 1[ix] we covered: ✔ CH 1- Using More of Our Mind in Special Ways: An Introduction to the Silva Mind Control Method ✔ What this program has done for others. ✔ Ch 2- Meet Jose Silva ✔ Ch 3- How to Meditate: A review of the brain states (BETA, ALPHA, THETA, DELTA). ✔ How to quickly access the ALPHA STATE to improve creativity, and intuition. ✔ Using A Mental Screen in Your Mind for Heightened Visualization ✔ How to Help Yourself and Others Using a Mental Screen in Our Mind UNDERSTANDING HOW TO ACCESS THE ALPHA BRAIN STATE: Once we understand the different brain states, and how to access them, it makes more sense as we dive into the Alpha State, and practice visualizing on the screen of our mind in this state with the meditation exercises. Understanding the Alpha Level of Mind is the first step in Silva's Mind Control Program, and used by itself, had tremendous health capabilities. When you are daydreaming, or just going to sleep but not quite there yet, or just awakening but not yet awake, you are in Alpha Brain State that Silva calls the "inner consciousness” where he says is our mental world exists, with no time or space. With Silva's Mind Control training you can enter the Alpha level at will and still remain fully alert, which is where the exciting part of his program begins. I found 2 meditations on YouTube that I've listed below to help us to gain access to the experiential activities and take the first steps to applying Jose Silva's program into our daily life. ALPHA MEDITATION 1 How to Enter the Alpha Level of Mind, This first video is an introduction, helping us to understand how to enter the Alpha state of mind easily. Jose Silva explains what one needs to do to reach the Alpha, or meditative, level of mind, and this video illustrates his words beautifully. ALPHA MEDITATION EXAMPLE 2: Here's a second example I found on YouTube of entering the Alpha State and practicing our Mental Screen, with the 3, 2, 1, countdown method in a (25 minutes meditation) with Sommer Leigh, who reads Silva's Alpha Meditation exactly as he would, but obviously this time, it's with a female voice and peaceful music. Sommer does address the fact that someone new to meditating should begin with counting down from 100 to 1 to reach the Alpha level, using the countdown method that Silva suggests. If you prefer a male voice for this activity, you can sign up for MindValley.com where Vishen Lakhiani goes through this same exercise, that he calls “Tapping into Alpha with a Centering Exercise” or you can hear Vishen's YouTube version of The 20 Minute Silva Centering Exercise here from MindValley's Channel. Once you reach the Alpha level, (either in the morning, or a night or any time of day that you have to spend 15 minutes) Silva explains this is where we envision a peaceful place to help us to relax our mind, and body for improved health. This is also the place where we can practice solving a problem that we will go deeper into in PART 2. This meditation ends with the 1-5 countdown method to exit the meditation, where we feel better than we did before. Jose Silva reminds us that if we did nothing other than practice going to this peaceful state of mind, it would have tremendous health and wellness benefits that research now proves to be true. In PART 2[x] of our review, on our last episode, we covered: ✔ Ch 4- Dynamic Meditation (where we actually DO something while meditating, instead of it being a passive practice). ✔ The 4 Laws that must be in place BEFORE we visualize a goal. ✔ How these 4 Laws mirror Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich book. ✔ 3 STEPS to SOLVE ANY PROBLEM Using the Silva Method on the Screen that We Build in Our Mind. ✔ Ch 5- Improving Memory ✔ Where Silva's Memory Hacks have been seen on previous episodes and in the motivational speaking industry. In PART 3 of our review, today's EPISODE #263, we will cover: ✔ Ch 6-Speed Learning ✔ Ch 7-Creative Sleep For Chapter 6: Speed Learning I couldn't begin writing about Silva's strategies, without referring to Jim Kwik[xi] first, the founder of Kwik Learning, who created his entire business around how to reader faster, work smarter and think better by accelerating your learning and your life by unlocking what he calls our “superbrain.” Jim Kwik reminds us something I'm sure we've all heard of a million times, that school teaches us WHAT to learn (History, Math, Science, Languages) but “there are ZERO classes on how to learn, listen, focus, concentrate, solve problems, read faster or remember things.” We mentioned Howard Berg, The World's Fastest Speed Reader on our last episode, who taught us on EPISODE #189[xii] many skills that school never taught us, like speed reading or memory tricks. Jose Silva was ahead of his game when he began looking for ways to teach his children, and eventually thousands of others who studied his methods, to learn faster, and be able to remember what they learned for longer periods of time. He offers two strategies in his book: STRATEGY 1: THE MENTAL SCREEN FOR LEARNING PAIRED WITH THE 3 FINGER TECHNIQUE Silva suggests using our Mental Screen for learning, to speed up and deepen what we learn. He also uses the 3 Finger Technique to help us to reach the Alpha State quicker, which can be done while reading to help with focus, concentration and retention, and he outlines a teacher from Denver who used this Three Finger Technique to teach her students spelling with a list of 20 words. To test them, she would ask them to write down the words they studied that week, recall the words using the Three Finger Technique, and see the words on the screen of their minds. She was able to teach all of her students to remember their spelling list with this method. STRATEGY 2: RECORD YOUR VOICE The second method for Speed Learning, I'm most interest in, as I had heard about this strategy in the past. Silva suggests recording your voice when you need to learn something new. When I worked in the seminar industry, we called this a “loop tape” and this strategy was for anyone who wanted to take their results to new heights. Whether they were studying for a test, and needed to learn something new, or an actor who needed to memorize their lines quickly, a loop tape was recommended. I even remember it was suggested to me when I first moved to the US, and found life in this new country to be challenging. The first thing our offices said was “has Andrea created a loop tape of what she wants her life to look like?” Sounds a bit off the wall, but if you don't think something first, on the screen of your mind, you'll be less likely to know what you are looking for when you see it. It's crazy to look back now, because my current life looks pretty much the way I imagined it to look 20+ years ago, when I created my first loop tape, and even drew a sketch of what I envisioned the house I would live in, would look like. PUTTING THIS INTO PRACTICE: For someone who want to apply this strategy to learning something new, Silva suggests to read the chapter that you are studying out loud (or whatever it is that you want to remember) and record it while you're in the beta brain state, or wide awake and focused. Next, he says, go to the alpha brain state (by counting backwards using the 3, 2, 1 method, or with the 3 Finger Technique and listen to what you recorded while in this state, concentrating on your voice. For added reinforcement, he suggests to let a few days pass and then do it again. Read the material in your beta state and play it back in alpha. This is also in line with Dr. John Dunlosky's research, using spaced repetition. Chapter 7 of The Silva Method on Creative Sleep. Silva took the dream world very seriously, and he was interested in using dreams to solve problems. His programs teach us to first of all remember your dreams and suggests writing them down as soon as you wake up. We've covered dreams on this podcast with EPISODE #224[xiii] with Harvard Neuroscientist Dr. Baland Jalal on “Sleep Paralysis, Lucid Dreaming and Premonitions” or EPISODE #104[xiv] with Antonio Zadra and his book “When Brains Dream” and I even took a stab at explaining “Why Our Dreams Are So Weird, Highly Emotional and Often Forgotten” on EPISODE #226[xv] as I'm personally been interested in deciphering the messages that come through in our dream state. I mentioned on our recent episode with Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram about how motivational speaker Bob Proctor would encourage all of us to write down our dreams to see what we could learn from them. I've got quite the dream log that goes back to the late 90s, and while no one other than myself would understand the significance within my scribbles, they are very clear to me. Here's an example: I was planning to move from Toronto, Canada, to Arizona, USA in January 2000. I had applied to come to the USA on the H1BI VISA for the work I was doing with teenagers, and I didn't get the paperwork I needed until April 2001. You can see a dream I recorded Dec 14th, 2000 where I wrote “Bob at office putting in new computer telling me how I should set up my Phoenix office” that to someone else might be just a bunch of jumbled words, but to me, that was a clear sign that I was going to eventually finally make it to Arizona, with some suggestions on how to set up my office when I got there. I remember this dream clearly, with Bob actually hiding the wires behind my computer under my desk. With each log I've written, I can now go back over the dream in my head whenever I want, and the messages within each dream are obvious…at least to me. HOW TO USE YOUR DREAMS AS GUIDANCE: I've used this dream log to guide me in my personal and professional life and highly encourage anyone who wants to gain more self-awareness to try this activity. Silva began using dreams to solve his problems back in 1949 and said the more he studied, the more humbling it became as he realized he knew less and less as time moved forward. He was always looking to learn more to help others with his research. He writes an incredible story about how he dreamed of 3 numbers, and couldn't figure out what they were, until a string of events led him to a gas station, where someone he was with saw the numbers on a lottery ticket. He bought the ticket, and went on to win $10,000 that he used to fund his research over the years. This isn't the only story where dreams have had a significant importance. Richard Bach, the author of the book “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” an important book in the field of personal development, was almost never was written. Richard Bach explains that he couldn't figure out the ending to this story, until he saw the ending in a dream he had, helping him to finish the book. This book made the cover of Time Magazine, and Bach credits The Silva Method for the mental discipline and visualization he needed to complete this book. PUT THIS STRATEGY INTO PRACTICE: BEGIN BY WRITING DOWN YOUR DREAMS as soon as you wake up. I used to keep a notebook next to my bed, to do this, but now, with a phone nearby, I wake up and use the notepad on my phone. But what if you don't recall your dreams? Dreams are hard to remember, and Stephanie Gailing, the author of The Complete Book of Dreams says that “on average, within 5 minutes we forget 50% of what we dream and within 10 minutes, only 10% may remain”[xvi] and “there are certain neurotransmitters (brain chemicals) necessary to transform short-term memories into long-term ones; some of these including norepinephrine are at a very low level while dreaming, therefore create an innate blockade to having our nighttime visions etched in our mind.” TAKE THE DREAM WORLD SERIOUSLY: If you can be like Silva, and put value on your dreams, Gailing says “those who revere their dreams and accept them as an integral part of their life remember them more often.” I learned from Vishen Lakhiani, in the Silva Ultramind Online course that some indigenous cultures that he's come across in his studies, wake up and begin their day by discussing their dreams and what messages they can see from their dream state. I know we are far off from starting our corporate meetings this way, but if you can do this on your own, I do promise you will see things that will help you in your everyday life. MAKE SURE YOU ARE SLEEPING LONG ENOUGH: Gailing reported in her Complete Book of Dreams that “since dreams that arrive in the early morning are thought to be more vivid and complex” be sure you are sleeping long enough that you don't miss out on this last REM stage of sleep. How would you know WHEN your REM sleep is? You can use a sleep tracker to see. I put a screen shot of my REM SLEEP from last night that shows at what points in the night I was in REM. My report showed last night's REM sleep to be 21% higher than my 30 day average, but I unfortunately did not remember my dreams from last night. HAVE CONFIDENCE THAT YOU WILL REMEMBER YOUR DREAMS: The strategy of having the intention of remembering your dream works well, and also not worrying if you don't remember them every night. My dream log has weeks of gaps where I didn't remember anything at all, or it just wasn't something I thought was important to remember at the time. To bring this episode to a close, and REVIEW Chapter 6 on Speed Learning and Chapter 7 on Creative Dreams, In Chapter 6 on Speed Learning we looked at 2 Strategies that included Using the mental screen paired with the 3-finger technique if you want to learn something quickly, using the Alpha Brain State. Silva also covered recording your voice, or creating what I knew of as the “loop tape” of whatever it is that you want to remember. You would record what you want to remember in the BETA State, and then listen to it in the Alpha state (using the 3 finger technique or counting backwards). In Chapter 7 on Creative Dreams we covered 4 strategies for remembering our dreams, and taking them seriously like Jose Silva himself did. In the resource section, I've put the links to the three meditations I found online that can help you to take Silva's ideas to new heights in your own life. I hope that you take the time to go through the meditations where you will see what Hans Ajay told me. They are transformational. I wanted to learn something new with my current meditation practice, and had no idea just how deep Jose Silva's Program would take me. Next episode we will cover: Episode #164 ✔ Ch 8-Your Words Have Power ✔ Ch 9-The Power of Imagination ✔ Ch 10-Using Your Mind to Improve Your Health Will see you next episode.

“Once we learn to use our mind to train it, it will do some astounding things for us, as you will soon see.” Jose Silva (August 11, 1914-February 7, 1999) author of The Silva Mind Control Method. Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast I'm Andrea Samadi and like many of you listening, have been fascinated with learning and understanding the science behind high performance strategies to increase our results in our schools, sports, and modern workplaces. As we are in the midst of holiday season here with Thanksgiving this past week in the US, and Christmas fast approaching, we will be narrowing our focus here on the podcast and resuming interviews in the New Year. Until then, this episode will launch a series where I'll be taking us on a deep dive into the benefits of developing a meditation practice. While I'm sure those who tune into this podcast already have a practice in place, I wanted to cover a meditation method that I came across years ago, that our last interview, with Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram reminded me about. The goal of this series is to help all of us to reduce stress with this practice, but also to see if we can learn something new, and refine our practice for those who work in our schools to improve learning, in our sports environments for improved focus and concentration towards a specific goal, and in the corporate workplace for ideas to improve creativity and focus. We will begin this series reviewing Jose Silva and Philip Miele's The Silva Mind Control Method[i] that's based on the Revolutionary Program by the Founder of the World's Most Famous Mind Control Course. Ch 1: Using Our Mind in Special Ways This course is something I came across while working in the seminar industry, and while interviewing Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, on our last EPISODE #260[ii], he reminded me of Jose Silva's program, that helped him with his self-esteem as a teenager, in addition to his studies, and a few other areas of his life, and this reminded me that I had come across Jose Silva's work years ago. I'd actually forgotten about this book, and many of the techniques we learned that were adaptations of Silva's work, and I thought that since meditation is helping so many people around the world, and it's now mainstream in our schools, with athletes, and in the corporate world, it would be fascinating to look closer at Jose Silva's Method, to see if it could help all of us to enhance our current meditation practice, myself included. Then I dove into The Silva Method, and realized his work is going to need to be broken up over a few episodes, like we did with The Think and Grow Rich[iii] book review, just to make it applicable for all of us, and give each chapter careful consideration as we look to see what parts of The Silva Method, could help us to improve our own lives. I wanted to release this episode last Friday, but in order to cover this topic properly, I knew I had to review the Silva Method thoroughly myself, do exactly what he instructs us to do, and not cut any corners. So this weekend, instead of recording, I reviewed and practiced the strategies in the first three chapters of this book, making more connections to past episodes, and increasing my learning and understanding before sharing these ideas with you. If you listened to our episode #258 with Friederike Fabritius, on her new book, The Brain-Friendly Workplace, I asked her what science has to say about those flashes of insight that we ALL have access to for improved creativity and performance, and she explained that “when you are relaxed, your brain waves slow down to the alpha state.” Friederike further explained that we can measure these brain waves with EEG scans and that at moments of insight, or those AHA Moments, the brain has “gamma oscillations” that can be trained and measured that she called “The Gamma Insight Effect.” After speaking with Friederike, I wondered HOW we could ALL train our brain to reach these levels to gain those flashes of insight on demand, or at least more often, to help us with our lives and work? Whenever I've had a flash of insight about something, it's often during times where I'm relaxed (during a massage, in the shower, or during meditation) but they happen when I'm not expecting them, so I've learned to write them down, to see I can learn the meaning behind them, and determines if the insight is useful. Have you had flashes of insight? When do they happen for you? How do you make use of what you are seeing? Next, I remembered our interview #148[iv] with Dr. James Hardt and his Biocybernaut Alpha One Training that helped people (like Tony Robbins) to access the zone, or peak performance, on demand, and increase those heightened levels of awareness for reduced stress and increased productivity. I wondered if there was a way we could do this ourselves, without having to pay the money to attend a training somewhere. Dr. Hasan spoke about attending Dave Asprey's 5 Day 40 Years of Zen Training[v], that was life-changing, but he also mentioned The Silva Method on EPISODE #260, that's designed specifically to help us to tap into the Alpha (deeply relaxed brain state) with other parts of the program that could train us to reach the Theta State (relaxed consciousness, deep meditation, light sleep, REM state) and the Delta State where we are in a deep sleep. Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, who has successfully built 7 companies, believes that the Silva Method launched his mind to a whole new way of thinking and spoke about how Einstein and Edison would gain flashes of insight from relaxing their minds in a certain way, something that we ALL have access to do. Dr. Hasan is a huge believer in The Silva Method, that shows us how to access these creative brain states, and then give us some ideas of what to do with them once we are there. Jose Silva himself believed that once we learn how to use the tools in his program, that we all have the ability to become geniuses. Napoleon Hill even wrote about this in his best-selling book, Think and Grow Rich, when he said that a better definition of genius “is a man who had discovered how to increase the intensity of thought to a point where he can communicate with sources of knowledge not available through the ordinary rate of thought.” Read that quote a few times and keep thinking. How could YOU benefit from diving a bit deeper into your meditation practice? We have covered meditation on this podcast, beginning with Dr. Dan Siegel all the way back to EPISODE #28[vi] where we spoke with Dr. Siegel about something he calls Mindsight, or seeing the mind in another person, and he says this is the “basis for social and emotional intelligence.” Then on EPISODE #60[vii], we dove deeper into his Wheel of Awareness Meditation, and the science behind a meditation practice, which is evident to anyone who goes to www.pubmed.gov and types in the word “meditation” as they will see over 9,000 results showing that mindfulness and meditation clearly improves our health and wellness. Dr. Dan Siegel has mentioned the research often with his Wheel of Awareness Meditation, that “integrates the structure and function of the brain.” By integration, he meant moving towards well-being. But with ALL of these episodes, we've focused on WHAT meditation does (improves mental and physical health and well-being) but I've never covered exactly HOW to access these altered states of consciousness, or what to do when we get there, mostly because until I read Jose Silva's book, I had no idea what I was doing when I was meditating. I'd been doing many of the exercises in Silva's Program, that I had learned from different seminars and sources over the years, without fully understanding exactly what I was doing, and noticed I could use some improvement with my own practice. When Friederike Fabritius said that accessing these different brain states could be trained, and then suddenly Dr. Hasan mentioned HOW he trained his brain all those years ago, I thought it was time to take a closer look at our brain states. My goal with this episode is to help me to be more intentional with my meditation practice, and then share what I learn with you here. Just keep an open mind. As I share my insights with you from each chapter, see how the ideas could help you to improve YOUR practice, and perhaps give you some new insights along the way. On PART 1 of this book review we will cover: ✔ CH 1- Using More of Our Mind in Special Ways: An Introduction to the Silva Mind Control Method ✔ What this program has done for others. ✔ Ch 2- Meet Jose ✔ Ch 3- How to Meditate: A review of the brain states (BETA,ALPHA,THETA,DELTA). ✔ How to quickly access the ALPHA STATE to improve creativity, and intuition. ✔ Using A Mental Screen in Your Mind for Heightened Visualization ✔ How to Help Yourself and Others With this Practice What This Program Has Done for Others: For this episode, #261, we will begin our DEEP DIVE into Jose Silva's Mind Control Method, used by over 10 million students around the world, to see if we can all use his work, that's based on accessing altered states of consciousness, to train our brain in ways where school just never taught us. The only reason I had heard about Jose Silva's Method, was that when I sold seminars for Bob Proctor, back in the late 1990s, many of the seminar attendees asked me if I had heard of Silva's Training. Over the years, I learned that parts of Silva's Methods were used in many of the seminars I had attended in the personal development industry, but I had never looked at the entire program as Jose Silva had written it. Much like I had only read parts of Napoleon Hill's Think and Grow Rich book, until I decided to review it myself on this podcast earlier this year. We will be going through the chapters together, and see what resonates with our current practice enough to dive deeper into. Now, there are two ways you could learn about these concepts. You can either learn with me here on the podcast, or, if you want to go deeper, you could pay to do one of the trainings like Dr. Hasan Akram did (with Dave Asprey), or what Tony Robbins did, with Dr. James Hardt and his Biocybernaut Alpha One Training, or even dive deeper into The Silva Method as this Method is now called The UltraMind System[viii] that you can purchase through Mind Valley which is where the program exists today. It's here that the CEO of Mind Valley, a New York Times Best-Selling author himself, Vishen Lakhiani[ix] was asked to be the face of Jose Silva's work, just a few years after he passed away. PART 1 of My Review of the Silva Method: Remember when Dr. Hasan held up his copy of Jose Silva's book, from our last episode? The book is actually written as a book within a book, as the outside chapters 1 and 2, and 17-20 were written by Philipe Miele, who orients us to Jose Silva, and the millions of graduates who have benefitted from the program, while the inside of the book consists of the techniques we will learn, written by Jose Silva. We will learn more about the type of man Jose Silva was, but I have to clarify the title of the program, that is based solely on learning to control our mind for “the betterment of mankind.” (Page 6, The Silva Mind Control Method). The program cannot be used in any other way and is not meant to be used to “control” anyone, other than our own minds. As we saw with the quote we opened up with, once we can learn how to use our mind, it will do some astounding things. Throughout this series, we will see how it can be used to improve our own intuitive and creativity skills, solve large and small problems that we might have in business and in life, and will even uncover ways we can use the tools to improve our own health, or the health of others. Just keep an open mind as we go through the chapters, and I'll show you how I've either used the tools myself, or have seen them being used by others for results that cannot be denied. What This Program Has done for Others Now, don't just take my word for the deep work we will uncover in the next few episodes, here's what some of the leading experts have said about Jose Silva's Method as well as what Jose Silva himself has said that his program has done for others. ✔ A marketing company used it to create 18 new products. ✔ 14 Chicago White Socks players used it to boost their scores. ✔ Celebrities have used it and credit Jose Silva for improving their focus and creativity. ✔ Colleges and universities have used it to help students study less, but learn more. To access the research[x] that has been done on this program to date, I'll link it in the show notes. The late Dr. Wayne Dyer has said that “anything with the name Jose Silva as the author has my vote before I open to page one. Read it with a pen for underlining.” The Founder of Precious Moments, Jon Butler said that “Any CEO who is not using altered states of mind is at a competitive disadvantage.” (from Vishen Lakiani's Masterclass).[xi] As you go through this book review with me, think of where The Silva Program could help you. There will be some areas that will resonate with you, that you can practice and refine, and others that you can set aside for a later time. At the end of each of these review episodes, I'll have a section for you to put the ideas into action with clear examples of how I have used these exercises. REMEMBER: “When a person learns to function mentally at this deeper level, creativity is enhanced. Memory is improved and a person is better able to solve problems.” (Jose Silva). Ch 2- Meet Jose Silva What's crazy for me to see, looking back at Silva's work, is that he began The Silva Method, with his children while he was working on a way to improve learning. Like any parent, he wanted the best for his own children and their academics. But Jose Silva went above and beyond what most of would do for this to occur. He took his knowledge of working with radios and electronic circuitry, (what he did for his work that he excelled at) and combined this knowledge with the fact that we know that the mind generates energy, and developed a program that he hoped would help the brain to work more efficiently. He tested his ideas on his children. Imagine Jose Silva, as a young man, with young children, who would work his job in radio repair until 9pm every night, come home, eat dinner, help put his children to bed, and then when his house was quiet, he would go on to study until midnight. He would learn the ideas that would eventually help his own children improve their grades, extending the course to other children, who achieved even better results with his program, as he refined and improved it along the way, and then within 3 years, developed the course that we know today. This is where The Silva Method began, that has now been validated by over 500,000 experiments, providing the results that no one could ignore. Ch 3- How to Meditate: A review of the brain states (BETA,ALPHA,THETA,DELTA). A Review of the Brain States: Beta Brain States: are where most of us spend our waking time, in normal and alert consciousness with brain waves at 15-30 cycles/second. It's here that we can feel the stress and anxiousness of daily life, so finding ways to offset this stress can be helpful. ***Alpha Brain State: where our brain slows down and we begin to feel healing, a sense of relaxation, or bliss, at around 9-14 cycles/second with our brain waves. This brain state is where most of Jose Silva's Programs are centered around. Theta Brain State: involves deeper relaxation with access to problem solving while these waves slow down to 4-8 cycles/second. If we can train our brain to stay awake here, we will be able to access heightened levels of creativity and intuition for solving problems. In chapter 7 of the book, Jose Silva covers Creative Sleep. He says “Understand a Man's Dreams, and You Understand the Man” Delta State: our brain waves slow to 1-3 cycles/second while we are in deep dreamless sleep. How Do We Use the Silva Method to Access the Alpha State Where All the Magic Begins? STEP 1: HOW TO ACCESS THE ALPHA STATE: YOU CAN ACCES THE ALPHA STATE WHEN YOU FIRST WAKE UP, BEFORE BED, and ANY OTHER TIME YOU HAVE 15 MINUTES TO RELAX YOUR MIND. The Alpha State is the easiest state to access as we will already be in this state the first 5 minutes after we wake up. Jose Silva suggests: Jose Silva suggests the 40 Day Technique to guarantee you are at the Alpha Level where you begin by counting backwards from 100 to 1 for 10 mornings, then you can count from 50-1 for the next 10 mornings, then from 20-1 for 10 mornings, and then 10-1 until you get to 5 to 1. I'm currently in the first 10 days of counting backwards from 100-1 to allow myself to drift deeper into Alpha in the morning as well as before I go to sleep at night. I noticed that I'm more focused on my morning meditation, whereas before, I was just sitting there, not as focused as I know I could have been. I practice Dan Siegel's Wheel of Awareness Meditation each morning, and going into the Alpha State FIRST, has deepened my brain state into the Alpha level, where I no longer drift off when I hear a noise or something. PUT THIS INTO PRACTICE: Begin using the 100-1 countdown to at night, in the morning, or whenever you plan to access the alpha level to begin to improve your current practice. I'm in my first few days of practicing this method before sleep, and the first couple of nights, fell asleep before I could get to 1. I'll keep trying, as I'd like to get to the point where I can just count from 5-1 to access the Alpha State, like Jose Silva suggests. If you are as serious about accessing this level as I am, I suggest keeping a note card next to your work place to check off where you are in this process. After 10 days, you can progress to the next step, until you are able to access the alpha state from counting from 5-1. STEP 2: ONCE YOU REACH THE ALPHA STATE, THEN WHAT? Next, You will learn to use a Mental Screen for Heightened Visualization Once you have accessed the Alpha State, Silva reminds us: Central to Jose's Silva Method of Mind Control is with the power of visualization, and he says “right from the beginning, from the very moment you reach your meditative level (what he calls accessing the Alpha State), you must learn to practice visualization. The better you learn to visualize, the more powerful will be your experience with Mind Control.” He also believes that his process goes far beyond what many of us have come across with other meditation programs, and as I go through each chapter, I'll leave it to you to pick and choose which parts of his program resonate with you to use and practice, but this part is important to master for EVERYTHING else we will be learning. PUT THIS INTO PRACTICE: When you close your eyes, what do you see? Raise your eyes up a bit (about 20% upwards above the horizon of what you see). Is it black, or can you use your mind to create things? Begin with simple things like an orange or an apple. This takes time and practice. This mental screen will help you in many ways as we move through different lessons, and is important, but don't be tied to what you think you should see. We are all at different stages of learning. I started seeing things on the screen of my mind starting in my late 20s, and things would flash sometimes when I was relaxed. I never did have control over what I was seeing. It just happened, and I would either know what I was seeing, or be wondering “what on the earth is that” so I'm hoping that with time, effort and practice, I will gain better control over what I'm able to visualize, so I can put it to better use. STEP 3: Now Utilize This Power With time and practice, it will be this screen that you will learn how to help yourself and others. You begin with creating simple things, until you are ready to solve small problems in your daily life, from work, to health, and improve learning/creativity. PUT THIS INTO PRACTICE: Just begin here with playing around with what you can create on the screen of your mind in the Alpha State. If you do nothing else, other than these 3 steps, you will experience what William Wordsworth called “a happy stillness of mind.” (Page 27, The Silva Method). Think of this as a journey within your mind. Each day you will be getting better and better, mentally stronger and stronger, and remember the quote we opened this episode with? “Once we learn to use our mind to train it, it will do some astounding things for us, you will soon see.” (Jose Silva) TO REVIEW PART 1 of THE SILVA METHOD: We covered: ✔ CH 1- Using More of Our Mind in Special Ways: An Introduction to the Silva Mind Control Method ✔ What this program has done for others. ✔ Ch 2- Meet Jose Silva and learned about his passion for helping others to improve their ability to learn. ✔ Ch 3- How to Meditate: A review of the brain states (BETA,ALPHA,THETA,DELTA). ✔ How to quickly access the ALPHA STATE to improve creativity, and intuition using the countdown Method. ✔ Using A Mental Screen in Your Mind for Heightened Visualization ✔ It Will Be This Screen That We Will Use to Help Yourself and Others in Future Chapters. SOME FINAL THOUGHTS: As we close out this episode, I wanted to share that while there are many programs out there, and I'm not here to say that one is better than the next. If you have studied the father of mindfulness, Jon Kabat-Zinn, you'll recall that he reminds us that we are already perfect, and that mindfulness is not about “attaining a certain state, (that brings us to this new level of perfection) but that we are already whole and perfect.” Whatever program you are doing now, see if there's anything we cover that interests you to dive deeper into to further enhance what you are already doing.

“If you're going to live, leave a legacy. Make a mark on the world that can't be erased.” Maya Angelou Watch this interview on YouTube here https://youtu.be/oxdz07FUMOc On this episode we will cover: ✔ How Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram found The Neuroscience Meets SEL Podcast, and what resonated with him, with our content. ✔ Why after building 7 companies, Dr. Hasan is looking at leaving a legacy that lasts far beyond this lifetime. ✔ Where Dr. Hasan has been focused in the business world (Brainvincible and Matrickz) and why he wants to help others to achieve financial freedom. ✔ For the man known to be "The Most Disciplined Man in Germany" what discipline means to him. ✔ What he thinks discipline can do for someone over long periods of time. ✔ What he cautions us about with being tied to the outcomes of our daily results. ✔ How this book he came across when he was 16 (that I also read) completely changed who he was, increased his self-esteem and skyrocketed his success in business and life. ✔ How he thinks people like Edison, Einstein and Michael Jackson used the principles in this book, to reach breakthrough levels in their life and work. ✔ About the strangest longevity strategy he's ever heard! Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast where we bridge the gap between theory and practice, with strategies, tools and ideas we can all use immediately. I'm Andrea Samadi and launched this podcast to share how important an understanding of our brain is for our everyday life and results. It's probably taken me 3 and a half years of hosting this podcast, (looking back now) to see how much these weekly interviews have expanded my own self-awareness by picking the brains of some of the most brilliant minds on the planet in high performance, connecting their strategies to the most current brain research, and then sharing what I'm learning with you here on the podcast. If our results really are tied back to our level of awareness, then it makes sense to me that we keep sharing the success secrets, used by those who have risen to the top, with the goal that we can ALL do the same, and take our results to those higher levels of achievement. For today's EPISODE #260, we will be speaking with a serial entrepreneur from Munich, Germany, Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram[i], someone who has been obsessed with high performance and biohacking for years. Since 2005, he's created disruptive companies in multiple industries (automotive with his company Matrickz[ii], brain and performance, with his company Brainvincible[iii], and real estate to name a few) that are changing the way we live, think, and work. Dr. Hasan reached out to me as he had been enjoying our podcast, and wanted to share his perspective and journey, that he thought could bring value to our audience and I agreed. I watched a few of his other interviews, and one that he did a year ago, with Craig Ballantyne[iv] (who's a well-known business coach and entrepreneur from my hometown, Toronto, Canada) called “The Millionaire Monk's Abundance Formula[v]” stuck out to me, so I listened to it. It was here that I learned Dr. Hasan and I have a lot of our influencers in common that he mentioned opened his mind to the possibilities that exist when you fully optimize the power of your brain and mind. The program he created, Brainvincible helps those in schools, sports or the workplace to improve their communication and creativity skills, helps athletes to optimize their skills and abilities to achieve precision and regeneration, as well as helping students to improve their study habits to achieve higher grades. I had to look at who Dr. Hasan studied, and what motivated him to create a course like this, and low and behold, Dr. Hasan, from Munich, Germany, took the same course that I took many years ago, where we both learned how to use the power of visualization to create what we wanted in our life, and use our imagination to solve problems. Dr. Hasan learned about The Silva Method[vi] when he was 16 and I came across this method while working in the seminar industry, and used it in many different ways over the years. Dr. Hasan used this method to skyrocket his grades and self-confidence, and years later he began searching for ways to further enhance his brain's capacities. I can't wait to ask Dr. Hasan about his unique perspective after he's dedicated years of study to bio-hacking to improve performance, with some of the most unique brain-training strategies I've ever come across. Let's meet Dr. Hasan Akram, who's been called “Germany's Most Disciplined Man” and learn from his experience, to see how we can further improve our own brain's capacity, and skyrocket our results to new heights. Welcome Dr. Hasan, it's incredible to meet you. INTRO Q: Dr. Hasan, I feel like we are kindred souls, even though this is just our second time meeting. When I listened to your interview with Craig Ballantyne, who you mentioned is from my hometown, I felt instantly connected, with everything you were saying, from where you began to see the power of your mind and brain with The Silva Program, to Dave Asprey's Biohacking, to even your practice of using the early morning time to find answers to questions—I thought, this guy seems like me (except I don't run 4 companies). I've got to ask you, when you found our podcast, what resonated with you, and our content, enough that you took the time to send me a note? I'm very glad you did. It's been nothing short of transformational hearing what you have created, from very humble beginnings, using many of the strategies we've been talking about on this podcast. It's clear from your background that there's a lot we can all learn from your experiences. Instead of starting with where this all began for you, I wonder if we could connect the dots, looking backwards and explore some of your best success secrets that could help our audience, myself included? Q1: So here you are, you've built 4 successful companies, (CORRECTION: Dr. Hasan has built 7 companies) and then I heard you say that you want to help people beyond your lifetime. This is an incredible legacy to leave, but I wonder, looking back now, at what point were you clear with your purpose, and the legacy that you want to leave? And what is your legacy? There's more to what we are doing here than the money we make, or the things we can buy with it. Can you give an overview of your businesses so we can all get an idea of what you have built with Brainvincible[vii] and Matrickz?[viii] And have I missed something that you've created that's important to highlight? Q2: My next question is about discipline. I love watching people who have this trait. I heard it mentioned the other day and I wrote it down, knowing it was important to take a closer look at its meaning. Then I saw it again, as I was interviewing Friederike Fabritius (from Germany) on EPISODE #258[ix], she hit the Wall Street Journal's Best Selling List for business books, and a couple of books under hers was Ryan Holiday's book, Discipline is Destiny: The Power of Self-Control[x]. Then I saw that you were referred to as Germany's “most disciplined man.” What has this word meant for you over the years, and what do you think is possible for someone who can execute discipline over a long period of time? Q2B: I know that doing the same thing day in and out can get boring, and difficult. It's the way many people's days go if they are in sales, or looking for their next breakthrough. What do you think leads to those jumps in results that we see that took years of work, and finally snowball into a huge success story, but many people might think “oh that person was just lucky” if they hadn't seen the years of blood, sweat and tears behind the scenes? How have you seen leaps in results occur within your companies, and is there something you would caution us against from being tied to the outcome of our results every day? Q3: Can we go back to your childhood now, and what your mindset was like back then? I saw that we both studied The Silva Method. Jose Silva's methods were an integral part of many of the courses I studied over the years. How did this program help you back then, (maybe beginning with confidence-building) and how have you incorporated these ideas into the programs you've created? Q3B: I just asked Friederike Fabritius about where people get these “flashes of insight” and how science ties to this concept, and she explained when we are relaxed, we can into the Alpha Brain State, just like the Silva Method taught us. I've been looking for a simple way to explain how these insights occur in the brain, and I've heard you share how important that early morning time of 3am-4am is. How have some famous people we know, (like Thomas Edison, or Einstein), used this time to solve their greatest scientific problems, and how could ANYONE use this time period to gain answers to questions or problems they want to solve? Q4: Like you, I'm a huge Dave Asprey[xi] fan, the Father of Biohacking, and follow his podcast and his work over the years. What was it about his work that you say changed your life? Q4B: Dr. Hasan, all of this stuff we've been talking about can seem way out there. You know, solving big problems in the alpha brain state at 3am, or biohacking our health and increasing our longevity. I'll never forget where I was on the freeway when I heard Dr. David Sinclair say he could “make a mouse out of stem cells” on Dave Asprey's podcast. I had to stop and think “wait, what did he just say?” Q4C: A lot of the tools and strategies I'm sharing on this podcast are not strategies that were accepted in the workplace 20 years ago, but advancements in science can show us how they can be beneficial today. What would be the strangest, but most productive strategy you've come across over the years? Q5: What would be your final thoughts or your message for those listening who are building something? What mindset should we all embrace when starting something from nothing to hit the high levels of achievement you've hit? Q6: Is there anything important I've missed? Dr. Hasan, it's been incredible meeting you, and learning about your work. I'm so grateful to have found you, and you've just made the world a smaller place as we connected over our podcast, from the other side of the world. Your message is inspiring, uplifting and helpful, for all of us who might be looking for some new and refreshing ideas to help us finish the last quarter of our year on strong footing, and launch us into a successful 2023. Thank you for your time and knowledge today! FINAL THOUGHTS Some final thoughts at the end of this episode, I had no idea that Dr. Hasan would expand my level of awareness with some areas my mind has never gone before. If you want to learn more from Dr. Hasan's company's, I have put links in the show notes to follow his work, his Brainvincible programs and nootropic that I am trying, and where you can find his book, The Million Dollar Monk. Prior to speaking with Dr. Hasan, I didn't realize he had started 7 companies, (I thought it was 4!) but what was interesting is that this was not uncommon with people I met in the seminar industry. Most people who I met back in those early days did what they loved in the day, whether they were truck drivers, teachers, or working some sort of corporate job, they all did something they enjoyed, but had other business ideas that they ran outside of what they spent their days doing. Dr. Hasan challenged me to think there isn't a limit to how many “sources of income” we can create but that in this quest for helping others with whatever it is that we do, to not be tied to our outcomes (that will come with time) and while we are putting in the daily effort, enjoying whatever it is that we do with our day, that we can also put an emphasis on our relationships and health, because science is revealing that many of the most common chronic diseases are “lifestyle diseases” and are reversible. Something I'm going to keep studying and learning more about, so we can all move our needle towards health and wellness, and healthy relationships, to enjoy not just this year, but for many years to come. And with that, I'll see you a bit later this week, for Brain Fact Friday, where I will share what exactly The Silva Method is, and how you can use it in your daily life. See you then. FOLLOW DR.

Today, Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram will walk us through his journey and share his thoughts on how to find your passion, purpose, and motivation. The post 212 – The Millionaire Monk’s Abundance Formula: How to Find Your Passion, Purpose, and Motivation appeared first on Early To Rise.
We have heard requirements like we need ten trillion miles of data, billions of situations that we have to cover before deploying autonomous vehicles in the street. We are gonna need an enormous amount of testing. Besides that, we want to test the corner cases, edge cases and that's not ethical to try out with the human driver, and we are also risking the entire environment. In terms of edge cases, it is not even possible to replicate that without putting people's lives in danger. So the only way we can handle those is by simulating. In this episode, Our CEO Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, and Roy Fridman, VP Business Development & Sales of Foretellix Ltd will talk more about Testing Scenarios of Autonomous Vehicles.
The main challenge in the autonomous vehicle industry is that we try to replace the human driver with the machine or software. Many technologies have been created to help us make this happen, one of them is the system sensor. Sensors such as LiDar, Radar, cameras have a very important role, which is to function as the eye of an autonomous vehicle. Much like human drivers, autonomous vehicles rely on optical sensors to understand their environment and identify hazards. One such challenge is when a sensor’s view of the world becomes obscured by water or dirt. This seems to be a very challenging task for LiDARs which need to differentiate between a real object beyond the LiDAR, and elements that are right on the LiDAR window. In this episode, Our CEO Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, and Tom Jellicoe, Consultant - Sensors & Devices at TTP plc will talk more about the sensor system, LiDAR, sensor cleaning technology, the safety aspect of it, etc. https://www.matrickz.de JOIN AUTOMOTIVE CYBERSECURITY TRAINING: https://lnkd.in/debNaRe Visit our CEO pages: https://lnkd.in/enezJpa https://lnkd.in/dYW9nu9 https://lnkd.in/dcug-Fa Take a peek at our activities: https://lnkd.in/dME_Y3C https://lnkd.in/dPrATbH https://lnkd.in/dTWug5T https://lnkd.in/dbD__bU Hear our Podcast: https://lnkd.in/dEZAdQD https://lnkd.in/ds5uGJd https://lnkd.in/d-95gFX #AutonomousVehicleSystemSensors #CarSensor #LiDAR #Radar #radarsensor #sensors #sensortechnology #systemsensors #systemsensor #AutonomousDrivingSensor #AutonomousVehicleSensors #autonomousvehicles #autonomousvehicle #automotiveindustry

Did you know that 40% of the fatalities on the road are happening in the junction? Imagine if we have technology that can help us to reduce that number. In this episode, you will learn about autonomous traffic management, the human acceptance of that technology, how much of a change the traffic user and the drivers have to go through in order to accept the technology.

In the traditional IT industry, about 80% of the vulnerabilities and the attacks that we have seen are socially engineered. Anybody can inject the malware into your vehicle and take control of your vehicle theoretically. There are several possibilities whenever you want to access the vehicle. One is physical access to the vehicle through the OBD2 port and number two is remote access. The holy grail of car hacking is to get to the CAN bus of the vehicle which is the actual network of the car where you control everything. In this video, Our CEO Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, and the Matrickz team are going to show a setting that we will have remote access to the vehicle, and then we will inject the malware that is allowing you to communicate with the vehicle and in our case, we have simulated the malware using the Raspberry Pi, connected to the OBD2 port so that you can access the CAN bus. https://www.matrickz.de JOIN AUTOMOTIVE CYBERSECURITY TRAINING: https://lnkd.in/debNaRe Visit our CEO pages: https://lnkd.in/enezJpa https://lnkd.in/dYW9nu9 https://lnkd.in/dcug-Fa Take a peek at our activities: https://lnkd.in/dME_Y3C https://lnkd.in/dPrATbH https://lnkd.in/dTWug5T https://lnkd.in/dbD__bU Hear our Podcast: https://lnkd.in/dEZAdQD https://lnkd.in/ds5uGJd https://lnkd.in/d-95gFX #CarHacking #CarHack #CarSecurity #ECUHacking #CANbus #CarHacker #AutomotiveSecurity #AutomotiveSafety #AutomotiveCyberSecurity #ISO21434 #AutomotiveIndustry #ISO26262 #AutonomousVehicle #Hacker #CyberSecurity #hacking #hack #CANHack #FunctionalSafety #CarCyberSecurity #Hacked #RaspberryPi #OBD #OBD2Port
The technology around us is influencing how people behave and react socially with each other, like the mobile phone, computer, internet, camera, autonomous vehicle, and etc. As technology continues to evolve, we will be able to use that to predict human behavior through camera or other sensors and implement those in autonomous vehicles in order to make the vehicle safe and secure. The "human behavior prediction" technology will not only protect the driver or the passengers inside the vehicle, but also the pedestrians and other road users. Of course, it's a big challenge for the automotive industry and for the OEMs to implement that in the vehicle because whenever a human is driving, the human is perfectly capable of making a good prediction about what's gonna happen with the pedestrian while we still don't know the capabilities of this technology when applied in autonomous vehicles. Listen to the stimulating discussions between our CEO, Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, and Leslie Nooteboom, Co-founder & Chief Product Officer of Humanising Autonomy about human behavior prediction for the autonomous vehicle. https://www.matrickz.de JOIN AUTOMOTIVE CYBERSECURITY TRAINING: https://lnkd.in/debNaRe Visit our CEO pages: https://lnkd.in/enezJpa https://lnkd.in/dYW9nu9 https://lnkd.in/dcug-Fa Take a peek at our activities: https://lnkd.in/dME_Y3C https://lnkd.in/dPrATbH https://lnkd.in/dTWug5T https://lnkd.in/dbD__bU Hear our Podcast: https://lnkd.in/dEZAdQD https://lnkd.in/ds5uGJd https://lnkd.in/d-95gFX #HumanBehavior #HumanBehaviorPrediction #AutonomousVehicles #AutonomousVehicle #humanbehavior #humanbehaviorprediction #autonomousvehicles #selfdrivingcars #ISO21434 #autonomousvehicle #autonomousdriving #automateddriving #automatedmachinelearning
There are 3 technologies that gonna change the industry once and for all, Autonomous Vehicle, Connected Vehicle, and Electrification of Vehicle. And when we talk about autonomous vehicles, the pace of the automotive industry is somewhat slow compared to others in the last 20 years. But in the last decade, we have seen a little bit of the catalytic effect in this industry and Autonomous Vehicle is definitely moving the automotive industry faster. There will be a good chance that the idea of owning a vehicle will be obsolete. In the future, people will use their vehicles like an app to move from point A to point B, be it the autonomous vehicle or a drone. Not only that, the safety mechanism and the lifespan of these vehicles will not be 20 years anymore. Because of these changes, there will be new safety challenges in the autonomous vehicles sphere. Listen to the stimulating discussions between our CEO, Dr. Hasan Ibne Akram, and John Maddox, the senior director - autonomous safety and compliance at Lyft. https://www.matrickz.de FREE DOWNLOAD - THE WHITE PAPER https://lnkd.in/dn5i35v JOIN AUTOMOTIVE CYBERSECURITY TRAINING: https://lnkd.in/debNaRe Visit our CEO pages: https://lnkd.in/enezJpa https://lnkd.in/dYW9nu9 https://lnkd.in/dcug-Fa Take a peek at our activities: https://lnkd.in/dME_Y3C https://lnkd.in/dPrATbH https://lnkd.in/dTWug5T https://lnkd.in/dbD__bU Hear our Podcast: https://lnkd.in/dEZAdQD https://lnkd.in/ds5uGJd https://lnkd.in/d-95gFX #autonomous #vehicle #safety #automotive #ISO21434 #autonomousvehicles #automotiveindustry #automotivesecurity #cybersecurity #OEMs #autonomoussafety #autonomousvehiclesafety #autonomousvehicle #SOTIF #AUTOSAR
Self-driving cars are still experiencing trouble identifying pedestrians and other road hazards in harsh weather and bad lighting conditions. By using thermal cameras, we can solve those problems and the vehicles will be able to see in the daytime just as well as in the dark.
