I'm not so sure! I know it has something to do with self-hypnosis, or
better, with visualization techniques, but I think it's more than that. I
also think , though I'm not sure either, that MT does not lead to the
control of functions normally taken as solely involuntary as Silva Mind
Control at least aims at. It think it focuses mostly on relaxation, while
SMC tries to do what people in the biofeedback area do, but without any
equipment. They seem to overlap in certain areas, anyway.
