Richard Siena
Certified Silva instructor
Like his students, Rich was looking for a system for a better life. He taught himself to meditate at an early age, before most people recognized what meditation was or what it offered. He took Transcendental Meditation in 1976 and came upon the Silva Method in 1980.
The class stayed with him. He continued through advanced Silva classes and became a Silva instructor in 1982. He taught for several years, then used the techniques in his professional life as a software developer and systems architect. He kept applying them, studied other meditation practices and philosophies, raised a family, and built several businesses.
He has returned to teaching the Silva Method. He brings the method itself and the record of using it in ordinary days. With more than fifty years of meditation behind him, he has a particular way of explaining the work, and that is what his students hear.
