Silva, who calls himself a performance philospher, is returning with 10 new episodes of his show that have begun airing on National Geographic from September 15.
"All the episodes this time are going to 'blow' your mind, this time we make sure that we altogether reach a different level and bring in a new twist to games," says Silva.
Silva gets inside one's head and shows you what is going on with an intricate series of interactive experiments designed to "mess with mind".
New episodes have titles such as 'Superstitions', 'Addiction', 'Food for thought', 'Risky business', 'Patterns', 'Compassion' etc.
"The best of all would be the 'challenge between sexes', when it comes to conventional thinking about men and women's brains, cliches tend to take over. Women are seen to be more emotional, while men think more practically, getting to know the truth behind this thinking would surely be a great idea," says Baptiste, an avid watcher of Silva's shows.
"So as to make oneself work more faster and keep our brain and body in a proper working condition, one should always step out from their comfort zone, change their environment and should never let themselves get saturated," says Silva.
According to research, the trick to eliminating earworms from the brain is to solve challenging anagram puzzles, which re-focuses short-term memory on more controlled thoughts.
"Gaming is one of the common things among kids, but one has to decide what kind of gaming should be done, as that has a serious effect to our brain," says Silva.
"The best part is number games, where your mind tickles and plays with the numbers and automatically increases your capacity to deal with numbers in a very quick way," he adds.
