Transcendental Meditation offers many scientifically proven benefits.
"TM is easy to fit into my life"
Transcendental Meditation is practised for just twenty minutes twice daily, sitting comfortably with eyes closed. Simple, natural, and easy to learn, it doesn’t require clearing your mind of thoughts or concentrating. It’s so effortless, within just a few minutes anyone can go beyond worries and agitation.
The healing rest gained in each sitting of Transcendental Meditation allows emotional, mental and physical stress to wash away—improving overall health and well-being while increasing energy levels and creativity.
"I have increased feelings of inner joy"
Although much enjoyment is found in our experience of the world, the source of happiness lies within each of us. Deep within, beyond thought, is the most settled state of awareness, a reservoir of creativity, intelligence, and happiness.
With regular practice of Transcendental Meditation, people report more happiness in the moment. With mind and emotions refreshed, we are naturally more present and engaged—and more available to share with others.
"I now have more focus in life"
Transcendental Meditation helps to increase intelligence, creativity, memory, learning ability and emotional stability as well as keeping us more alert, vibrant and astute at any age.
Neuroscientists have found that during TM, the brain produces high-power alpha waves. This distinct brain pattern corresponds to the state of relaxed inner wakefulness. This is the basis of broader comprehension and sharper focus.
"My anxiety and worry are now easier to manage"
During and after the practice of the Transcendental Meditation, people report feeling less stressed, happier, and more comfortable with themselves.
In every sitting of TM, the mind and body gain deep, restorative rest—much deeper than ordinary relaxation, as evidenced by reduced cortisol and plasma lactate (major indicators of stress).
This feeling typically lasts after TM and builds up to last more and more in life.
