What can TM do for me?

It can make your life much more enjoyable and balanced. Many people say this easy-to-practice technique has a transforming effect — they report major benefits in reducing stress and anxiety, mood disorders, insomnia, and hypertension.
Chronic stress is harmful to health, happiness, creativity, and productivity. Over 350 published research studies on the TM technique have documented it’s effectiveness for stress and stress-related conditions, brain function, and more.


Transcendental Meditation Reduces Stress Naturally

Stress is the biggest contributor to mental lack of peace, physical wear and tear/compromised health and social ills. It really curtails enjoyment in life and builds up over the course of one’s lifetime.
The physiology inherently ‘knows’ how to heal itself and eliminate ‘toxic’ by- products of stressful living. However the body needs ‘time-out’ to settle down and naturally ‘refresh’ itself. Because of the habit of incessant busy-ness in life, the physiology needs a ‘smart’ and reliable technique that can predictably and consistently facilitate a condition of such deep rest that will ensure a natural and profound flushing of all stress chemistry from the body. This is the uniqueness of the TM technique.

How TM relieves stress

“People who come to me for relief from stress and stress-related disorders need an effective meditation that’s quickly mastered and produces consistent results.
“Though TM is a mental technique, due to the mind-body relationship the practice has extensive physiological effects. TM allows the mind to settle very deeply inward—in a natural way. TM teachers call this effortless transcending. It’s what sets TM apart and why the technique is so beneficial for mind and body, right from the start.”
