TM course Day 1: Personal Instruction
The TM course always begins the same way: with an in-person, personalized, private session with a certified TM teacher. In this one-on-one, 1-1.5 hour lesson you will receive your mantra and instructions on how to use it in order to meditate correctly. By the end of this session, you will be able to meditate on your own at home.
Days 2-4 — Choose an option:

A. In-person course
The in-person course lets you take advantage of more interaction and engagement with your TM teacher and benefit from a more structured schedule.
During the days 2, 3, and 4 of the in-person course, you will attend meetings each day with your TM teacher and other new students. These meetings typically last between 1.5-2 hours.

B. Hybrid course
The hybrid course gives you the flexibility to learn at home, at your own pace, according to your schedule. There are two remote elements during Days 2-4: • Self-guided learning where you will review interactive content in the TM app, which takes about 3 hours to complete. If you can't finish it all within 4 days, we ask that you complete it within 8 days. • An online meeting each day with your TM teacher and other new students.

Book a TM course

Whether you take the in-person course or the hybrid course, you will learn:

• How to know if you’re meditating correctly • The mechanics of the TM technique • How to fit meditation into your life • What do different experiences during the TM practice mean and how to respond to them • What you can look forward to with regular practice. After the 4 days of learning, there are two additional sessions that are part of your course—the 10-day and 20-day meetings. There, your teacher will confirm that you are meditating correctly, answer questions, inform you about further opportunities, and lead a group meditation.
