What are the benefits of the
TM technique?

Transcendental Meditation practise provides profound rest to both mind and body. This can dissolve deeply rooted stress in the nervous system and improve how the brain functions. After just a few minutes of TM practise people typically feel more refreshed, clear-minded, and ready for action.

"Whatever the reason we're coming to TM, we're getting the full spectrum of results for our mind and our body."

– Emily Fitz Randolph, certified TM teacher

TM practise is proven to be effective

There are over 480 original peer-reviewed and published studies on the TM technique, conducted from 1970 to the present. That is unprecedented and unique among research on specific meditation techniques.

This research shows that TM provides important benefits to mental and physical health—as well as emotional well-being:

improved brain functioning
increased energy
enhanced creativity
expanded awareness
stronger cardiovascular health
better sleep

"The 'fight or flight' system, which is activated by stress, is reset by TM."

– Fred Travis, Ph.D., psychologist and professor

Hundreds of scientific studies have proven the wide range of benefits of the TM technique

The TM technique for stress and anxiety

The Transcendental Meditation technique has been found to be one of the most effective tools to eliminate stress and reduce the problems that stress can cause: trait anxiety, depression, PTSD, poor sleep and insomnia, and more.

The TM technique for a clearer mind

With regular practise of the TM technique, we experience an expanded consciousness that enriches daily activity, resulting in a clearer mind, more creative and intelligent functioning, and increased ability to overcome challenges.

The TM technique for better health

Reducing stress has a positive effect across the entire physiology. The TM technique has been shown to improve heart function, reduce high blood pressure, result in less need for medical care, and improve immunity.

The TM technique for improved relationships

When we are calmer and more centred, we behave less reactively, with more tolerance and thoughtfulness. Studies on TM practise conducted among students, employees, active duty military and veterans, and people in prisons show improvement in relationships.

The TM technique for societal and world peace

The inner peace of individuals can raise the collective consciousness of society and the world. Studies show that large groups practicing the TM technique and the advanced TM-Sidhi programme correlates with positive change in society and reduced impact of war.
