WHAT IS TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION?
This meditation is a very simple, effortless, easy and very natural mental technique practiced twice daily for 15 to 20 minutes, sitting comfortably with your eyes closed. The only prerequisite for starting is to be able to think a thought; so you’ve just qualified.
HOW TM WORKS:
TM allows the active, thinking mind to settledown and experience a unique state of restful alertness – transcendental consciousness- the simplest form of human awareness; the mind’s total creative and intelligent potential. Research has shown that as the mind settles down, the body also gains a very unique state of deep rest, twice as deep as that of deep sleep, resulting in the release of accumulated stress and the revitalization of the nervous system and body as a whole.
