Transcendental Meditation (TM) is a simple, natural technique practised 20 minutes twice a day. It is completely effortless — no concentration and no emptying of the mind — which is why anyone can do it. Over eight million people have learned TM, and more than 400 published studies link it with less stress and anxiety, better sleep, clearer thinking and improved cardiovascular health. TM is learned through personal instruction from a certified teacher.
“When the brain is more coherent, that is a breakthrough for how we experience our lives.”
Rena Boonecertified TM teacher
Transcendental Meditation is a simple technique practised for 20 minutes a day, sitting comfortably. It is not a religion, philosophy or lifestyle. More than eight million people of every age, culture and background have learned it.
The TM technique lets the mind settle easily until you experience the stillest, most peaceful level of your own awareness. It is completely different from other approaches, because it requires no concentration and no trying to empty the mind. There is nothing to get right — the mind settles by itself.

First, it is absolutely effortless: no concentration, no control of the mind, no monitoring of thoughts, no trying to empty the mind. Anyone can do it — even children with ADHD. Second, it is proven effective for stress and anxiety, clarity of mind and more. TM is also taught differently: one-to-one, in person, by a certified teacher.

About what TM is, how it is learned, and what to expect.
Imagine learning the violin or a sport — you would want a good teacher to give you the right technique. TM is simple to learn but needs personal, interactive guidance, so it is taught only through one-to-one instruction by a certified TM teacher. There is no other way to learn the authentic technique.
The technique lets your mind experience quieter, calmer levels of thinking without any effort or concentration, until you reach the stillest and most peaceful level of your own awareness — pure awareness.
That is completely fine. Unlike other forms of meditation, TM involves no concentration, no control of the mind and no control of thoughts. It is entirely effortless — you are not even meant to try.
TM simply works, whether or not you believe in it. It is a technique, not a belief. It lets your active, thinking mind settle down almost automatically and experience deep inner calm.
The course fee is income-based so it stays accessible to everyone, and includes personal instruction, follow-up sessions and lifelong support worldwide.
Completely without obligation — even if you are just curious.
