The TM course is not a one-time event but the beginning of a lifelong relationship. Everything below is included in the one-time course fee — there are no hidden costs.
One-on-one sessions with a TM teacher who verifies the correctness of your technique. It is recommended to schedule a checking every few months, or whenever your meditation feels less effortless. Available at any TM centre worldwide.
Thorough reviews of what you learned during the course, including Q&A sessions and group checkings. For the first six months, there are free monthly group sessions.
With meditation timer, practice tracking, educational videos and an events calendar near you. Available once you have completed the course.
The effects measured in research on TM, such as cortisol lower, belong to regular practice. Twenty minutes twice a day, month after month. Follow-up exists to help you keep that up.
When you meditate on your own for years, the technique can change without you noticing. You sit for shorter, skip a session when you are busy, or start making a small effort where TM asks for none. A checking with a certified teacher brings it back to effortless, usually in a single session.
In a difficult period it helps to know where to go. You don't start over or pay again: you call a TM centre and plan a checking. For problems that need more, such as depression or burnout, TM complements care from your GP or psychologist and does not replace it.
TM checkings are one-to-one sessions with a TM teacher that verify the correctness of your TM practice. Schedule a checking every few months, or whenever you need one.

You can go to any of the 20 TM centres in the Netherlands, also if you move. Thoughts during meditation are normal and not a sign you are doing it wrong.
