“I learned TM in February 2004. I saw it as an investment in my future
health and career but over the years, it has become more than that. For me, it's a
way to retreat from a busy schedule and return refreshed and ready to go again. It
helps me to see the bigger picture and not get worked up about things that previously
would have bothered me. As a musician, I feel that it helps me to perform better and
as a teacher, it allows me to approach the classroom in a relaxed state of mind
which, I believe, in turn has a positive effect on my students. I would highly
recommend TM to anyone who is looking for an easy and effective way to bring
balance into all aspects of their lives.”
