“You Know That Tremendous Feeling Of Power When Your Phone Is Fully Charged?” – Jerry Seinfeld On Why He’s Into TM

The Video: This clip is from the David Lynch Foundation‘s 5th Annual Change Begins Within Gala (on December 3rd, 2013). Jerry first learned the TM technique 40 years ago. The next Change Begins Within benefit concert is taking place at Carnegie Hall in New York City on Nov. 4th. Proceeds from the event will benefit the David Lynch Foundation’s Meditate New York initiative to provide Transcendental Meditation instruction at no cost to 10,000 at-risk New Yorkers, including underserved youth, veterans with post-traumatic stress, and women and children who are victims of domestic violence. You can purchase tickets here.

The Technique: Transcendental Meditation is a simple, natural, effortless technique practiced 20 minutes twice each day while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. It is easy to learn and enjoyable to practice, and is not a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle. Over six million people have learned it — people of all ages, cultures, and religions — and over 380 published research studies have found that the TM technique markedly reduces stress, anxiety, and fatigue, and promotes balanced functioning of mind and body.
