Transcendental Meditation Helps At-Risk Populations

Over the past several years, full TM scholarships have been given to more than 500,000 at-risk students, military veterans and others in need through partnerships with other non-profit organizations and foundations.

The Technique: Transcendental Meditation is a simple, natural, effortless technique practiced twenty 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, peer-reviewed research studies have found that the TM technique significantly reduces stress, anxiety, and fatigue, and promotes balanced functioning of mind and body.
