Effectiveness of Transcendental Meditation for Dissolving Stress and Promoting Health
Thursday, January 21, 2021 • via Zoom • 12:00 noon U.S. Central Time

Clinical trials and meta-analyses demonstrate that the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique relieves anxiety, burnout, depression, insomnia, PTSD and substance abuse. National Institutes of Health-funded research supports these findings. TM significantly alleviates and prevents cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, hypertension, and other coronary risk factors.
"Science was previously thought to focus only on the material, but there is also a science of the mind. Psychology is now considered a science, because we know that quantifiable laws govern the mechanics of thinking and behaving and action and reaction on the mental level. Even the experience of consciousness is amenable to scientific investigation. The knowledge of Transcendental Meditation, through investigation, has shown quantifiable results. It has been found to be an effective tool to clean up the system, to nourish and strengthen body and mind."

MDED 400: Physician Wellness through the Transcendental Meditation Technique
The Purpose of Meditation With Tony Nader, M.D., Ph.D.

People who practice the Transcendental Meditation technique experience inner stability and relief from anxiety. TM meditators experience a state of restful alertness, which is distinct from waking, dreaming or deep sleep. What more can we expect from continued regular TM practice?
Chicago Medicine articles about the Stritch class
"The relief and the increased alertness I felt from transcendental meditation led me to score better on my board exam than I could have imagined. Every medical student should receive training in TM: they should also see the science showing its promising outcomes."
I can't imagine physicians doing what we do without the benefit of the TM technique. As a senior administrator, I see too many physicians burned out, overwhelmed, and unable to perform their jobs well. Our patients see that too. TM eliminates the stresses and strains that we pick up during the day, allowing us to think much more clearly, to be much more focused on what we do, and most importantly, to enjoy what we do.
