The Benefits Are Real
The benefits of the Transcendental Meditation program are real because they have been verified by over 600 scientific studies at more than 200 independent research institutions in 35 countries. This research gives us confidence that the benefits are based on measurable changes in the brain, body, and behavior.
The benefits are also real because they’ve been experienced by millions of people around the world for the past 50 years. In fact, the Transcendental Meditation technique comes from an ancient tradition of knowledge—the Vedic tradition of India. Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the founder of the Transcendental Meditation program, has provided this practice in its full purity and authenticity, ensuring its effectiveness for our modern age.
