Not a bad article, just don’t sit like that! For goodness sake sit comfortably.
“While meditation is not a cure-all, its ability to reduce stress and support mental and cardiovascular health make it a vital tool. By addressing the mind-heart connection patients can take proactive steps to lower their risk of heart attacks and improve their quality of life.”
“I really enjoyed the session tonight. It was good to join in and hear others experiences of TM and their practice.
I think it was a bit of a leap of faith when I committed to learning TM all those years ago, but its been worth it as its opened doors to other things and been a fascinating tussle/struggle to keep holding on and working towards something that I now couldn’t imagine not being part of my day. Thanks again.”
Sue ~ North Yorkshire (Learnt TM in 1995)
“It was great to jump back into a group session. Please count me in for the next one.”
Oliver ~ Cheshire (Learnt TM in 2016)
“Thanks yes please I will go to the next TM refresher, I found the last one very helpful. I’ve been sleeping really well so I think I’m already seeing the benefits.”
Anne ~ Ireland (Learnt TM online in June 2025)
“Thank you for tonight, I really enjoyed it. It really helped being talked into it and was good hearing from other people”
Allison ~ Newcastle upon Tyne (Learnt TM way back)
“Thanks for this evening I really enjoyed it and learned a few tips that I’m sure will be useful. More specifically I feel a greater motivation to resume meditation.”

Celebrity biographer Shawn Levey, author of Clint The Man and the Movies, points to one cornerstone of Clints routine : Transcendental Meditation. “Clint has practiced TM twice a day since the 1970’s” Shawn writes. “He’ll slip into a quiet corner between takes on a shoot or carve out a few minutes before lunch – mantra in mind, eyes closed, completely still.”
According to the TM org, “this practice dissolves stress and taps into your full potential.” A claim Shawn believes has kept Clints mental edge razor sharp, even as he’s played tough trigger happy characters like Dirty Harry and The Man With No Name.https://www.hellomagazine.com/celebrities/846759/clint-eastwoods-surprisingly-simple-secret-to-longevity-at-95/
Many people find TM (Transcendental Meditation) makes a big difference in helping improve mental health. Having the chance to pause, step back from the day and enjoy short periods of proper relaxation of mind and body through a meditation that is easy to practice and doesn’t involve any concentration or emptying of the mind becomes one of the pleasures of the day.
Life on the road doesn’t leave much room for calm, but Chris carves it out with Transcendental Meditation. “(It) has been really wonderful for me.” he revealed.

Normalisation of Blood Pressure has always been one of the most commonly reported benefits of practising TM (Transcendental Meditation) Have you noticed this?
A Recent Email :
“Earlier in the year I was in a very unexpected stressful situation and it affected my health resulting in my blood pressure shooting up through the roof. I had to be monitored every 20 minutes over a 24 hour period and being a nurse myself I had to look at the readings. It came as no shock that after both twenty minute TM meditations (which I timed around the machine going off) drastically reduced my blood pressure; the first had dropped from 137/76 to 114/62 and the second dropped from 154/76 to 117/68.
We are finding the meditation very beneficial and are still practising twice a day apart from the odd ones missed. We both agree its the best decision we’ve made.”
Trish & Keith ~ Whitehaven, Cumbria (Learnt TM online May 2023)
I’ve been running monthly T.M refresher sessions (online since 2020) here in the north east UK for over 40 years and they offer an opportunity to keep in touch, answer questions and a recharge/refresh for peoples meditation experience.
One persons TM experience :
“I’m afraid I fell off the meditation wagon (if there is such a thing!) with a new baby, changing time zones etc… but have just done a solid week back in the groove – feels good! I have no idea why the human mind (or just mine) would resist doing something which feels so good each day, but perhaps therein lies the problem!
I am back in the UK in a few weeks and look forward to doing a refresher or one of the group meditations then.”
Paul ~ London (Learnt TM online January 2025)
One persons experience :
“I came across Transcendental Meditation at a chance business meeting, one of my previous work friends during lunch asked me how my benign cluster headaches were since we last met.
For many years now my quality of life has been affected by these re-ocurring headaches which could last for up to 3 weeks. During these years I have tried every known type of medication and treatments and none of these had any impact.
Following my colleagues recommendations I attended one of the TM courses at Ringwood in 2015.
Since that time I have meditated once every day for 20 minutes and I have not had any of these headaches in this period. This is truly life changing for me and I feel a more relaxed person.
TM has really helped me, I feel less stressed as a person and the meditation helps me get off the magic roundabout of life.”
David ~ Portsmouth, Hants, UK
