“I’ve been keeping to my schedule of twice a day and have been able to keep it to almost the same times each day. I’m really enjoying it and have noticed a continued calm and bit more clarity which is welcome. I’m looking forward to feeling more positive benefits as the practice continues.” Scott ~ Glasgow
“Just wanted to feedback how I’m doing now that we are one week in.
I have been meditating every day twice a day for 20 mins. I look forward to it. Some times are ‘better’ than others but I know to accept what is and most often after a while I feel myself slip into a sense of nothing which is heaven. I’ve noticed my mantra come and go as I get lost in thought of just sheer relaxation. I guide myself to it again when I notice.
My afternoon meditations are so welcomed and often much deeper than the morning. It’s so nice to take 25 mins for myself and shut myself away to relax.
What a breath of fresh air TM is. I literally feel lighter, like I am walking on air with a tall spine and clear, calm mind. Wow. I feel like I am breathing clean cool air and I just feel good! Any feelings of worry or anxiousness have disappeared.
I’ll keep you posted. Just wanted to update you as I’m loving it.
Thank you for your teachings, I am very grateful that you do what you do and branched out on your own to offer TM at a price that people can afford.”

“I do still practice TM most days at least once a day. I find it so helpful in pacing myself as I have now retired, TM keeps me going. Can’t imagine life without it.”

“One of these days I’ll get around to sending you a testimonial/quote. I’ve started with a quote many times but trying to articulate all the
benefits (at all, never mind in a sentence or two) is quite challenging! ”

We are on holiday in Italy at the moment and we did a meditation at over 3000m overlooking some glaciers…

“Over the years I have googled TM when it has come up in a magazine article or on tv. I often thought I would give it a go ‘one day’, but there was always something else to spend the money and the time on. All that changed when over the course of one year I had a car crash, I suffered physical ill health, mental health issues and my dad died. Suddenly I was faced with a very limited body, mind and life. I was forced into putting my health to the top of the pile as I didn’t want to spend anymore time feeling as bad as I did. I made a list of all the good things I could do to my body and mind and TM was on that list. It was finally time to actually be brave and sign up.
I was so nervous, but by now I had read enough about TM online to date to hope that it might help me feel better. I was worried it would be weird (we all saw the yogic flying on tv in the 80s!) I was worried it would be a waste of money if I never used it or hated it. I was worried it would be really hard and I wouldn’t have the ‘right’ brain to do it. I was even worried I would get signed up to all sorts of other stuff on the day and be drawn into some strange organisation. Mainly I was worried that it wouldn’t really help me, because I already had a meditation app that wasn’t really helping.
How wrong I was! And how much this all makes me giggle now I know what TM is to me! In short, it has been AMAZING. Out of all the things I now try to do to keep healthy (diet, yoga etc) it is by far the easiest most enjoyable to stick to. If you had told me in July (when I did the TM sessions) that I would do it everyday, always find time for it, never find myself making excuses to not do it, and actually love it so much that I would prioritise it over other stuff – I would have told you that you don’t know me. I am always great at starting stuff, but then equally great at letting them drop after a couple of weeks.
For some reason, this just hasn’t happened with TM. I think because I can feel the benefit and the changes soooo much, it just keeps me wanting to do it every day. I try to do it in the morning because then the rest of my day is just incredibly easier than if I don’t. I set my little timer on my phone, tell my family to not come in the bedroom and 24 minutes later, out I come smiling and calm, ready for life! When I do leave it until later, I always regret it, because I realise how much better my day would have been if I’d done it first thing. Now my dream is to reach the fantastic goal of twice a day. I already feel amazing doing it once, so watch out world when I sort out my twice a day practice!
Knowing what I know now, I would say the only prerequisites to giving TM a go are if a) you want your life to be massively better and b) you are a human being!
Give it a go – you will NOT regret it.

“It’s been really positive mate. A lot calmer. Sleeping better. My wife says I’m a lot less grumpy. I’m a lot more positive and happy. Great actually.”
Kris ~ Manchester
“I am really enjoying my meditation and have managed to keep it up daily although I rarely manage twice a day with having Aly. But I think 20 mins once a day is still making a difference. On sat I did actually do 2 x 10 minutes while Aly was asleep in the car, I parked up and did it. It’s all as you said during the workshop….I love it!”
