"A month after regular Transcendental Meditation sessions, I'd given up my 30-a-day smoking habit, without any withdrawal symptoms. Five months later, my blood pressure had decreased significantly without any medicine or extra exercise. I was also sleeping better, has fewer asthma attacks, and found my IBS had eased."

"I tried all the usual things advisable for migraine sufferers, but it wasn't enough," Amanda says. But then she remembered having read about Transcendental Meditation and took the course. "I began meditating twice a day and I've not had a migraine since. It's a simple technique, which is practised for 20 minutes, twice a day. Your teacher tells you how to do it."

"Through Transcendental Meditation I got myself together," Helle states. "I am a more whole person. I feel healed from all the emotional stress. All the stress does not get to me. I just feel more content and complete as a parent, I feel much more able to set boundaries and to give direction and structure."

"I learnt TM 25 years ago and without doubt it is the best thing I ever did. I have regularly practised the technique every morning and every evening and continue to gain great benefit. After practising TM I feel refreshed and ready to tackle life's problems, and have no idea how I would have managed as a full time GP without this technique to reduce stress and charge up my batteries. I have seen literally thousands of people gain benefit from TM and recommend it without hesitation."

- Dr Elizabeth Young, GP, London

"I still find it amazing that a technique that is as effortless as cutting butter with a hot knife can be so powerful in its effects. Since I started Transcendental Meditation I feel more connected, more optimistic, more serene, more competent, and more effective. And these beneficial effects continue to grow."
