How TM’s Different From Other Techniques
Bob Roth
Unlike other techniques, the TM technique involves no concentration, contemplation or control of your mind. It is effortless and enjoyable and can be practised sitting comfortably in a chair with the eyes closed.
TM develops global alpha coherence, a pattern associated with increased alertness.

TM is the only meditation practice that has been shown to reduce blood pressure…all other meditation techniques, including Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction are not recommended in clinical practice to lower blood pressure.
Perhaps its greatest benefit is that it’s relatively quick to learn and easy to master. No waiting weeks or months of practice before you see results.
According to both the Australian CSIRO and American Heart Association (AHA), the TM technique is the only meditation technique that has been shown to effectively reduce high blood pressure.
A 2009 study found Transcendental Meditation helped alleviate stress in college students, while another found it helped reduce blood pressure, anxiety, depression and anger.
Imagine trying to learn a natural golf swing or the violin. You know how valuable a good teacher is to show you the proper technique. The TM technique is easy to learn but requires personalised interactive guidance. For this reason, it’s taught only through one-on-one instruction by a certified TM teacher.
There is no other way to learn the authentic TM technique — and there is no evidence that anything else provides the full range of benefits documented in the published research on the TM technique.
No. TM is entirely effortless. Other techniques involve concentration or contemplation. There is no control of the mind in TM. The mind naturally settles down to quieter levels, and the body becomes more rested.
Even if you think you “can’t meditate”, anyone can do it. TM is easy to learn and enjoyable to practice. It uses the mind’s natural tendency instead of fighting against it. It’s 100% natural and effective.
Everyone can practice TM, including people with ADHD, autism and children from 10 years of age. TM doesn’t involve any concentration, but as a result, your ability to concentrate increases in daily life.
The TM technique’s effectiveness is the same whether you believe it will work or are completely sceptical. That’s because it automatically and effortlessly allows your active thinking mind to settle down to a state of deep inner calm.
