Transcendental Meditation is a simple technique practised 20 minutes twice a day.
It is not a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle. Over six million people of all ages, cultures and religions have learned TM.
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 is unique in that it produces unique brain wave activity during the practice of the technique. Researchers have determined that different meditation techniques affect brain functioning in different ways. They also identified three categories of meditation each with its brain patterns in meditation and activity, as measured by EEG.
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.
