Unfolding the potential of the mind
Throughout the day we experience the mind in its busy active state. Often it may seem as if the mind is constantly filled with thoughts.
During Transcendental Meditation this activity settles down in a natural way, until the finest level of thought is "transcended" and the mind is left in a simple state of least excitation - a refreshing and deeply relaxing state of restful alertness.
After we have finished meditating, the mind is fresher, quieter, more alert, happier. Any problems that there may have been prior to meditation are frequently seen in a better light.

By gaining access to the quieter, deeper, more comprehensive and intuitive levels of thinking, Transcendental Meditation helps unfold the potential of the mind. Regular practice sustains this development.

"Transcendental Meditation was wonderfully helpful in enabling me to obtain a 2:1 in English from Oxford. It improved my memory and enabled me to think more clearly, sharply, and use original ideas in my essays.
Practising just 20 minutes morning and evening is also very refreshing and energising, so it was very useful for all night essay crises! Best of all, when I took my exams, I never suffered a moment's insomnia or nerves - I felt so calm, I actually enjoyed taking them."
