Transcendental Meditation® (TM) as taught by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi is a simple, natural, effortless technique that is practised twice a day for 15-20 minutes, sitting in a comfortable chair with eyes closed. TM provides the mind and body with a unique and profound state of rest called "restful alertness". In this state, the body gains an extraordinarily deep state of rest (shown to be much deeper than that of sleep) while the mind settles down to experience an alert inner calm and wakefulness. This process dissolves deep rooted stress and tension and rejuvenates the entire nervous system. TM is easy to learn and effortless to practice. Over 10 million people world wide - of all ages, professions, education levels and religions - have learned the authentic TM technique, making it the world's most widely practised, broadly prescribed and extensively researched form of meditation. More than 600 scientific research studies have been conducted at over 250 independent research institutes, medical schools and leading universities in 30 countries.
