This has been the most life affirming experience that I have had as an adult (age 47). I am blown away by the changes that I already see in my life since beginning TM practice. I am calmer, my sleep is markedly improved, thoughts that have been consistently troubling me are less obtrusive, my thinking is clearer, my productivity has increased, my mood is improved, my outlook on life is improved, and dare I say, I feel happier. Now this is not to say that life is perfect and that I've moved the needle in all these areas from a low extreme to a high extreme. Instead, I notice that there is a positive shift in each of these areas. And I am looking forward to the continued movement toward healing and enlightenment as I continue to build my TM practice. I encourage anyone who is feeling stuck, frustrated, unhappy, etc. to explore TM.
