“It's a very useful meditation technique but, to be entirely honest, I don't think the price is justified. I felt I paid all that money for a word and an hour's worth of useful information. The instruction provided on days 2-4 didn't add a lot of value to my experience. I felt it was too unstructured, there was very little interaction fostered among attendees, and the instructors didn't have a lot of useful information to convey. I'll continue to use TM but if they want to charge that kind of fee, then they need to seriously revamp their coursework and find instructors who can better relate to newcomers. It's too bad because I was really looking forward to the class for many months.”

“A bit more lecture than discussion. I would have liked to open up for Q&A as a group given the new concepts and model of TM.”

(Walnut Creek, CA) - Posted 4 years ago

Hi, We're sorry you didn't enjoy your TM course experience! We wanted to remind you that you are able to schedule free follow-ups, or attend group meditations, any time for free! Both provide the opportunity for a more open Q&A discussion :)

“Although I enjoy the practice of meditation and am benefiting from it, I don’t think it was worth the money spent. The fee was quite high for what was provided. Having meditated for a number of years, this practice does not differ nearly enough from other disciplines to justify such an expense. I hope the TM community will consider lowering their fee. Thank you.”

We're happy to hear you're enjoying your practice! We want to remind you that the one time cost not only includes your instruction in the TM technique, but also free and unlimited follow-ups, group meditations and meetings at any TM center in the United States for life!

“a very simple technique to learn”

(Garden City, NY) - Posted 4 years ago

“Good so far. Relatively Easy. Have noticed some clarity and energy uptick.”

(Gulf South, LA) - Posted 4 years ago

“I’m enjoying it. I’m practicing it 2x day for 20 minutes each session. It has helped. I have a more long term approach to the benefits of it. So far so good.”

(Central Jersey, NJ) - Posted 4 years ago

“I've been meditating since I was a baby, yet of course, was unaware of what I was doing until August of 2012. So, I rated TM as acceptable because I thought I would experience something different, maybe something that I may have been missing. Unfortunately, after a month of TM 2x/daily I have not received any different results than what I have already experienced.”

“It’s a struggle for me. Texted my teacher last week. Haven’t heard back”

(Boone, NC) - Posted 5 years ago

It's likely unintentional that you have not received a response to your text. We'd be happy to help connect you with your teacher if you still haven't heard back. Please let us know :)

“So far my experience hasn’t been that great. Three times while meditating I have thought about some trauma and started crying. I ended the sessions feeling depressed, not calm.”

“Overall I really like the method. Perhaps what I am underwhelmed by is the instruction and the answering of some of the common questions that come up relating to some of the initial challenges. They seemed to be more “brushed off” than addressed as common and importantly providing ideas to help improve the experience. It is no simple or effortless in the beginning and there are many questions that arise about whtlether or not the technique is proper. The explanations were left to the old videos of Maharaji who’s explanations are extremely difficult to comprehend.”

We're sorry to hear you didn't have the best experience during your TM course! If you'd like, you are welcome to schedule a free, one-to-one follow-up with your TM teacher (or any TM teacher in the United States) to discuss your experience practicing the TM technique and have any of your questions answered more directly :)

“The technique I am enjoying some of the teachings around it being the other thing that works is concerning and does not sit well. The teachers are kind it just to me feels dangerous and misleading to state no other meditation works or has worked. The wording feels coltish and does not provide safe space for people to descern for themselves if it works or not. Just my experience. Try it on for yourself.... like I said it’s not the technique it is the other things said that pose red flags.”

(Denver, CO) - Posted 5 years ago

We are glad to hear that you are enjoying your practice! And thank you for your feedback. We’d like to clarify that while one of the unique things about the TM technique is that it's consistently effective and evidence-based, we don’t mean to say that other meditation techniques don't have value. Other meditations can be a great addition to one’s self-care ’toolbox’. It's just best not to substitute one for another and expect the same results :)

“Only doing once a day😢 Must improve👏🏽”

(Santa Rosa Beach, FL) - Posted 5 years ago

“I have been restless maybe due to recent injury. It has made meditation challenging”

(Cleveland, OH) - Posted 5 years ago

“Kinda what I expected.”

(Dallas, TX) - Posted 5 years ago

“It's fine... but not much different than the meditation I was doing before... only difference is, that is a mantra meditation. Not quite sure it's worth the money... sorry.”

(Walnut Creek, CA) - Posted 5 years ago

Other meditations generally involve some kind of observation or concentration, whereas the TM technique doesn’t involve any focused attention or observation of experience. It’s a mantra-based meditation that naturally results in self-transcending. If you are finding your TM practice to be similar to other techniques we suggest scheduling a free follow-up with your TM teachers to fine tune your practice so it's more enjoyable and beneficial :)
