“I love TM! Andrew Wilks is a great teacher. Thank you so much for everything you're doing to remind us not to make efforts and the nature of the mind!”
“I have struggled for years trying to quiet and still my overthinking mind in order to meditate. TM has changed that dramatically for me in just a few sessions! I’m feeling relief from cptsd, anxiety and fear. I’ll give myself this gift every day from now on!”
“I feel my life has changed in so many ways
The feeling of Calm
The feeling of Clarity
The dissolving of Trauma
The letting go and feeling ever so Present”
“It is easy to do! I have only been doing it for less than 2 weeks and can already see the benefits - increased short-term memory and less prone to anger. The TM app is well made - the timer, access to live events and the short video clips help keep things fresh!”
“I've felt better since the first day. I'm sleeping better, had WAY less anxiety, and I've been able to better focus throughout the day. I'm loving the technique.”
“Our in-person instructor Rita, is truly a gifted teacher. She always took time to answered the most to the most far fetched question we asked. She gave us all confidence that TM should be effortless. She followed up with each of us daily and the whole experience both fun and meaningful.”
“I was a little apprehensive at first, but my teacher John was awesome in explaining each step and put me at ease. Each day, I find new levels of meditation. I think one of the keys is to meditate 2x a day for 20 minutes.”
“I have not seen even a minor benefit to practicing tm for the past two weeks. I will, however continue to practice until I speak with my teacher during my first follow up on 8/31.”
Hi Jeffrey,
We're sorry you're not experiencing any benefits of your TM practice! With over 60 years of teaching the TM technique worldwide, we've seen time and time again how important a follow-up session can be. Often the benefits are noticeable right away, but occasionally it can take some time. It's great you'll be meeting with your TM teacher soon. You can discuss your experience and they can fine-tune your practice if needed! A reminder that you can schedule free, personal follow-ups on an unlimited basis! And you can also connect with us at tmsupport@tm.org
“Over the years I have used mindfulness techniques and guided imagery which all have their place. I have found TM to be a unique, effortless and highly effective way to reach a deeper meditative state. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn the technique.”
“I think the video quality was poor.
The checking in could have been a bit more intriguing. John was good but over all the experience was lacking something for me. I hope my practice continues to bloom with time. I will say the money that’s mixed with spirituality is a turn off for me but I do understand the need. Also offering advanced techniques for additional money feel off to me. My vipassna training was 10 days room and board, amazing food and a lifetime of being able to volunteer at any site around the world. This seems to be a much better model for spiritual techniques. Just my 2 cents.
Thank you.”
We're sorry to hear you're disappointed in your TM course and we appreciate your feedback as it helps us grow and improve!

“Michael Thune was a wonderful teacher. He took the time to explain the information in a way that we all could understand. He has a calming nature about him. Since taking the class it has helped me relax and go deeper. To stop judging myself for thoughts coming and going. I look forward to more classes and a better understanding as my future with TM grows.”
“I was a skeptic but no matter how hard my mind tried to fight me on the whole idea that this would work, it’s starting to work. I’ve only been doing it for a little over a week and I was in the worst mental state ever at my first session. Negative thinking is a habit and I am at a point where I feel like my negative thoughts want to pull me back but there’s something else pulling me in the other direction telling and not allowing me to fully listen to the negative thinking. It’s a great feeling. I used to wake up trembling on the inside with fear of just everything. If less than 2 weeks has made this drastic of a change, can you imagine a few more month, years, decades! I actually see a light at the end of the tunnel. My teacher Michael B. Responded quickly when I went the first email requesting information. And he has been so patient with me through the initial 4 meetings when you start. I would cry at every one in fear that this would not work for me. I can’t even imagine that amazing life I have waiting for me and I’m open to receive it all!! I finally found something to look forward to and that will change my life!!”
