Hi James,
If you haven’t already, we recommend going in for a follow-up session with your teacher. They’ll check that you are still practicing correctly and help you get the most out of your practice. While you’re there, you can also talk to them about our satisfaction guarantee, if you continue to be dissatisfied with your practice.
“Started out great, but now a month into it and not getting as much as I hoped for. My instructor has been very helpful working through this with me. I’ve been very faithful about meditating 2 times a day, just was thinking I’d see /feel differently as a result...”
Hi Sue,
Glad to hear you’re in touch with your teacher and continuing to practice regularly. If you continue to feel dissatisfied with your TM practice, you’re welcome to speak to your teacher about our satisfaction guarantee.
“TM gave me the ability to self-regulate after a single session; I had been going through a catastrophic loss (due to contamination of my home) since five years and was extremely depressed and suicidal. I have not missed a single practice, and now, three weeks later, I am calmer and more capable to face & resolve my crisis.”
“I missed some days in the beginning, but now have completed two weeks for 20 minutes twice a day. I believe it is helping me so much. I am finding more clarity and less stress in my life. Feeling more calm and centered.”
“Was on board until the final day of training when my graduation packet was tantamount to a catalog of TM related packets—was even told further courses could “fast track enlightenment.” Could be good, but ultimately felt like I was sold snake oil”
Hi William,
Glad to hear your are keeping at it! The amount of time it takes to feel the benefits can vary. It sounds like you’d also benefit from a free follow-up session with your teacher - practicing correctly is crucial to receiving the benefits. You can also speak to your teacher about our satisfaction guarantee, if you’d like to pursue that.
“I been doing it for over a month as learned a d it doesnt seem to work for me
My mantra doesnt make any sense
I wish i wouldnt have fall for 900 for this course ... waste of money. I could have gone meditate at any other meditation center”
Hi Maggie,
We’d like to recommend you schedule a free follow-up session with your TM teacher (they can answer any questions you still have about your practice), but also remind you that we do offer a satisfaction guarantee. It sounds like that might be your preferred option, and your TM teacher will also be happy to help with that!
“I’ve been doing TM for more than a month — for the first time ever I’ve been enjoying meditation. I’m still mostly drowned in my thoughts while doing it but after it I feel much calmer and more focused. I’m very happy I joined the TM community.”
“Life changing. No joke. I have a crushingly high stress job and have only been able to work and sleep. I have been able to access new energy and the bandwidth to do things outside of work thst I haven’t had in decades. The technique is easy to do and easy to make time for. I hope it’s as effective for others as it has been for me.”
