Teaching is very good as is the app used for follow up. I've gotten quite a bit out of the practice and am very happy I finally decided to check TM out. I came from a mindfulness meditation background... See more

Great course

Peter, our teacher, was amazing. A+. I really liked the in class mediations too. I'd recommend more of them if possible.

I like the quiet that I feel

I like the quiet that I feel, it is relaxing but I feel some disappointment in not having felt transcendence so far. I do trust in the process so I will continue.

Penny Hintz helped me find my reset…

Penny Hintz helped me find my reset with her guidance and gentle nature. I love how TM is forgiving and meets you where you are at. Certainly, TM is unique in comparison to the other forms of mediation and energy cultivation I’ve learned in the past, and I agree I’ve found TM at the right time for me while noticing the initial learning curve was to let go of the other modalities.

TM Teacher

Robert Milota is a warm, engaging, reassuring, uplifting teacher. I chose to meet with him in person for my training and it was an absolute joy!

I was looking for a more spiritual and communal vibe

I was looking for a more spiritual experience, more like a community and ritualistic practice. The teacher was very western and his style. He wore buttoned up clothes and was very put together. His responses were always very dry and matter of fact. I would have appreciated a little bit more soft care, curiosity, and a little bit more interest in the meditators experience. It seemed that he always had an answer ready, and he would bring them back to his point of view. I am used to communities that have a bit more wonder or profundity around these practices. Overall, I think it was just a difference in style. I come from more of a communal, grassroots spiritual background. And this practice was done in an office with a teacher with a button up shirt, and the group was all very normal people with normal jobs.

I really appreciate the practice and will continue to meditate in this way. I am just being honest about the fact that not every teacher is aligned in style and I think this practice can be profound and the way he talked about it. He emphasized it simplicity, but not it’s impact on changing your life.

My TM experience!

I highly recommend taking a Transcendental Meditation class. I decided to take the class as part of my spiritual journey. It has also helped reduce my anxiety and stress. I loved the in person, one on one, instruction because it made my experience more personal and meaningful. The instructor was amazing and she made me feel welcome and like I was now part of the TM family!🤍

Effective and Easy

I struggled with other forms of meditation that required focused attention on the breath or a sound. I found these difficult and tiring. TM on the other hand seems almost effortless and effective at achieving a state of calmness.

Just started TM a few weeks ago

Just started TM a few weeks ago. And my experience has been helpful. Looking forward to sharing more soon. I am enjoying the asanas, breathing and then practicing my TM. Working on and very successful on doing this practice twice a day.
