Thinking About Trying Transcendental Meditation? Here’s All You Need To Know
An honest, no-nonsense review for those on the fence
Recently, I was struggling with a variety of issues. I found myself forgetting names, failing to retain information, unable to focus, and continually experiencing high levels of stress and anxiety. In short, I thought that I was cognitively declining (getting stupider), and starting to doubt myself in all areas — all at the tender age of 29.
Having relied on alcohol and energy drinks as my primary form of pain relief, I decided enough was enough. I’ve done both NLP and CBT — I needed something different. That’s when I re-discovered Transcendental Meditation (TM), an ancient Vedic technique that promised life-changing results with minimal effort. Having flirted with the idea years ago, I decided to bite the bullet and dive in. I participated in a four-day course and practiced as instructed twice a day for weeks. The results have been phenomenal, and now my only regret is not starting sooner.
When I think about why I delayed starting all these years, it boiled down to one issue — uncertainty. I had doubts about so many questions, and I couldn’t get answers from people I trusted.
