Creating inner calm

The Transcendental Meditation technique provides a way to access quieter levels of one’s self that are more blissful, expansive, and serene. The deep relaxation gained during just a few minutes of the TM practice releases accumulated stress and fatigue, allowing a mother to be more tolerant, patient, and flexible. After meditation she is better equipped to withstand a push/pull relationship with her teenager.


Physiology & Behavior 35: 591-595, 1985.

Individuals practicing TM showed significantly increased skin resistance (measure of calmness) during the practice, in contrast to controls. 


Dissolving family stress

When a mother can manage her own emotions and is stable and self-reliant, the home becomes the sanctuary it is meant to be. Teens like to bring their friends home when it’s a loving, relaxed, forgiving place. And when parents and children are all meditating, family life becomes more harmonious because stress is released during meditation, instead of through outbursts and arguments.
