Thanks to the David Lynch Foundation, Transcendental Meditation is now being taught in schools all over the world.

Transforming Lives: The David Lynch Foundation provides funds for students to learn to meditate through Transcendental Meditation teaching centers, hospital-sponsored wellness programs, boys and girls clubs, before- and after-school programs and in schools when invited by the administration. Instruction is voluntary and is provided to a child with the permission of a parent and at no cost to the family, organization or school. In the past year, the Foundation has provided millions of dollars for thousands of students, teachers, and parents to learn to meditate. The David Lynch Foundation also provides funds for independent research institutions to assess the effects of the program on creativity, intelligence, brain functioning, academic performance, ADHD and other learning disorders, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.

"Transcendental Meditation opens the awareness to the infinite reservoir of energy, creativity, and intelligence that lies deep within everyone. By enlivening this most basic level of life, Transcendental Meditation is that one simple procedure which can raise the life of every individual and every society to its full dignity, in which problems are absent and perfect health, happiness, and a rapid pace of progress are the natural features of life."
- Maharishi Mahesh Yogi (Founder of Transcendental Meditation)

Transcendental Meditation is practiced for 20 minutes in the morning and evening, while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. During this technique, the individual's awareness settles down and experiences the source of thought - a unique state of restful alertness.

During the past 50 years, more than six million people, from every profession, age, educational background, and religion have learned the Transcendental Meditation technique and are rising to enlightenment through their twice-daily practice.
