What surprised me the most about TM is how easy it is to meditate. that doesn't mean every time I transcend, sometimes my thoughts get it the way, but I let it, I accept it, and I don't fight it.. a... See more

I'd been interested in trying TM for many years, and due to some recent stress in life, I decided now would be the perfect time. I'm so glad I did, as I find each meditation brings more calmness to me... See more

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

I found TM because my husband was diagnosed with cancer(thankfully it has a 90% cure rate!) My regular meditation practice was not helping. My GF told me about TM. It has changed my life! I’m still very early in the practice and have much to learn, but I was able to transcend @ my first lesson. Unfortunately, haven’t had the same experience since then but I do feel different. In a good way! I can’t wait to get to the point where transcending becomes easier and I am able to practice wherever I am no matter what the environment.

Thank you Cheryl for being an amazing teacher!

It was an excellent class

It was an excellent class, very well organized and got us started on understanding and utilizing TM. Meena was wonderful, we both enjoyed it and are able to utilize it at home.

TM came exactly when it was supposed to.

I had been putting off the TM course for a number of years (mostly because of the cost). Something told me now was the time so I took the course with Cheryl. TM came into my everyday world because Cheryl was meant to be my teacher. A gem of a soul. Kind, caring, and understanding. A reassuring, soothing voice that lets you know you’re doing the right thing at the right time. I left our first meeting relaxed, calm and reassured that I will be okay. Mahalo nui loa, Cheryl.

I highly recommend the TM (Transcendental Meditation) course. My teacher, Wolly, was patient, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout the entire learning process. The practice has brought me a deep sense of inner peace, reduced stress, and helped me reconnect with myself in a meaningful way.

Since learning TM, I feel calmer, more focused, and better able to handle daily challenges. Wolly's guidance made the experience comfortable and inspiring. I am truly grateful for this life-changing practice and would recommend it to anyone seeking greater balance, clarity, and well-being.

Thank you, Wolly, for helping me discover a deeper connection with myself.

Amazing TM program (at Mountain View)

Amazing TM office (Mountain view) with very experienced, patient, kind and committed instructors. My teacher was a reknown cardiologist. Between the introductory sessions, to the initiation sessions and the follow-up sessions that i attended with my teenage son, we right away fell into the practise. Its simple, easy to practise and you feel the impact right away. Highly recommend this program and office to anyone looking to better their health, mental and physical.

My husband and I are starting this journey at the same time. I sense that we are discovering more about each other even after many years of marriage.
We are having some technical difficulties with the alarm but will soon figure it out, I’m sure.

My experience thus far with TM has been life changing! Within my first week, I was able to not let things at work bother me like they used to. I'm more patient with myself and others. Wish I took the leap 5 years ago, I can only imagine the level of complete peace I'd be experiencing now, but I'm here now and enjoying every minute! I highly recommend TM!

TM intro class Experience - Life-changing…

The TM intro class has had a profound effect on my daily life. I feel more calm and peaceful than ever with clarity of thought growing each day. The teacher was kind and responsive to supporting me through the class.
Life changing experience paving the way forward with such freedom. I recommend this to anyone ready for anxiety and worry-free living.

TM has supercharged my meditation practice!

transcendental meditation has thrusted me beyond the plateau i was stuck at in my mindfulness meditation daily practice in the very first week of practicing it. I am more relaxed than ever, more patient, more connected. I love this meditation technique and the teachings have been serene.

I'm really feeling the benefits of TM

I'm really feeling the benefits of consistent meditation twice daily. I am releasing stress and have an inner calmness I didn't have before. It's centering me and releasing built up stress and trauma from many years ago.
