Enjoying school? TM helps students learn and enjoy the process

At the Maharishi School in England, students are expanding their mental potential by practising the Transcendental Meditation Technique, the foundation of Consciousness-Based Education. The results are tangible—and enjoyable—as these students describe:

‘I really like the lessons in the Maharishi School because everyone is so focused and alert, and ready to learn,’ said a young lady. When the students have fresh, receptive minds, ‘the teachers can give you involving, and fun and great work that you can really get into,’ remarked the student.

Practised for a few minutes twice daily, the Transcendental Meditation (TM) Technique produces a state of restful alertness, a unique physiological state of deep rest for the body and greater mental clarity.

‘I enjoy doing my TM because I feel it refreshes me for the school day, or any other normal day,’ said a student.

Stress associated with studying and examinations is common for many students today. Said a young lady, ‘Consciousness-Based Education and the TM Technique make the whole process easier and more enjoyable.’

A young man who attends the Maharishi School said, ‘If you don’t manage time well it can become very stressful. Using the TM Technique helped me a lot to manage the time, to fit things in.’

‘I find that meditation helps quite a lot with my studies, I can focus a lot more and stay concentrated, and before exams I feel much calmer. . . .’ said another student.

A fellow student expressed a similar experience: ‘After a day of school [TM] takes away all my stress, so I have energy to start again. All throughout my studies I’ve been a top student, and I owe this to TM. I can’t think how people would live without such a technique.’
