over de TM-techniek
“I can already say that Transcendental Meditation has changed my life, and I’ve only been doing it for just over a week. What results will this lead to after months of practising? I’ll definitely keep you posted!”
Nele De Boeck

“What has helped me in recent years is transcendental meditation.”

“I practise Transcendental Meditation, which is what the Beatles introduced to Europe through Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, an Indian guru.”
Tim Van Aelst
Television producer
“I started doing that towards the end of *In De Wulf*, because I felt I was struggling to be creative, even though I’m actually a very creative cook. That meditation feels like you’re sleeping very deeply for a while: you come out of it feeling much clearer-headed. It means I often suddenly see situations or problems much more clearly and can come up with solutions.”
Kobe Desramaults

“It’s second nature. A bit like a power nap. That’s what we do on tour. Two hours before the show.”
Tom Barman
Artist, Antwerp
“I took a private course in Transcendental Meditation and have started meditating. I make a point of doing twenty minutes of Transcendental Meditation every morning, before I start my day.”
Vincent Van Duysen
Architect
“Ik vind mediteren de beste selfcare die er is. Toen we in Bangkok woonden, heb ik een cursus transcendente meditatie gevolgd, dat probeer ik regelmatig te doen. Het lijkt erg op mindfulness maar dan met een mantra’.

Improve your relationships
Wanneer we ons gelukkiger en minder gestrest voelen, verspreiden we dat goede gevoel op natuurlijke wijze wanneer we met anderen omgaan. De Transcendente Meditatie (TM)-techniek is een krachtig hulpmiddel dat stress vermindert en ons innerlijk welzijn, kalmte en vreugde vrij maakt. Door regelmatig te oefenen, merken we dat we automatisch meer positiviteit in onze relaties brengen.
Contribute to greater harmony in society
Stress verhoogt angst, reactief gedrag, bekrompen denken en intolerantie. Opgehoopte stress schept de voorwaarden voor gewelddadige conflicten in de samenleving. Als de Transcendente Meditatie (TM)-techniek stress vermindert, kan deze dan het collectieve bewustzijn van de samenleving als geheel verheffen? Kan innerlijke vrede wereldvrede voortbrengen?
Frequently asked questions
Short answer: no.
As with learning a musical instrument or a sport, personal guidance makes all the difference. You learn not only what you are doing, but above all how it works for you. That requires coordination, feedback and experience.
Transcendental Meditation is therefore always taught through personal instruction from a certified TM teacher. This makes learning easy, correct and sustainable in your daily life.
There is no other way to learn the authentic TM technique.
And to date, no research has shown that books, videos or alternatives produce the same effects as personally taught TM practice.
The TM technique enables your mind to transcend naturally, or to easily go within, to quieter and quieter levels of thinking, until you experience the quietest and most peaceful level of your own consciousness.
No problem at all. Unlike other forms of meditation, the TM technique does not involve concentration, control of the mind, contemplation or monitoring of thoughts. It is completely effortless.
The effectiveness of the TM technique is the same whether you believe it will work or are completely sceptical. This is because it automatically and effortlessly enables your active mind to reach a state of deep inner peace.
