Consciousness and Creativity

"The Transcendental Meditation technique is a simple, effortless way to dive within, to experience an ocean of pure consciousness, pure creativity, pure knowingness.
It's a unique experience but also very familiar - it is your own Self."

David Lynch, filmmaker and chair of the David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness-Based Education and World Peace

Increase intelligence and creativity

Your brain did not come fully assembled at birth. Through the natural processes of maturation and experience, your brain is being created anew at every moment, to support all your thinking, deciding and behaviour. The on-going creation of your brain is a dynamic process.

The experience of restful alertness during Transcendental Meditation creates the optimum condition to unfold your full potential, for maximum intelligence and creativity in a completely effortless way, while preventing the damaging effects of stress on the brain.

Claire Winteringham
Professional artist

"I think painting in watercolours is quite a pure art form. You need space in your head, clarity of mind, some silence to do it. For me, Transcendental Meditation really helps in this way and allows my work to flow with more creativity, more spontaneity."

Jane Bence
Primary school teacher

"Transcendental Meditation gives me the inner resources to cope with a demanding job as a primary school teacher. Creative ideas come naturally and I am able to respond more effectively to each child's needs. There is an easy flow of communication between myself and the children and many people comment on the happy and settled atmosphere in the classroom. I know that this is just a reflection of the happy and settled feeling that TM creates in me morning and evening."
