Lifetime Follow-Up Program

One of the distinguishing features of the Transcendental Meditation technique is that it requires no effort. And once you complete the seven-step course of instruction, you can take advantage of a lifetime follow-up program to ensure that your meditation practice remains easy, effortless, and effective.

“Transcendental Meditation has been foundational to years of positive transformation. Relationships grow deep and rich from the basis of silience that is culitivated in my daily practice of TM.”
—Toni Sugg, Mother

Personal Checking

The Transcendental Meditation technique is simple, natural, and effortless. It involves no concentration, no control of mind or body, and no contemplation or analysis of any kind. In fact, the effectiveness of the technique is based on its easy and effortless practice.

After your first day of instruction, you’ll be able to practice the Transcendental Meditation technique on your own at home. On the fourth day of instruction, your teacher will set up an appointment for Personal Checking.

Checking is a simple and comfortable procedure to ensure that you’re meditating easily and comfortably. During Personal Checking, a teacher of the Transcendental Meditation program guides you through the process of effortless meditation. At the end, you’ll have an opportunity to clarify any questions about your meditation practice.

We recommend that you come for Personal Checking once a week during your first month of meditation, and once a month for the first year. Although these Checking sessions are optional, they’re a valuable part of your follow-up program.

There’s no charge for Personal Checking, and you can visit any Transcendental Meditation center in the United States for this service. It usually takes about 30 minutes. You can request an appointment for Checking of your meditation at any time.

Free Advanced Lectures

Free Advanced Lectures are offered by teachers of the Transcendental Meditation program throughout the United States. These events often feature videotapes of Maharishi’s lectures, book discussions, or special presentations on related Maharishi Vedic Science^SM programs. Most meetings allow time for the teacher to answer questions about the knowledge, your experience in meditation, and its results in daily life.
