4 Powerful Points of Transcendental Meditation, by Emily King

Hello Nourish the Brain Community,

It's an honor to be writing my first blog piece for Nourish the Brain Institute.  For those of you who may know, I have been working with Gemi in several capacities, all behind the scenes, for this outstanding institute.  

In this interview, I was privileged to meet for the first time with John Freeman, Transcendental Meditation (TM) Director and Certified Teacher in San Luis Obispo, CA.  

Gemi and I walked into his breathtaking garden oasis and set up filming right away.  I could tell he was not only a profoundly eloquent person but also a fully energized advocate of the TM Community.  As this was my first experience with the concept of this practice, I was all ears about its mechanics.  So, watch the interview and find out what Transcendental Meditation involves, and how it is uniquely set apart from other guided meditations you may have tried.

What makes Transcendental Meditation a unique and that I gleaned from my short time with John? It's just the beginning, but here are a few basics:

• TM is not a religion, philosophy, or a way of life
• Allows for deep rest, restoring and rejuvenating mind and body
• Requires 40 min. of daily practice to access our 4th state of consciousness
• It is EASY to do

Incidentally, I want to also give you a follow up from after this interview took place. I met with John a second time to go deeper into the practical applications and methods of TM.  I will be continuing my personal journey with more TM sessions and will share more details on how it progresses.

Gemi is trained in TM as well and has worked with John for years.  If you are interested in learning more about the process and application for TM, please let us know and we will point you in the right direction. 

Thanks for checking in, and I hope to see you in the next workshop, webinar, or online class!

Yours in health,

Emily King
