About this listen
Norman E. Rosenthal, M.D., a 20-year researcher at the National Institute of Mental Health and the celebrated psychiatrist who pioneered the study and treatment of Season Affective Disorder (SAD), brings us the most important work on Transcendental Meditation since the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Science of Being and Art of Living - and one of our generation's most significant books on achieving greater physical and mental health and wellness.
Transcendence demystifies the practice and benefits of Transcendental Meditation for a general audience who may have heard about the method but do not necessarily know what it is, how it is learned, or what they stand to gain, physically and emotionally, from achieving transcendence. Dr. Rosenthal clearly and practically explains the basic ideas behind transcendental meditation: It is a nonreligious practice that involves sitting comfortably for 20 minutes twice a day while using a silent mantra, or nonverbal sound, to attain a profound state of aware relaxation.
Alongside exclusive celebrity interviews - in which such figures as Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Martin Scorsese, Russell Brand, Laura Dern, Moby, and David Lynch openly discuss their meditation - Dr. Rosenthal draws upon experience from the lives of his patients and a wealth of clinical research amassed on Transcendental Meditation over the past generation (including 340 peer-reviewed published articles). He provides the fullest and most accessible book ever on the broad range of benefits of this remarkably simple practice - from relief of anxiety, stress, and depression to new hope for those experiencing addiction, attention-deficit disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder.

Good understanding
I had believed this would give me some type of idea on where to begin with TM, mainly just listing experiences and testimonials. It still motivated me to keep uncovering more benefits of TM. Ultimately you cannot learn how to do TM from a book.

For anyone deciding on whether or not to try TM
I've recommended this book to a number of people who were on the fence on whether or not to try TM or another style of meditation (as I was myself before reading it)
I've tried many types of meditation and TM is the only style I've found not only effortless to do regularly, but borderline addictive. I thank the writers of this book for providing me with the information I needed to take the plunge and get an instructor!
NOTE: Does not contain actual meditation instruction - seek a coach for that.
