As part of a BBC Storyworks Film, Dr. Tony Nader MD PHD, world-leading neuroscientist and leader of the Transcendental Meditation organisation, explains the basics of the TM technique and how it can transform lives with the impact of regular practise on the brain.
Marrying modern science and ancient spirituality, Dr. Nader and others such as Dr. Fred Travis, have scientifically validated the impact that the thousands-of-year-old Vedic practice has on the individual.
During the typical, waking state of consciousness, different parts of the brain operate individually. As can be seen on the brainwaves scanner conducted when performing Transcendental Meditation, the brain interacts coherently, as if the whole brain is functioning as one organ.
This outcome is significant for how you feel post-meditation, such as a settled body, rested mind and having an expanded awareness. This process, when repeated regularly, has scientifically-validated holistic benefits on the mind and body such as reduced anxiety and depression, increased creativity, and improved heart health.
