Transcendental Meditation
Transcendental Meditation, the core of the Quiet Time programme, is a simple, easily learned technique, practised by students and teachers while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. It does not involve any religion, philosophy, or change in lifestyle. Over 340 published scientific studies Children meditating through the Quiet Time programmedocument its effectiveness for improving health and learning.
This approach has been adopted by hundreds of public, private and charter schools worldwide—with strong support from students, parents and educators.
Transcendental Meditation is taught in the Quiet Time programme by highly trained teachers with many years of experience.
Initial courses in the UK have replicated the results in the USA, with improved behavioural outcomes amongst students, and relief from stress amongst school staff. Transcendental Meditation is taught as a standardised course throughout the world, which guarantees similarly effective results amongst participating schools.
Quiet Time with Transcendental Meditation is taught through the David Lynch Foundation, established in the USA in 2005 as a 501(c)(3) organisation. In 2012 the Foundation was established as a registered UK charity. The David Lynch Foundation UK works with government agencies, local and national charities, to deliver individual and group programmes to overcome stress-related disorders.
