Transcendental Meditation (TM) was brought to the world by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi over 50 years ago and has been learned by five million people.
Transcendental Meditation unfolds the full potential of life and extensive research has found it reduces stress and anxiety resulting in more inner peace, creativity, health, success and happiness.
Learn to meditate
Transcendental Meditation is a simple, effective mental technique which allows the mind to transcend and settle to the simplest, most powerful state of awareness. It does not involve any effort, mental control or active thought process.

Maharishi Foundation® has been teaching Transcendental Meditation® in the UK for over 50 years and Liz Court is certified by the Maharishi Foundation as a teacher of TM. “I have been teaching Transcendental Meditation since 1970 and it is a privilege to teach Maharishi’s knowledge and a great joy to see the changes that take place in the people after they learn. You are actually learning Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation and not a look-alike.” —Liz Court.
Free introduction to TM
Free introductory talks on Transcendental Meditation are held regularly over Zoom. Please see below. There are now two ways of taking the course to learn the technique. The traditional way consists of four 1.5 hour sessions, over four consecutive days, a session ten days later and we fully recommend the free 6 month course (one session a month) after taking the training.
The second way is with the support of a Teaching App. The first day is always face to face and one to one when you learn your sound and how to use it. The next three days and tenth day you use the Teaching App with a link up with Liz in the evening for a meditation check. We fully recommend the 6 month course (one session a month) after taking the training. For those travelling from further afield, there is plenty of local accommodation available in and around Bordon, ranging from B&Bs (various prices including 5 star) and country inns.

Quotes from Meditators
“Life is much more peaceful and I am much happier ….” – Kiri
“Worry and stress are but a butterfly in my mind flickering in and out in an instance…” – Paul
“I’m a lot calmer inside and feel less anxious, wound up and stressed ….” – Sandra
“This has been the best birthday present I could ever have received!” “I am a committed meditator with my wife saying I am “nicer to live with”. I have more energy. Getting up early to do my 20 minutes is no problem. This 20 minutes is worth at least 40 minutes in terms of brain resting time.
“After my 20 minutes evening meditation I feel very refreshed and am able to work later. Decision making in my job is now easier and I am no longer ‘scratchy’ and irritable. The pressures are still there but I am now able to deal with them and control them. My irritable bowel symptoms have all but disappeared so that I no longer take any medication. I am now at the stage of actively recommending it to my colleagues, my friends and also my patients.” – Dr. D.W. Robins, Consultant Anaesthetist
TM was my 40th birthday present to myself. It was the best thing I have ever learnt and the best gift as well! At that time my life was very scrambled and I had a lot to sort out. I needed to be able to focus and use my brain better. I wanted promotion at work and it just wasn’t coming my way. Life was very frustrating. With regular practice of Transcendental Meditation my life slowly came together and changes came too. I was noticeably more peaceful, focused and my brain worked better. This incredible brain that no one had ever taught me how to use was working better!! Soon I was promoted and over the years I have noticed many other great changes in me. I have better patience and emotional intelligence probably stemming from an increased self-knowledge. I hope I am a better person and certainly I am having a more rewarding and happier life which again leads to more satisfaction. This in turn has given me a better life work balance.” – Sally Toye, Dreamliner Airline Captain
“Immediately I learnt Transcendental Meditation my health improved along with my career, family and social life…..” – David
“Insomnia and foggy thinking are now history, life is so much calmer and I am not so ‘hyper’ anymore. Therefore, stress levels have dropped so much, in such little time! TM is a wonderful tool; it would have been ideal to have done the course in my teens, but better late than never!” – Gillian Cobb
Dr Tony Nader MD PhD MA RR was named by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi before his passing, as the next in line of the Vedic Tradition of Teachers
