Did you know that between Nov 2020-Aug 2021 a randomised clinical trial on Meditation took place in the USA using health care workers. 41 volunteers were in the Transcendental Meditation group (TM) and practiced Meditation for 20 minutes twice a day for 3 months. The 39 volunteers in the control group just had access to wellness resources and didnt meditate.

After 3 months the TM group were found to have less burnout, reduced anxiety and less insomnia compared to the control group.

Would you like to experience the benefits of Meditation in Group setting, including Sound Healing via drumming, singing bowls and Tibetan cymbals? Native American's believe sitting in Circle empowers us more, beyond our individual energies.
