Medical experts agree that the epidemic of stress is damaging our physical and emotional health at younger and younger ages. While there is no one single cure, the Transcendental Meditation technique is a simple practice that dramatically changes how we respond to stress and life's challenges. With benefits including reduced stress and anxiety, and improved focus, sleep, resilience, creativity, and memory, this five-thousand-year-old technique has a clear and direct impact on our very modern problems. Once a skeptic, Roth trained under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and has since become an experienced and sought-after meditation teacher. Roth breaks down the science behind Transcendental Meditation in a new, accessible way. He highlights the three distinct types of meditation - Focused Attention, Open Monitoring, and Self-Transcending - and showcases the evidence that the third, Self-Transcending, or Transcendental Meditation, is a uniquely accessible, effective, and efficient way to reduce stress, access inner power, and build resilience. Free of gimmicks, mystical verbiage, and obscure theory, this is a clear and practical guide to calming mind, body, and spirit. Bob Roth is the host of the SiriusXM radio show Success Without Stress. He is the author of Strength in Stillness.
