Many people first learned of transcendental medicine in the 1960s when the Beatles traveled to India to practice with its founder. Fifty years later, it has turned out to be anything but a fad. In fact, transcendental medicine, or TM, is more popular than ever and hundreds of published studies have proven its many benefits.

Norman Rosenthal, M.D., is one of the loudest voices not just proclaiming but documenting the litany of proven benefits associated with the practice of TM. He is an internationally acclaimed psychiatrist, researcher, educator and New York Times bestselling author of eight books, including his latest, Super Mind: How to Boost Performance and Live a Richer and Happier Life Through Transcendental Meditation.

Dr. Rosenthal is also a clinical professor professor of psychiatry at Georgetown University School of Medicine and he’s been featured on programs such as Good Morning America, Today, NPR and Dr. Oz, among others.

He defines TM for Growing Bolder and explains how something that seems so simple can be so hard to achieve. Find out why he believes practicing TM can be one of the best things you do for your health and happiness and get his tips for getting started.
