"More than half our work force practices the Transcendental Meditation program, and the effect has been simply astounding. We are more efficient, productive, and profitable than ever. The atmosphere in the office is much calmer than in other companies, yet the air bristles with creativity and dynamism. I credit this program with the rapid success of our company, and recommend it to everyone else in business."

"My patients notice that their health complaints are exacerbated by stress incurred at work and at home. I tell them that the TM technique is the most effective, scientifically validated procedure to reduce stress and promote health. Of all the things they can do for their health, this has the most far-reaching, wide range of benefits. Hundreds of my patients have learned the technique -- with excellent results. Every company should provide the TM program to their employees to reduce stress, help prevent disease, and promote good health."

"An impressive body of scientific research indicates that practice of the Transcendental Meditation technique by a small proportion of a population reduces stress and creates a positive influence in the entire population. This means that employees in a company practicing this stress-reduction modality will not only benefit the company, but should have far-reaching benefits for the larger society as well."
