TM course fee
TM is taught by a registered educational charity committed to making TM’s benefits available to as many people as possible. To honour this mission, the TM course fee is based on your annual individual income and can be paid in instalments.
Calculate your fee by selecting your annual individual income range. We use an honour system and trust in your integrity.

Frequently asked questions
Your annual income is your individual gross income (before taxes and expenses). We won't ask you for evidence of your income, we rely on your integrity.
If you choose to pay in instalments at checkout, your total course fee is split into equal monthly payments with no interest. The exact number of payments is set by Klarna and shown before you confirm your booking. The first payment is taken when you book, and the rest are charged automatically each month after that.
Those on universal credit, state pension only, full-time students with an NUS card, or any other similar circumstances qualify for the concession rate.
We have a special discounted rate of £195 for school children aged 10 and over. Children aged under 10 pay only 25% of their primary caregiver's fee.
There are also special rates for families.
Hybrid and in-person courses both include a one-to-one personalised instruction session. They also include follow-up sessions that take place in person, online, or a combination of these options, according to your preference. Whether you opt for a hybrid or in-person TM course, you will be guided throughout your course by a certified TM teacher. After your course, you will also benefit from ongoing support from your teacher, or any TM teacher across the UK. Both courses also include access to the TM app, which comes with a TM timer, a library of knowledge, and access to group meditations.
The Transcendental Meditation technique is only available in the UK through Maharishi Foundation, registered educational charity number 270157 (England & Wales), XR20456 (Northern Ireland), and SC041919 (Scotland).
All revenues from course fees go entirely to support the organisation's educational and charitable initiatives.
Over the past several years, full TM sponsorships have been given to more than one million at-risk students, military veterans and others in need through partnerships with other non-profit organisations and foundations.

Book a TM course
Most of the TM course takes place according to your preference: either in person or remotely. The first session, however, is always held in person, at a local TM Centre or teaching space. The TM course is offered in 80+ locations in the UK, including most major cities.
Taught by a non-profit
For over 60 years, the Maharishi Foundation has made Transcendental Meditation available worldwide, training teachers who have brought the practice to millions of people. It has also been involved in many charitable initiatives, including providing free meditation instruction to under-served communities and supporting the establishment of TM Centres in developing countries.

Integrated brainwave functioning during and after practicing the TM technique
EEG tests show that alpha-one brainwaves, which appear during TM practice, differ from the theta brainwaves associated with mindfulness meditation. Alpha-one brainwaves support integrated brain functioning, leading to improved cognitive abilities and a state of calm alertness that extends beyond the meditation session. Further, research shows that transcendence in TM practice is associated with a state of brainwave coherence across different parts of the brain, which also contributes to more integrated brain function.
