New Delhi, 10th March 2025: In today’s high-pressure corporate world, Transcendental Meditation is gaining popularity as a science-backed practice proven to reduce stress and boost mental clarity, enhancing both productivity and well-being. This method was originally taught by Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in the 1950s. Since then, Fortune 100 companies and even other top Indian companies have adopted this method to improve the productivity of the workforce. But what is TM, and how does it work? By following this method for only 20 minutes in the morning and evening, the employees can undergo deep relaxation, enhanced concentration, and improved resiliency. This changes the work culture in the offices and improves the overall productivity of the workforce.
Organised by Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, TM is practiced by millions scattered all over the globe, even the top CEOs of the Fortune 100 firms. Sumitomo, General Motors, Tata, BHEL, Ericsson, IBM, Toyota, and even Indian business houses like ICICI Bank, Maruti, and Infosys have incorporated TM into their organizations through the Maharishi Corporate Development Programme (MCDP) and have seen marvelous outcomes.
The impact of Transcendental Meditation in the workplace is confirmed by Harvard, Stanford, and UCLA research studies that measured a reduction in the level of stress, enhanced decision-making, and increased overall well-being of employees. TM-practicing companies have measured a 57% boost in productivity, a 56% reduction in hospitalization rates, and a 50% reduction in doctor visits.
