The Video: This clip appeared on HuffPost Live following the David Lynch Foundation’s recent webinar Transcending HIV/AIDS, in which a panel of experts discussed the results of using the Transcendental Meditation technique as an adjunct treatment for HIV/AIDS patients. See the full discussion with Bob Roth of the David Lynch Foundation, HIV/AIDS Specialist Dr. Kamiar Alaei, Michael Rouppet, and HuffPost Live’s Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani here.
The Technique: Transcendental Meditation is a simple, natural, effortless technique practiced 20 minutes twice each day while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. It is easy to learn and enjoyable to practice, and is not a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle. Over six million people have learned it — people of all ages, cultures, and religions — and over 350 published research studies have found that the TM technique markedly reduces stress, anxiety, and fatigue, and promotes balanced functioning of mind and body.
