Start the New Year with four days of deep rest and rejuvenation. On our virtual winter retreat, your home will become your very own retreat centre as you practise the Transcendental Meditation technique and TM-Sidhi programme on a restful online schedule.
With this time spent on your TM programme, plus a private group meeting with Tony Nader, MD, PhD, MARR, additional knowledge meetings, and more, you will enter 2021 feeling refreshed and inspired.
Highlights

Deep rest
To rejuvenate and prepare for 2021, course participants will spend four days giving special priority to their TM programme. After the first session on the evening of 30 December, participants will enjoy a structured programme of enjoyable meditation in the comfort of their home, as well as refreshers on the Maharishi Yoga Asanas to deepen their experiences during TM practice.

Profound knowledge
Another key aspect of the winter retreat will be beautiful knowledge in the form of recorded lectures from Maharishi, played over Zoom. In both the afternoon and evening sessions, participants will be treated to beautiful advanced lectures on themes such as love, devotion, and personal growth — all carefully selected by MERU faculty to structure the deep experiences enjoyed during programme.

Online group meditations
In addition to doing extended programme privately, course participants will also be able to connect for synchronised online meditations throughout the course. These online group meditations will be a way to enjoy the warmth and coherence of the community from a distance.
