When Johannes Schweigel first experienced the unboundedness of human awareness after learning Transcendental Meditation in 2017, his life was boosted to a whole new level. Suddenly, there was an easy, natural and enjoyable tool to unfold one's full potential. Soon after, Johannes left his career in finance to pursue a path dedicated to understanding, experiencing and unfolding consciousness both within himself and others. He is a doctoral researcher at Maharishi International University, exploring the relationship of consciousness and sound. Since 2023 he also works full time as a teacher for Transcendental Meditation and as a professional coach in the Veda Center Zürich, supporting people on their path to a life full of joy, purpose and success.
Laura Künzler learnt Transcendental Meditation before starting her studies in Social Work. Her studies made her realise that the benefits of TM could be as diverse as the professional field itself. She then took a first step towards implementing TM in social work with her bachelor's thesis on professionalisation and received top academic honours. The TM Teacher Training Course therefore seemed like a logical conclusion to her. With the values of Social Work in her heart, she is there to be of service to all people who want to learn TM and thus have made a life-changing decision towards more happiness and success in life.

What is
Transcendental Meditation?
Transcendental Meditation is a simple technique practised 20 minutes twice a day while sitting comfortably.
It is not a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle. Over ten million people of all ages, cultures and religions have learned TM.
"It is our birth right to be happy, to be alert..."
Hugh Jackman talks about TM
What happens when you meditate?
The TM technique allows your mind to easily settle inward, until you experience the most silent and peaceful level of your own awareness. It is completely different as it involves no concentrating or focusing, no trying to "empty the mind".

My meditation is amazing, one of – if not the – best discovery of my year 2018. I am happy with the results and it seems I am letting go of things from the past.
