It has been some time since I have written an article. I guess I can put it down to being side-tracked by other activities (mainly other work).

The TM technique and TM movement was developed by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in India. The Maharishi taught thousands of people and then began training people to become TM teachers through organizations.

Online Retreats in Real Time
My fingers have been walking I have been combing the internet looking for and researching online retreats. In particular, I was searching specifically for online retreats for women and men, couples retreats and retreats for everyday life. And even more specifically I was looking for the more traditional meditation/spiritual based online retreats that are focused on deepening concentration, insight, raising our awareness and consciousness and getting in touch with our true self.
