Is Transcendental Meditation Worth the $2000 Price Tag?
I've been hearing so much buzz about Transcendental Meditation lately from celebrities and influencers. They all rave about how life-changing it is, but the $2000 cost for training seems really steep. As someone interested in holistic wellness, I'm intrigued but skeptical. Has anyone here tried TM? Do you think the benefits justify the high price, or is it overhyped? I'd love to hear people's firsthand experiences before considering such a big investment in my meditation practice.
Seeking advice on handling conflict between my partner and my wellness practices
My partner and I recently had some guests over, including his uncle. The uncle made several critical comments about the meditation corner and yoga props I have set up in our living room, saying they look 'weird' and should be put away. I calmly explained that these items are important for my wellness routine and mental health practices. When he continued to insist they shouldn't be on display, I firmly told him he was welcome to leave if my home decor bothered him that much. He got upset and left, and now my partner thinks I should apologize for being 'rude'. I don't feel I did anything wrong by standing up for myself and my lifestyle choices. Any advice on how to handle this situation or gain perspective? I want to maintain healthy boundaries while also keeping peace in the family.
