NBC News recently reported on the benefits homeless teens are finding as a result of the Transcendental Meditation program. According to an article in Psychology Today , in the United States alone, approximately 3.5 million people are homeless and 1.35 million of them are children. Yes, that’s over one-third of the homeless population! These children lack basic necessities–food and clothing, medical and dental treatment, supplies, etc. However, most importantly, these children lack one major thing most humans need and desire—stability. http://www.tm.org/blog/news/meditation-helps-homeless-kids/
