Super Mind: How to Boost Performance and Live a Richer and Happier Life Through Transcendental Meditation

Most of us believe that we live in only three states of consciousness: wakefulness, sleep, and dreaming. But there is so much more.

In Super Mind, clinical psychiatrist and bestselling author Norman E. Rosenthal, M.D., shows how the incredibly simple daily practice of Transcendental Meditation (TM) can permanently improve your state of mind during the routine hours of waking life–placing you into a super-mind state of consciousness where you consistently perform at peak aptitude.

  • To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.

    - Thich Nhat Hanh

  • Rather than letting our negativity get the better of us, we could acknowledge that right now we feel like a piece of shit and not be squeamish about taking a good look.

    - Pema Chödrön
