Description

In this episode of The Alchemist Lounge, we sit down with Bob Roth, CEO of the David Lynch Foundation and one of the world's leading teachers of Transcendental Meditation (TM), to explore the science, practice, and social impact of meditation. Bob breaks down the three core categories of meditation, shares how TM delivers deep physiological rest, and explains why his team is working to integrate TM into hospitals, the VA, and workplaces through Meditate America. We also dig into research on the "group effect" of meditation and real-world results from programs like DC Central Kitchen.
