Tom North is featured in an article about the benefits of Transcendental Meditation in Health Matters Magazine.

Studies show that children who experience physical, emotional and sexual abuse may be marked for life. From stress that is associated with the disruption of early brain development and impairment of the nervous and immune system, to stress that contributes to heart disease, cancer and suicide, child abuse victims are at risk.

North remarks, “After having grown up in an environment of child abuse and domestic violence while having to bear the added burden of covering it all up because we were a famous family, I suffered from the effects that are well-documented. My life was a mess. I was depressed, sick, angry, withdrawn and I made poor lifestyle decisions. I was very fortunate to have had the opportunity to learn Transcendental Meditation (TM) and it was my first step to recovery. I’ve been practicing TM since 1975. I always meditate 20 minutes twice a day. I’m gratified to learn that readers of my book are inspired to learn TM as they seek a brighter, more peaceful life.”
