Bob Roth - Quiet Time Changes Lives

The David Lynch Foundation, a nonprofit organization, promotes Transcendental Meditation to reduce stress and trauma in at-risk populations, including youth, veterans, and survivors of violence. The Quiet Time program, implemented in schools, offers students meditation, reading, or napping time, significantly reducing stress and improving academic performance. Research shows meditation decreases cortisol levels, enhances brain function, and reduces behavioral issues. The program also supports teachers, addressing burnout. Meditation's acceptance in schools has grown, with various types like Transcendental Meditation, focused attention, and mindfulness being practiced.
