I am wondering if anyone with misophonia has tried transcendental meditation

(gone through the course).

Here are a couple of things said about TM from the website www.tm.com.

Neural imaging patterns and EEG research show that TM practice produces a unique

state of restful alertness, which can be seen in the decreased activity in the

thalamus (the area of the brain that relays input to all other parts of the

brain) and increased activity in the frontal and parietal cortices (two areas

involved in attention).

We know from research that over time, the practice of Transcendental Meditation

increasingly normalizes—or makes more efficient—that fight-or-flight response.

The unique state of restful alertness gained during the Transcendental

Meditation technique promotes health by reducing activation of the sympathetic

nervous system—which, in turn, dilates the blood vessels and reduces stress

hormones,such as adrenaline, noradrenaline, and cortisol

The Transcendental Meditation technique exercises the critical prefrontal cortex

of the brain—to make the brain healthier, more integrated, and better able to

function together as a whole.

Transcendental Meditation helps quiet the `mind chatter.'

Anyone could benefit from TM and I am wondering if I should get my son (with

misophonia) involved. It sure couldn't hurt.
