I love that book and practice vipassana/mindfulness meditation.

I'm interested in learning more about transcendental meditation and am curious to hear anyone's thoughts on that. Also, is it necessary to do the ~$300 training for it? It almost seems scammy that so many celebrities endorse it but it also has the most peer-reviewed research.

Hi. I grew up in the TM movement. I can answer any questions you may have through PM. It's not necessary to spend large amounts of money to learn meditation. Many places will teach you for free. In Buddhism one is usually taught for free.
