Our Foundation was established to ensure that any child in America who wants to learn and practice the Transcendental Meditation program can do so. What Is Transcendental Meditation? It is a simple, natural, effortless technique practiced 20 minutes twice a day while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. It’s not a religion, philosophy or lifestyle. What Happens When You Meditate? Transcendental Meditation allows the active thinking mind to settle inward to experience a naturally calm, peaceful level of awareness. During TM, the body enjoys a profoundly rejuvenating rest, while the brain functions with significantly greater coherence. DAVID LYNCH FOUNDATION
When you look at the voluminous emerging research mind-body meditative tools like Tai Chi and Qigong, and the results they have on student's performance and well-being, treating ADHD symptoms, as well as reducing bullying, anxiety and depression ... you are left wondering why in the world Tai Chi, Qigong, and Meditation are not already part of public education worldwide. World Tai Chi and Qigong (Chi Kung) Day's ultimate goal is to see Tai Chi and Chi Kung taught as part of public education's main curriculum around the world for a healthier, clearer, calmer planet.
WORLD TAI CHI & QIGONG DAY: https://www.worldtaichiday.org/EDUCATIONPUBLIC.html
Years ago we launched a very successful Tai Chi program through the University of Missouri at Kansas City with Learning and Developmentally Disabled Students. The parents were amazed and very happy ...
Yoga is an ancient physical, mental and spiritual practice that originated in India. The word ‘yoga’ derives from Sanskrit and means to join or to unite, symbolizing the union of body and consciousness. Today it is practiced in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, on 11 December 2014, the United Nations proclaimed 21 June as the International Day of Yoga by resolution 69/131. The International Day of Yoga aims to raise awareness worldwide of the many benefits of practicing yoga. The draft resolution establishing the International Day of Yoga was proposed by India and endorsed by a record 175 member states ... UNICEF says kids can practice many yoga poses without any risk and get the same benefits that adults do. These benefits include increased flexibility and fitness, mindfulness and relaxation.
The World Health Organization has also urged its member states to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer and diabetes. But yoga is more than a physical activity. In the words of one of its most famous practitioners, the late B. K. S. Iyengar, “Yoga cultivates the ways of maintaining a balanced attitude in day-to-day life and endows skill in the performance of one’s actions.”
In 1979, Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, a microbiologist working at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester (UMass Medical School), MA, started a modest eight-week program called Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction—inviting patients to take some time for self-care down in the hospital’s basement. More than forty years later, MBSR is taught the world over and has become the gold standard for applying mindfulness to the stresses of everyday life and for researching whether mindfulness practice can improve mental and physical health...
David Black of the Mindfulness Research Guide has been gathering information on the number of scientific and medical papers per year on mindfulness, and the resulting graph is pretty telling. Something that was not on the research map at all a few decades ago is a prime area of interest now. These studies provide the evidence of effectiveness you need to be respected and adopted in key institutions in health care, education, social policy, and so on.
Public Schools are seeing amazing transformation in students being exposed to Mind-Body Education (this needs to happen worldwide). These brain-changes that bring peace to schools have also done so for maximum security prisons, and can do so for the entire planet ... Science and common sense backs up the Global Transformation Project. See more below ...
* When GTP Founder, William Douglas, was commissioned to teach Meditation, Yoga, Chi Kung, and Tai Chi techniques for the Jackson County Court System's (Kansas City) Drug Rehabilitation Program ... after a few weeks one participant confided, "Bill, since you came here to teach us these things--this is the first time since kicking heroin that I have not been constantly gnashing my teeth." The science is in, Mind Body can head off anxiety, depression, and substance abuse, BEFORE it becomes a way of life. GTP Founders experience teaching in and with maximum security prisons has shown him the power Mind Body Education has, even on those already on the wrong path.
"A stitch in time ... saves nine." We could be dramatically reducing Police, Court, Jail & Prison Costs ... and saving so much more by avoiding the family and life tragedies that lead up to those costs. Today, the United States imprisons more of our people than any nation on Earth.
It is way past time to USE science in Public Education!

Science shows that Mind-Body Education creates a more compassionate society ... this could be happening globally on a massive scale, at little cost, with profound benefit to humanity.
Dr. Herbert Benson of Harvard, explains science showing that 60 to 90% of common health challenges are best-treated with Mind-Body practices--potentially saving the world TRILLIONS of dollars in saved health costs worldwide each year, year after year.
Dr. Xia Che is an Education Supporter of GTP's U.N. Resolution for Public Education in Public Education.

Teaching Taiji in a formal PE class in a public elementary school in Everett, Washington, and helped start a Taiji club at the same school.
Over 20 years ago, Founder William Douglas, taught Tai Chi and Meditation to children in an inner city summer school program. The children loved it. His experience teaching children Mind Body practices at all age levels through various programs as well as Public Schools gave him first hand experience showing children are fully capable of Mind Body Education--and find great satisfaction from it.
Children are ready for this, the science is in on it, it is time to USE science in Public Education!

GTP Founder, William Douglas's, experience exposing his grandchildren to Mind Body, confirmed his belief that Mind Body Education cannot begin too early in a child's developmental years. Time to USE science in Public Education!

GTP Founder's experience teaching Tai Chi and Meditation through the University of Missouri Summer College for Developmentally Challenged Students ... showed that these students are in great need of Mind Body Education (their lives are even more stressful), but he and their parents also learned they are fully capable of embracing Mind Body Education. At the end of the summer program GTP Founder and the Students enrolled performed a Tai Chi Exhibition--leaving many parents in tears as they watched their developmentally challenged children flowing through the graceful Mind Body practice of Tai Chi. This had a profound effect on GTP Founder, William Douglas, that was part of the building wave leading to his dedicating his life to THE GLOBAL TRANSFORMATION PROJECT's goal.
