In this talk, Roochnik delves into the power of TM and the effect it has on the students she works with at the New Village Girls Academy. For example, fights used to break out on campus everyday. However,since the implementation of TM at the school, fights are scarce.
Guerrero punctuates these thoughts with a personal spoken word piece, in which she discusses TM and the human body.
