I have been exposed to different forms of meditation, and I personally prefer the Transcendental Meditation form. Under TM, one repeats a nonsense phrase while in a quiet place with one&#x27;s eyes closed. After a bit, a self hypnosis occurs, and one&#x27;s mind takes a little acid trip. Afterwards, about 15 to 20 minutes, I feel like a just woke from a refreshing nap and I have great clarity of mind. 
Comparing this to Mindfulness, which I am not completely understanding, seems like a completely different type of meditation that takes one&#x27;s presence (what you&#x27;re supposed to be doing) into the mediation, whereas TM is like a 20 minute vacation from what you&#x27;re supposed to be doing.
