Two films for the second season of In Pursuit of Wellness, the award-winning series BBC StoryWorks produces for the Global Wellness Institute. The series has drawn over 3 million page views on BBC.com and 20 million video views.
The first took us to Maharishi International University in Fairfield, Iowa, the home base of the Transcendental Meditation movement, where Dr. Tony Nader, a Harvard- and MIT-trained neuroscientist and head of the TM organizations worldwide, shares the practice and the research behind it.
The second was shot at a hospital in Rhode Island in the wake of COVID, following nurses, doctors, and healthcare workers learning TM to manage the stress of their jobs through the David Lynch Foundation's Heal the Healers program.
