ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
David Rottenberg reflects on his creative life as an author alongside his lifelong career as a teacher of the Transcendental Meditation® (TM) technique. He explores how creativity arises naturally from inner stillness and why the solutions that emerge from that state are so deeply fulfilling.
Mr. Rottenberg shares stories from his books—especially Gwendolyn, the Graceful Pig, including its journey from page to stage as a live ballet performance. He also discusses his other works, his many years of teaching TM, and the joy he finds in bringing the knowledge of TM Founder Maharishi Mahesh Yogi to his students.
