A meta-analysis of all research studies on the Transcendental Meditation program related to alcohol use, in comparison to meta-analyses of standard alcohol treatment and prevention programs, found a significantly greater reduction of alcohol use among those who learned the Transcendental Meditation program, even though this program does not involve any guidance about change in lifestyle or habits.
