A Profound New Book From Dr. Tony Nader: The Power of Caring
2026-05-05 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With Special Guest Dr. Tony Nader, Hosted by John Cowhig
Please join us for a very special Creating Coherence meeting with Tony Nader, MD, PhD, internationally renowned neuroscientist trained at Harvard and MIT, leader of the worldwide Transcendental Meditation® organizations, and author of the New York Times bestseller Consciousness Is All There Is.
Dr. Nader will share practical insights from his new book, The Power of Caring, which arrives on July 28. In this timely work, he offers a fresh and compelling perspective on consciousness, compassion, and the development of human potential — written clearly and simply, for a broad audience.
This online gathering offers a rare opportunity to hear directly from one of the world’s leading voices on consciousness, human development, and the future of personal and collective well-being.
In The Power of Caring, Dr. Nader explores caring as a direct expression of consciousness and a natural pathway to fulfillment, connection, and collective coherence. Blending timeless wisdom with practical insight, he shows us how expansion of awareness gives rise to compassion, resilience, and harmony in daily life.
This is not a book about trying harder or being a better person. It is about understanding that real, conscious caring reflects the way Nature itself functions, and that when awareness grows, caring naturally arises.
This book speaks directly to something you may already be experiencing through your TM practice: a growing sense of interconnection, a deeper feeling to contribute, a natural expansion of caring — along with a desire to understand why.
We hope you’ll join us for this inspiring conversation.
Begins with a 20-minute group TM.

Un nouveau livre d'une grande profondeur du Dr. Tony Nader: The Power of Caring (en anglais)
2026-05-05 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | En ligne
Avec l’invité spécial le Dr Tony Nader, animé par John Cowhig
Nous vous invitons à une rencontre «Créons la cohérence » tout à fait exceptionnelle avec Tony Nader, MD, PhD, neuroscientifique de renommée internationale formé à Harvard et au MIT, leader des organisations mondiales responsables de l’enseignement de la Méditation Transcendantale®, et auteur du best-seller du New York Times Consciousness Is All There Is.
Le Dr Nader partagera des réflexions pratiques tirées de son nouveau livre, The Power of Caring, qui paraîtra le 28 juillet. Dans cet ouvrage d’actualité, il propose une perspective nouvelle et captivante sur la conscience, la compassion et le développement du potentiel humain — le tout rédigé dans un style clair et simple, destiné à un large public.
Cette rencontre en ligne offre une occasion rare d’écouter directement l’une des figures de proue mondiales dans les domaines de la conscience, du développement humain et de l’avenir du bien-être individuel et collectif.
Dans The Power of Caring, le Dr. Nader explore la bienveillance comme une expression directe de la conscience et une voie naturelle vers l’épanouissement, la connexion et la cohésion collective. Alliant une sagesse intemporelle à des conseils pratiques, il nous montre comment l’élargissement de la conscience fait naître la compassion, la résilience et l’harmonie dans la vie quotidienne.
Ce livre ne vise pas à vous inciter à redoubler d’efforts ou à devenir une meilleure personne. Il s’agit plutôt de comprendre que l’attention authentique et consciente reflète le fonctionnement même de la nature et que, lorsque la conscience s’éveille, l’attention naît naturellement.
Cet ouvrage aborde directement ce que vous ressentez peut-être déjà à travers votre pratique de la MT: un sentiment croissant d’interconnexion, une envie plus profonde de contribuer, un élargissement naturel de l’attention — ainsi qu’un désir de comprendre pourquoi.
Nous espérons que vous vous joindrez à nous pour cette conversation inspirante.

How One Woman Taught TM to 1% of Ottawa’s Civil Servants
2026-05-12 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Toronto) | Online
With Special Guest Jocelyne Comtois, Hosted by John Cowhig
Canadian TM teacher Jocelyne Comtois, working directly with Maharishi, pioneered the creation of Science of Creative Intelligence (SCI) courses for businesses and government. Her research on TM’s effects on short-term memory — approved at the highest levels of government — paved the way for TM programs in the Canadian Civil Service. By 1974, this had led to 1% of Ottawa’s civil servants practicing TM.
Jocelyne later spent a decade working closely with Maharishi in Switzerland, contributing to courses such as SCI and Management, which are now part of the MIU curriculum.
Jocelyne holds MAs in Business Administration, Education, and the Science of Creative Intelligence. Beyond her SCI contributions, she has given management training to professionals around the world and lectured at institutions such as the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. She has also taught TM in English and Spanish to foreign diplomats, held leadership roles at Maharishi International University and The Raj AyurVeda Spa, and pursued advanced studies in AyurVeda and Jyotish in India.
In her talk, Jocelyne will share reflections from her years of creating courses with Maharishi, insights into integrating consciousness-based education with management and leadership, and lessons from her extensive work across government, business, and international communities.
Please join us to hear the remarkable story of a woman who showed the Canadian federal government how TM improves the intellect and health of its leaders.
