I've experienced focus problems for just seconds at a time, so I don't know if
it is related to TM. No memory loss that I'm aware of. Concentration problems
-- sometimes. But it seems to depend on what I'm trying to concentrate on. I
can get caught up in a good book for hours, but my mind strays sometimes
during conversations or speeches and it is sometimes hard to focus mentally on
something very detailed or technical. So again, I don't think it is TM related
for me, not to say TM couldn't have that effect in others. Don't know if that
has been much help, but that's my experience. :-)
