Transcendental meditation routine
Clint Eastwood has practiced Transcendental Meditation (TM) since the 1970s, a technique involving silently repeating a mantra to achieve a state of “restful awareness.” He meditates twice daily, including on film sets, which helps reduce stress and improve focus. Studies show TM can lower anxiety, enhance sleep quality, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. For Eastwood, this practice is a cornerstone, especially in the high-pressure environment of Hollywood.
The habit, maintained for over five decades, is described as a powerful tool for mental balance. Despite playing tough-guy roles like the iconic Harry Callahan, Eastwood finds in meditation a counterpoint to his public image.
