Joy Angevin Balmer completed her Masters in Education in 1984 from Maharishi University of Management which seemed at the time to be the culmination of her spiritual journey. MUM incorporates the principals of consciousness based education and Transcendental Meditation. This augmented Joy’s deep belief that education should bring the individual to their highest potential in all areas including general happiness, love, compassion, intuition, mental potency, emotional health, and finances. In 1990 Joy and a colleague created the Fairfield Home School Assistance Program and worked for over 30 years with all levels of students, K- University, and in all subject areas.
