Dear Beth, this is usual in the beginning times of doing TM, it happened to me also ! The finer stages of thought are so charming and we want to enjoy it unending. Sometimes one might be forgetting about time altogether. Have in mind before you start meditation that you want to meditate for 20 minutes. Little by little your brain will be adjusted to this and after a short while you will look at your watch at about 18 minutes or so. Then simply follow your teachers instructions of how to slowly come out of your meditation. I'm happy that your meditations leaves you relaxed and happy !
