I am not nimble enough to cross my legs in a lotus position. The touching of the feet grounds me for some reason. I tried lying down, but that makes me sleepy. I think the goal is being comfortable, with room to breathe (so no slouching) &#8211; but alert. Everyone has to define that position for him&#x2F;herself.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Paola Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">The best position to meditate in is one where you are the most comfortable, but not going<br \/>\n to sleep. Try not to cross anything as to make your body vunerable enough to let your thoughts out. Very freeing.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Nanna Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Any position you feel most comfortable in. From experience, I find that laying down on your back or sitting straight up with your back against a wall with either your legs crossed or flat in front of you is best. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Isab U Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I like to start with like an actual hip opener, butterfly or straddle or something, then go into a comfortable seat cross legged or with my knees up and feet in front of me. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Randall E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I know you\u2019re supposed to do it back straight, but my back usually can\u2019t handle that. I like to be sitting cross legged on the floor with my back against something if need be. A quiet environment (or headphones in) is a must have for me. I\u2019m hoping as I get more experience, I won\u2019t need it as much!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Eleanor P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">For deep meditation perhaps sitting or lying down but generally anywhere will do! Some of my favorites: standing on a paddle board, biking, kayaking, windsurfing, walking, running, skiing, driving (every stop light!) the dentists chair, the doctors waiting room sitting in a chair&#8230;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Albin X.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Personally I usually do mediations like this\ud83e\uddd8\ud83c\udffc\u200d\u2640\ufe0f<br \/>\nNot that perfect tho, but I\u2019m trying&#8230;<br \/>\nP.s. my tongue is flipped over also \ud83e\udd37\ud83c\udffc\u200d\u2640\ufe0f<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jonas E.
