I try not to do so if I\u2019m really tired because I\u2019ll probably fall asleep. But if you know you can stay awake, I suggest laying flat on your back with your arms either at your sides or resting on your stomach. I totally recommend putting a pillow or something under your knees for extra support. If I\u2019m listening to a guided meditation, I ignore the whole \u201cfeel your feet grounded on the floor\u201d part and just focus on the weight of my body on the bed (or other surface). As long as you\u2019re able to relax and focus on your breath, laying down while meditating is perfectly okay \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div><div class=\"thefa-test2 thefa-entity-placement\" id=\"thefa-222380515\"><div id=\"thefa-1671554895\"><style>.thefa-test2 {margin-bottom: 24px;}<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"banner-content-position light-viol\">\r\n<div class=\"banner-text max400\">Procrastination is not laziness.

Meditating is not about clearing your mind, but letting be. A resting state still allows the body to find peace and let the moment exist.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Malone Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Of course! You can meditate any way that feels comfortable for you &#8211; lying down, sitting in a chair, sitting on the floor, indoors or outside, eyes open or closed &#8211; whatever feels natural for you and helps to get you into a calm state of mind.<br \/>\nIt&#39;s important to remember that there is no single &quot;correct&quot; way to meditate because your journey and your mind&amp;body are unique.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Kim S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It depends. For me, I get very fatigued and am very busy so the only way I can maintain a regular meditation practice right now is by allowing myself to lie down while meditating and using it as a preamble to my afternoon nap or evening sleep. However, to get the full benefit of training your mind with meditation i think it\u2019s best to sit up to keep your mind alert but present and keep from falling asleep<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Eberhard E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Of course you can meditate lying down! It doesn\u2019t matter how you meditate, as long as your state of mind is in complete zen, you can choose to stand up and meditate too if that works for you!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ir Q.
