MEDITATION BREAKTHROUGH!!!

Howdy Ya'll

 

I dont frequently post but I do try to read most of what is posted.

Anyways, I was reading a link somone posted to a yoga webiste about various postures. I sit on a coushin on the floor everyday for two hours and meditate (www.dhamma.org). When I began meditation and qigong my instructor (http://www.shengzhen.org/) said to keep the left (yang) leg on top of the right (I use the 1/2 lotus posture). So, the yoga website said to switch wich leg is on top b/c it will pull your hips outta alignment if you dont. Guess what, its helped realign my whole posture!! Great stuff. Its all about balance.

 

Now the left leg is on top in the morning and the right in the evening. Perhaps you may find this useful.

 

Cheers,

Turbo

Hi Turbo,

 

That sounds very logical to me. Good you found that info!

Why did you choose to do it this way?

[Inedible]

Why not increase flexibility and try to use the full lotus more of the time?

OP should be able to meditate without a coushion by now, while still maintaining the same altitude off the ground provided by the sitting aid
