I have been using the Headspace app, and have meditated now about 10x in the last three weeks. I am trying to get to every weekday morning.
Question - can I meditate while laying in bed? I tend to not fall asleep when I do it.
I've known meditation groups that did this for elderly members. I started in half lotus then just moved to a nice chair. The "traditional" positions exist because the meditative practice comes from a nation/culture where those are ordinary, everyday sitting positions. Just like sitting in a chair is an ordinary, everyday position as an American.
