- How to sit during the meditation? Here I am introducing you to several meditation poses and talk about how you can sit and enjoy your meditation even with injured or stiff legs, hips and back.
I will explain how I introduce people to sit in the Easy Pose on the first class and when your body, legs, back is more supple how you could even try out other meditation poses. Like the Half Lotus Pose, Full Lotus Pose and the Perfect Pose.
If you can`t sit in the meditation pose with bended legs then for you I have some other options.
The video is filmed in my yoga school Sydsveriges Yoga & Meditation Center in Sweden in Malmö - sydsverigeyoga.se/
Most of my classes are in Swedish but I teach even in English. If you wish to have private class over ZOOM with me and would like to get in contact with me then feel free to so: info@sydsverigeyoga.se
If you are curious about my yoga pants I am wearing then visit my Etsy shop YOGANICA: www.etsy.com/shop/Yoganica - they are super comftable and perfect for traditional yoga or to sit in the meditation pose. But many people are using them even just as summer trousers.
Kindly,
Vigyana

You are welcome!
Its really help me to first time meditation
Very good tips 👍😁
thanks for the great video. been meditating ever since February in the "how not to meditate pose" :D I'm only starting to realize just how important proper posture is; and how the spine is the foundation of that. God bless
That is lovely to hear! Thank you.
Wow, it’s totally a sitting life changing! I always feel a slight sore in my back when I sat without a blanket (or anything that can use like this). I’m so grateful! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledges😊
Post-scriptum: Your voice is so soothing. 🌻
Great to hear!
Thank you. My knees hurt before, because I tried to sit exactly, as you showed as bad example, how to not sit. Now I feel much more comfortable and can concentrate on meditation better.
I am happy to hear that! :-)
Thank you
This was really helpful to me. Thanks girl!
You are welcome!
I think you're a good teacher, I will subscribe to your channel.
@@Space-3 Thank you, I feel honoured!
Thank you soo much! I was frustrated that I can’t do a full lotus and thought that was the only way. I chose my pose in under 4 min. I will work my way towards full lotus :).
Never force your legs into full lotus if they are not ready! You may hurt your knees and knees are super important for a yogi :- ) start slow and easy and one day it is possible.

Wow
Thanku
Beautiful and useful video! Where can we buy those orange mats?
Thank you Elisabeth! The matts you see in my video come from Copenhagen: www.yoga.dk/butik/yogamadras-futon (it is gotton inside) and even more luxury version with wool comes here: www.yogameditationshop.com/yoga-mats. If it is too far to order where you live then you could contact the schools and ask where you could buy them. The wool matts last for many, many years, super nice ones!
@@vibrantme5279 Thank you for the links! I live in Italy so it won't be difficult to have it shipped here, I guess :)
Hi.. thank you
Thank u mam blessed me
Thank u
Wow okay, so I'm just really inflexible. I knew that I was inflexible but not that I was SO inflexible😄. (I'm not even able to produce the first position without my feet hurting a lot.)
Ty,,very much.New sub btw.
Thank you for this video. Very helpful.
Has anybody asked about the thick cloth mats you have?
Please let’s us know where to find something similar. All I find on Amazon are the thin one I have.
Thank you
Thank You!
Yes I have got the question about the matts before :-)
If you live in EU you can order them: yogameditationshop.com/sv/collections/yoga-mats
If you live in US you can order them: www.samadhicushions.com/Futon-Yoga-Mat-s/26.htm
If these countries are too far from you to order then just google "Futon Yoga Mat" or "Wool Yoga Mat" and see what comes up near where you live.
They seem expensive but you can have them for many years, so you can see that as an investment. Regards, Vigyana
Thank you!
Been sitting on the floor for years, and still a bit stiff in the hips. My yoga block was just starting to feel....too hard under the hips. Ordered a zabuton and zafu for support, and those didn't work for me at all!
Your suggestion of a rolled up blanket works perfectly.
Yes exactly, rolled up blanket is best in my opinion too! So good you made this simple discovery :-)
❤
Great name
Thank you this helped so much I jeee thought about the little tweaks Iv really took my meditation to a personal new level with this, for me just using something under my bum and pullling me leg in tight first and then pulling the other foot into the gap like she showed i feel like I could sit here for hours ha peace every one
Good stuff. Any stretches that is recommended to be able to sit in perfect posture?
Thank you! You could try these small exercises that will improve your whole body flexibility and you will be able to sit much better in the meditation pose. / Vigyana

I haven't been able to find a yoga mat like yours that rolls, do you have a recommendation?
Yes they are not the easiet to find. Google "Futon Yoga Mat" and see what comes up in your country. I order them from Sweden: yogameditationshop.com/sv/collections/yoga-mats/products/yoga-mat-wool
They seem expensive but they last for many, many years!

Thank you for this video. I’ve come to realise that my posture was so wrong while meditating. I used to sit on a chair to avoid ankle pain. Not anymore.
That is great to hear!
beautiful girl 🌹
Thanks for help 🙏
Could you tell me where to find a thick mat like your orange one? Many thanks
Hi Adam, I have ordered them from Sweden and Denmark, you can look up these website and contact them if they can send it to where you live. They seem expensive but they last for many, many years, so they are worth it.
www.yoga.dk/butik/yogamadras-futon/

Otherwise google "thick yoga matts" and you may find something closer where you live! / Vigyana
I love your orange mats very much. Can you please share with me the link to buy it? Thanks.

@@vibrantme5279 thank you. I am in the UK
@@Vuthuyuyen You can search for "Futon Yoga Mattress" maybe you will find something in UK!
Got some tips how to become more flexible, stretch poses maybe, my knees and hips are stiff...? Even easiest sitting pose was hard for me, i usually sit cross legged on cushion... but i want to try this lotus easy pose just need a little more flex. Thanks for the video.
subbed
Superb video and very well explained. What would be the options for a obese or a person with big stomach.
Thank you for your nice comment!
If it is difficulte to sit in the meditation pose then a chair would be the next choice. Because this video does not say that if you can`t sit in the meditation pose then you can`t meditate. Chair is totally fine and as long as you can keep your back as upright as possible then you can still have a good meditation. I would reccomend to just to test and try different sitting positions and see whats works for you best!
@@vibrantme5279 Thank you. Appreciate your reply/suggestion. Will try these out...🙏🙏🙏
Where do I get such a mattress?
Thank you so much🙏🏾
Where do you get those orange mats?
They are called "Futon Yoga Mat" and can be in any colour, I have bought them from here in Denmark: www.yoga.dk/butik/yogamadras-futon/
If you live far from Denmark then google on Thick Cotton Yoga Mat or like I wrote above and see if you find anything similar close where you live. Kindly, Vigyana
Hello! Wonderful video! Do you know what is the name in sanskrit of the first meditation pose you showed? I thought the first one was called sukhasana but when I search it it shows the classic "cross-legged" position. I saw theu call it "Burmese pose" but I don't know if it has a sanskrit name.
Hi TemplarClip!
You are right, the first pose is called Sukhasana, in English Easy pose. This pose has many names, all depends who is teaching you. Some call it Tailor pose, Crossed legged position (which I have never understood why because they are not comfortable for the meditation). Easiest way to sit here is to have a cushion under your buttocks and have your feet front of each other. You lean slightly forward on the cushion and if the knees do not come down the floor you place some blankets under to support your legs. / Vigyana
@@vibrantme5279 Thanks for your answer!
