This video demonstrates how to align the head and torso for meditation whether sitting in a chair or cross-legged on a flat surface.

Pointers

  • Sit on the floor on a cushion or blanket, if possible, If using both, place the cushion beneath the blanket.
  • If sitting on the floor is uncomfortable, sit on a firm chair without leaning against the back. Allow the body to feel relaxed.
  • Align the torso, neck, and head in an upright posture (straight line), maintaining the natural curvature of the spine without stiffness.
  • Relax the body fully while remaining attentive to keeping the torso upright and free from slouching.
  • Keep the head straight and relaxed, neither tilted upward nor downward.
