Posture

Jujitsu Posture

Posture is the backbone of our meditation practice. How we sit will determine a range of factors of the experience.

Correct posture allows for non-drowsiness, stability, and a level of comfort.

Every body is different and has gone through different years of use, and so finding the right posture for your body is an important step for your meditation practice.

Essentials for good posture

Meditation

Sit with firm determination and resolve. Whether for 1minute, 5 or 60, when you sit, sit with arduous determination. Once we master our posture, we no longer need to worry about the body, and our inner spirit will shine brighter.

Examples of seated postures:

​

Burmese: - This posture has a strong foundation and support for the body. It is quite balanced and also easier for those starting out to move into. A cushion is reccomended as it will support a slight forward tilt of the back, allowing for straightness.

For those who may have hip tightness, this posture may take some time before your knees will touch the ground. Never force a posture into position. Everything should happen naturally.

​

Easy pose: - As the name suggests this seated posture is the simplest and most familiar. With these posture it is recommended to sit on a cushion to help the back move forward into a straight position.

​

Half-Lotus: - A more advanced posture which requires mobility and flexibility of the hips, knees and ankles. If you are flexible then you may try this posture as it provides a strong base for deep meditation. The locking of the knee to the thigh secures a strong base and supports a straight back.
