There are many positions that you can adopt for meditation. They range form the yogic lotus position to the shavasana position. You can use almost any comfortable position in which you can still your body and your mind. Two of the most commonly used postures are the half lotus and shavasana.

This is a simple cross-legged position, affording  balance and stability, which you can use for meditating. 1. Sit on the floor with your knees bent and the soles of your feet together. Gently press your knees toward the floor and then release them. 2. Holding on to your ankles, press forward, trying to get your face as close to your feet as possible. Return to the upright sitting position. 3. Now go into half lotus itself. Sit on the floor with both legs out-streched. Bend the left leg, bringing the left foot beneath the right thigh. Bend the right leg and bring your right foot on top of your left thigh. Both knees should be touching the floor and your back should be straight.

1. Lie flat on the floor with your legs apart and relaxed, and your arms relaxed at the sides of your body. 2. Keep your body relaxed and still without becoming rigid with tension. If you start feeling tense, stop immediately and try again later. Start off by trying to stay still for three minutes, and then gradually extend the time as you improve with practice.
