MIND YOUR POSTURE !,
By
This review is from: Posture of Meditation (Paperback)
For those of us who are interested in Meditation we have to face the difficult problem of Queting the Mind, which of course brings up the question who is Queting who or what.But we also face the problem of our bodies, it is difficult to stay in a meditative posture for a long period of time, Yoga execices will help of course and I found this book to be very usefull also. You get good information about the body, how to Relax it and use it right without straining, how to ease into the posture you're using and how to breathe correctly, when you finaly get it right it has a feeling of lightness and naturalness to it, it feels RIGHT. It doesn't matter what kind of Meditation tradition you come from or what type of posture you're using this book will help you. It realy is extraordinary how much the mind can change how you feel in you body and how just the right information can have such a dramatic change, So Your body is all in your Mind. This book has information which I have not found in any Yoga books so far, Highly Recomended. See also Rodney Yee, Yoga Journals Practise for Meditation, a good video to get you body in shape for the Lotus Posture.

This review is from: Posture of Meditation (Paperback)
Having spent some years meditating, I have never received any good advice on my posture. I struggled with every conceivable problem and learned much by trial and error. If only I had discovered this book in the beginning.The author teaches how to adopt a proper posture in meditation. He also goes in some depth about the relationship between physical posture and mental clarity, which is certainly something experienced meditators can attest to. The author goes through the fundamental principles of a meditative posture: alignment, relaxation, and resilience. The author then explains through simple exercises how to create such a posture and release one's inner tension. The exercises are very well thought out and may be familiar to students of vipassana or meditative yoga. I would certainly reccomend this book to anyone who is starting meditation, and to anyone who cannot sit comfortably for an entire hour. The author's tips are simple, practical, and well-grounded. Following the advice in this book can only advance one's meditation, no matter the tradition. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

Posture of Meditation review,
By happyfeet - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Posture of Meditation (Paperback)
This book is a gem! It helped me immensely to persevere in beginning sitting practice by describing lucidly and in detail how to work with the physical sensations that a beginner may face and that are ignored in most discussions focusing only on quieting the mind. It gave me a framework and an understanding of how one's body adapts to sitting over time and what changes may occur as the body adjusts. I highly recommend this small volume; it's well worth its low price.
