Sitting Comfortably is a guide to setting up your long-term healthy and enjoyable meditation practice and explores the physical issues that may arise while sitting, from painful knees to tight hamstrings.
Hannah's composed and decorative illustrations take the reader on a journey as Swami Saradananda shows how yoga preparation, breathing and adapting postures can help to strengthen the body to be able to maintain a sitting meditation.
The book is broken down into 8 chapters, including: Overcoming obstacles to meditation; The art of sitting for meditation; Stretches/yoga poses that can help you sit comfortably; Breathing exercises (pranayama); Diet and lifestyle; Off your cushion and into the world. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this is the ultimate guide to preparing to meditate.
