You can practice the art of being present at any time and from any location. There are no limitations, as previously stated. Still, there's nothing wrong with practicing staying in the moment while sitting. You can practice mindfulness in a sitting position by following the steps in this section.

It's difficult to make your brain stop thinking, therefore meditation isn't about that. Even when you're sleeping, your brain continues to generate thoughts. It's all about not nourishing the thoughts that arise during meditation.

You'll be able to experience the calming advantages of meditation, which include relaxation, stress reduction, a more accurate perspective on your problems, greater creativity, and increased vitality, by honing your skill of "letting go" of thoughts, feelings, and ideas that arise spontaneously.

But it all starts with mastering the skill of meditation sitting.

Take a Seat

It's vital that you choose a comfortable and stable place to sit that will provide you with the necessary balance to practice without interruptions. You have the option of sitting on a park bench, a cushion, or a chair. It makes no difference what you choose. The most important thing is to choose a position that provides a sturdy, stable seat without leaving you hanging or perching.

You can sit for about two minutes to see if the sitting position is going to strain your back. You're ready to move on to the following level if it fully supports your body without putting any strain on any portion of it.

Concentrate on your legs.

The second step is to pay attention to your legs. If you're sitting on the floor with a cushion, cross your legs in front of you in a comfortable position. If you've done any form of seated yoga previously, you should have an easier time with this.

Simply take the position you've been utilizing up to this point. It's best if the bottoms of your feet are in contact with the floor when you're sitting in a chair. Your attention will be affected throughout practice if your legs aren't in a comfortable position.

Straighten your back and shoulders.
