Lotus

SquaresandCubes · 08-15-06, 17:45

Ok so Ive been meditating for quite some time now and I was wondering how many of you guys out there who do meditate actually use the lotus position? I have been interested in this position as I feel it would free my legs of any movement/uncomfort. The only problem is that I am having a difficult time moving into this position. I have been doing rigerous stretching and bending to get myself to the point that I am at now.

Does anyone have any suggestions on particular stretches I can do in order to obtain this position? And does anyone feel that it is important to use this position and why?

Thanks squares

Wish i could help you out ...

Yoga is all i can say...

I stick with half lotus because of the same problem as you.

Slowly move towards full, and eventually you will stretch.. remember it is the journey not the destination.
