Sitting for more than 20 minutes in meditation started to prove difficult for one of my knees. One day I decided to try a few minutes of yoga before sitting. Of the poses I tried, the one that made the biggest difference was Half Pigeon. Since I like to sit early in the morning, when my body is stiffest, I would do Half Pigeon for seven or eight minutes on each side. Not only did it eliminate my knee pain while sitting afterwards, but I found, as you suggest, that the steady tensions and discomforts of Half Pigeon provided me a mental focus point for meditation, as well. <br><br>So now my only real problem is figuring out where my yoga leaves off and my meditation starts. ;-)greenfroghttp://www.inlimine.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4464468864558318029.post-57853494595677588332009-05-08T12:33:10.000-07:002009-05-08T12:33:10.000-07:00I love Half Pigeon!

I tend to have a tight piriformis muscle, so Half Pigeon feels very good to me. <br><br>It is encouraging that you found yin yoga to help you with pain during sitting in meditation. My meditation practice has been to sit in a chair rather than on the floor, and I have certainly found my back problems to interfere with that (and not just recently, either. For years, as my muscles relaxed during meditation, I would become aware of the lateral bend in my spine and need to readjust). I expect as I continue the practice, yin yoga will help with my own physical difficulties in meditating.<br><br><i>So now my only real problem is figuring out where my yoga leaves off and my meditation starts. ;-)</i><br><br>I'm not sure it really matters!sydneynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4464468864558318029.post-60939672141072131962009-02-13T14:50:28.000-08:002009-02-13T14:50:28.000-08:00[...] Daily Pranayama practice [...][...] Daily Pranayama practice [...]Drishtis · Clear sinuseshttp://drishtis.funknet.net/2009/02/13/clear-sinuses/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4464468864558318029.post-60694221195583848642009-01-13T12:29:58.000-08:002009-01-13T12:29:58.000-08:00Whenever I press my yoga practice deeply into my h...Whenever I press my yoga practice deeply into my hips or into backbends, I find leftover shards of memories and experiences that I thought (somtimes that I hoped) were long gone.
