The best posture for meditation is one in which you are simultaneously relaxed and alert. You will notice that when your spine is erect rather than slumped over, there is a special quality of wakefulness or presence that becomes available. When you sit erect, with your sitz bones heavy and your chin slightly tucked in to elongate your spine, a natural alignment occurs; you feel attentive, open, engaged, and bright. The challenge is to combine this aligned posture with total relaxation, dropping all tension in the body, especially in the shoulders, face (including the eyes), and hands.
Getting Started with Meditation
Step into a Gaiam Life Meditation Room for a few minutes to calm your senses and melt away stress. Escape your worries and experience imagery of some of the most relaxing and beautiful natural gifts on Earth, as you listen to soothing nature sounds and music. The floral room surrounds you with a breath of green and a brush of dew against your skin. Lose yourself in lush roses, curved orchids, and the dark faces of sunflowers.

We have NEW meditations available on CDs in our on-line shop. Go there now! Welcome to Learning Meditation. I hesitate to use the word meditation. To me, as well as many others, the word "meditation" conjures up the picture of a bearded man sitting cross-legged in front of an entrance to a cave or high on a mountain top. Climbing the mountain and reaching him is part of the arduous journey toward self-fulfillment, self-improvement.
