7 Points of Meditation Posture: 

You can follow the 7 points of meditation posture to get into a comfortable and effective meditation position that will help you achieve a deeper state of mindfulness. 

First, check your legs. Do this by sitting comfortably with your spine straight. It is very important that you find a position that is comfortable for you. You can sit on the ground with pillows or meditation cushions under you. You can sit in either the lotus position, or with your legs crossed, or in a Burmese position with your legs crossed, but not on top of each other. You can even stretch your legs out in front of you. If you are not comfortable on the ground, you can sit in a chair or a sofa. The most important thing is to keep your spine erect. If you have back problems, you can lean back against a wall or the back of a chair. Whatever position you assume, make sure it’s active and not passive. In other words, make sure you’re not resting in your position as that can increase your chances of falling asleep. 

Second, check your arms and hands. Depending on the type of meditation you are doing, you can choose from any variety of meditation hand positions. For the purposes of this meditation, rest your hands on your knees or thighs, palms facing up and relax your fingers. 

Third, check your back. Elongate and straighten your spine, but don’t tense up. 

Fourth, check your shoulders. Raise your shoulders up towards your ears and then roll them back so that your shoulder blades move downwards. This will open up your heart and improve your breathing. 

Fifth, check your neck and head. Keep your neck tall, but tilt your head slightly down so that your chin is slightly tucked in. 

Sixth, check your jaw, mouth, and tongue. Relax the muscles of your face. Allow your teeth to slightly part, so that you’re not biting down. You can keep your mouth closed, or just lightly open so that air can escape. Keep your tongue in a neutral position or rest the tip of your tongue behind your upper teeth, where they meet the gums. 

Seventh, check your gaze. You can either close your eyes, or rest your gaze two to four feet in front of you in an unfocussed manner. For those who tend to fall asleep during meditation, an open-eye practice may prove more effective, but some prefer a closed-eye approach which they find improves their ability to focus inward and go deeper into their meditation. As you develop your meditation practice, you will know which gaze works best for you. Just be sure to decide on a gaze before starting your meditation so that you’re not going back and forth during the session.

Although difficult, remaining optimistic and positive during times of crisis is extremely important. That is not to say that you should be unrealistic or let go of your pragmatism. Being prepared, staying informed and aware of what is happening globally, and keeping an eye on how your community is handling the spread of the virus, is, of course, also critical. But giving into despair, imagining apocalyptic scenarios, and thinking we’re all doomed is certainly not going to help you or those around you. Having faith in your own, and humanity’s, resilience and strength, incorporating humor into your day, practicing mindfulness, and including positivity routines can help you get through this pandemic and also improve your immune system.

In this podcast, we look at the importance of staying optimistic and its impact on your overall health. We also go over 10 things you can do -starting today - to manage your stress levels, and improve your positive outlook during these difficult pandemic times.

There are unquestionable limitations placed on us by social distancing due to the Coronavirus pandemic right now, and we're likely to suffer negative consequences as a result of our isolation. But we have a choice to shift our mindset and, at least occasionally, look at this situation as an opportunity for solitude. To reconnect with our inner self, feel empowered by the strength within us, and find calmness and peace. It's all a matter of differentiating our state from one of loneliness to one of solitude. In this podcast, The Healing Salon's founder, Golareh talks about how you can shift your perspective and find ways to actually benefit from your social isolation.
