So in this case choose the posture for Meditation and be comfortable in the discomfort for 2h 30min!!!<br \/>\nThe first few days you have to give yourself permission to find your position and take control of your place. This is an important part of being patient with yourself.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s funny because you can observe other people the tricks we are capable of doing to feel &#8220;comfortable&#8221; putting about 4-4 cushions on each knee, the meditation bench, just in case 2 different ones in case one doesn&#8217;t fit you have the other &#8230;it&#8217;s fun.<\/p>\n<p>In my case I chose something minimalist, I put a futon. To elevate my hips and two small cushions to put under my knees.<br \/>\nThus until finding comfort in discomfort. And it is achieved by simply following the exact steps. With willpower, discipline and perseverance.<br \/>\nIt is important to be kind to yourself at all times, treating yourself with Love, it is essential.<\/p>\n<p>After finishing the first meditation from 4:30 to 6:00 a.m.<\/p>\n<p>You are going to have breakfast, the food is very good, perfect to have enough energy that your inner engineering needs.<\/p>\n<p>Then at 8:00 you meditate again until 11:00 a.m.<\/p>\n<p>And then you go to eat, all the food is vegan.<\/p>\n<p>After eating until 1:00 p.m. you can take a walk, rest or continue meditating.<\/p>\n<p>And meditate again from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>At 5:00 p.m. you have tea and a fruit and at 6:00 p.m. you meditate again until 7:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>Good!!!!! Because at 7:00 p.m. there is a talk by Goenka, which is the hour of respite, where you become aware, where you acquire the knowledge to understand what happens to you during meditation.<\/p>\n<p>And at 8:00 p.m. you do the last meditation of the day until 9:00 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>And then you go to sleep because you&#8217;re exhausted.<\/p>\n<h4>In my experience, every day I had lucid dreams and I got up again at 4:00 a.m. to go to the shower and be ready for the experience of the new day.<\/h4>\n<h2>A very useful experience to deal with your daily life.<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2492 size-edema-thumb-masonry-big\" title=\"Vipassana\" src=\"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/meditacion-vipassana-jesica-oteruelo2-760x351.jpg\" alt=\"meditaci\u00f3n vipassana lavanda zen massage 2\" width=\"760\" height=\"351\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>vipassana meditation,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2493,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2989","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2989","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2989"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2989\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2493"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2989"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2989"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/test.webgrow.pro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2989"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
