DAY 115... sit in the lotus position all day
When i took on this book and decided to do a task a day it was with the intent of if possible following all tasks to the letter and atempting to succeed and complete them, However although i gave todays a good shot, it was simply beyond me... as you can see i was to sit in the lotus position all day, my reasons for failure in this task are as follows:-
1.I didnt have the day free so anymore than a couple if hours was simply not possible.
2.I after a 40 min atempt could bare no more lotus positin a mixture of aching and boredom restricted me from doing it any longer. The idea was to sit in the position and relax, ill have to say i dont find sitting in such an awkward position even slightly relaxing. however i did give it a blast.. 40 mins of not being able to move was torture. but i gave it a good go.. allbeit around 23 and a bit hours shorter than what the task required. abaetween you and me i think it was an unreasonable request.

is that Dan?
ReplyDeletethe lotus position isn't supposed to be inherently relaxing. The theory is it is so uncomfortable that eventually your body tunes it out and along with it most of your external stimuli, letting you deepen your internal focus
