I recently had knee surgery and need to keep my leg elevated for the next few weeks. During this recovery period, I'm finding meditation to be really helpful for managing pain and staying positive. However, it's challenging to get comfortable and maintain good posture with my leg propped up.
I'm wondering if anyone has experience meditating while recovering from an injury or surgery? What positions or techniques helped you meditate effectively despite physical limitations? Any tips for staying focused when dealing with discomfort?
I'd appreciate any advice on how to keep up a consistent practice during this healing process. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
Try guided body scan meditations while lying down with your leg elevated. Focus on breath awareness and visualizations to distract from discomfort. Use pillows for support and comfort. Remember, meditation doesn't require perfect posture—it's about cultivating mindfulness in any position.
