I try not to fuss about it, so allowing myself even 5 minutes of mindful breathing is alot helpful!Ā
Ooh and I like listening to chants, flute music, rain sounds etc while engaging in some "close my eyes and do mindful listening" hehe. I find that quite peaceful!
How about you?šĀ

Thank you, my mysterious friend, for such a significant post!
Letās celebrate meditation, wooohooo!
Answering your questions, I meditate sitting on a cushion on the floor and focusing on my breath.
I have been meditating for many years, and it has become something good in itself, beyond its healing effects. I need to be in that wonderful state every day, at least for a while. My view of things has been deeply influenced by meditation.
This is my setup for meditating: a zafu, a zabuton, and some cardboard sheets I use to make an enclosure, a humble āmeditation hallā that hides the distracting clutter behind.
I share two YT videos I have found very useful (particularly the first one) to gradually learn to take the full lotus posture, which in my experience is the most stable for meditation:
