Medical practitioners who teach people how to meditate are often asked this question: “Which is the best meditation position?”Meditation is a form of mental training to achieve a psychologically clear and emotionally calm state through relaxation, focus, mindful awareness, and sitting exercises. In ancient Eastern countries such as China and India, it was also called “sitting (crossed-legged) in meditation.” It can be part of a more complex practice such as qigong and yoga. Its purpose is not merely relaxation but the cultivation of mind and body.
