How and Where to Meditate, a Strategy for a Healthier Life

First, the posture. The widespread image of a yogi sitting cross-legged in samadhi might be out of reach for most of us and also not really necessary to imitate. If you can sit on a floor, that might be very useful as you don't need much and you can practice anywhere, anytime. But if you cant, don't despair. Most of us will need something to sit on, even if it is a yoga block, a big dictionary, a cushion, a folded blanket or a sweater. You can be as innovative as you want to. Some of us might have bought or made themselves cushions filled with buckwheat hulls, for instance. There are limitless possibilities to explore and play with, but I would suggest before you establish a regular sitting practice and discover what you really need, leave that for later. For now, utilise whatever you see around you.

Better balance for life, Banish the Fear of Falling

The elderly.
We are all here because of them, our parents, our grandparents. We owe them everything.
This new situation puts them at the highest risk of getting infected with the virus. They are isolated. They might have many different health concerns, and also some might be facing anxiety, fear, depression.
Their physical functions might be deteriorating because of lack of activities, or simply because they age.
As we all age, we lose balance first and then fear of falling and suffering a severe, oftentimes life-threatening injury prevent them from moving a lot even when in limited space.
