[Help] Meditation Techniques: Good positions to keep spine straight for beginners?

[AlfrunGrima]

What people never mention is meditation in a rocking chair, if you find a good constant rhythm you can go from being 'empty state' to full trance and everything in between.

Gives you the chance to master states on the edge of sleep.

Yes, agree to that. Those states are worth to master and invest in. (It is in the end all about states and flow and not about technique)

Haven's seen one in a while. If I had place I would definitely have one, cool for relaxing.

From personal experience, at a certain stage of meditation, your back will naturally straighten. It's best not to force it. Gradually increase the duration over time, and avoid pushing yourself to the point of discomfort.

Or try moving back and forth, no chair needed, just some inner madness required

I have tried different techniques. My favorite method is sitting on a coach or bed with a pile of pillows behind. In a comfortable relaxed position. Depending on the angle you can get a very straight up position.
The question is which meditation. If I'm doing my favorite mantra based ones, then this is perfect. I might even add some low volume nature documentary, almost no sounds. It does not really steal focus.
