Recently started. 3 weeks ago or so. I mostly lay down in my bed to be honest. The way you sit is not important here. Get comfortable and make it a habit. Better to be done “sub optimal” than not at all.
I do both guided and just by myself. Tried like 4 different apps, Balance’s guided meditations resonated best with me and is free for a year.
But honestly, it’s not about the right app, the right position and whatnot. Just get started. I do 10-15 minutes before bed every day. Most days I feel like doing more, and that’s fine, I do. But my crucial habit one is always right before bed.
