Hi all, how do you manage to sit for long periods of time ?

I’m having trouble staying still after 25/30mn. After that my right leg gets so numb, I’ve got to move it every once in a while. I’m not sure it really is an issue, but even if I try ti stay focused on my meditation while moving, it’s always a distraction. Fyi : I sit crossed legs with my butt on a cushion.

Thanks !

    It does get better over time. I find using a real good cushion helps a lot, any semi hard surface like carpet gets real uncomfortable after a while.

    I have a japanese futon which remains quite comfortable

      Mu cushion is one filled with grain (it’s confortable but a little small I reckon), which is laying on a carpet, I’ll look into that (maybe add a yoga mat ?). Hopefully I’ll get used to it. thanks
