I m trying to do the isha kriya by sadghuru. 2 times a day aproximatly 20 minutes session.
So far the most challenging has been getting to find a good sitting posture. I feel like i m changing it slightly every sesh and my back/neck/ shoulders are slowly strenghetning.
I m starting to put more strain on my legs and feet to really get a good posture (sole facing up)
It s been like 2 week and I still have trouble with it. Breathing is totally different from when i m meditating sitting down and i feel like i m battling with body pain and not my mind right now wheras it was just my mind when laying down.
I m at the point where i stopped caring about improving and just focusing on the moment and it of course made me feel like I progressed tenfold.
I m still at the very beginning of my journey though i can feel it. Discovering new feelings/tought every time

I recently saw a video of a monk who got in to a kind of really wide squat? can't tell, im not well versed on these things. Basically he said you had to be comfortable with the discomfort, just observe your muscles struggling to keep you outright and all that.

Most likely physical training like in Shaolin, not meditation. Meditating in a squatting position is possible and I've done it when I couldn't sit down due to the muddy ground, but the context makes it seem like it was something else.
