  After two nights on the floor, I tossed out my bed and will determine what I need over time. Likely tatami w/ 3" futon. Since my kitty likes to sleep close to me, I will buy a queen size instead of twin size.

  I would probably go crazy because I just came back from schizophrenia after forcing myself to be back to the matrix. I went too deep into my mind that I saw reality as fluid and there was no anchor like I was just in a dream and it feels like I died. Maybe it only works for ordinary people and not for people who are by nature self-reflective.

  This is something i used to do for a night if i was having backaches and couldn't get comfortable on a bed and it would feel much better the next day. I have been doing it now every night for a couple weeks and haven't had any back pain at all and the best part is i used to notice when i shower that my chest/ribcage was at a crooked angle from my tummy, and they are now aligned straight. I thought this was scoliosis and i had no control over without seeing a doctor. Biggest issue for me is I'm mostly a side sleeper and very skinny so i do wake up with sore hips sometimes.

  Had a long running lower back injury, herniated disc, realised my soft mattress was aggravating it hugely. I'm sleeping on a yoga mat with a quilt now and it's the only thing that keeps the pain manageable. I'm dreaming a lot more, for longer. There is something very grounding about it. It's like those weighted blankets for autistic people, except instead of the blanket weighing on me, it's my own weight pushing me into the hard floor. It is immensely relaxing, psychologically. I really do prefer to sleep on the floor now.

  Hi! Thank you so much for your comment and for sharing your story. Actually is kind of hard sharing it because my mum gifted it to me and she bought it in a shop in Lugano, Switzerland. Mattress you mean yoga mat or mattress to sleep on? Currently I am transitioning back to a floor tatami, the mattress I’m using is just a random one I’ve found in this apartment. Im sure tho, any mattress made of only natural fibers is the best for you. Unfortunately those come with a big price, and a tatami is not that much expensive considering it last a while! Hope it helps!!

  My dad, born in 1922, grew up on a farm and always said the most comfortable sleep he ever got was sleeping on the front porch floor in the summertime. Although he and my mom slept in a bed with a mattress, he often laid on the floor to nap and “rest his back.” I find lying on the floor restful as well.

  So glad Vipassana helped you so much.....& so glad you're saying so in this forum where one finds quite a few negative stories about Vipassana that have apparently been written by individuals who did not understand the workings of Dhamma- the Law of Nature within themselves. Vipassana enabled me to extricate myself from a number of unhealthy habits, including around eighteen years of serious addictions to various kinds of substances that included hard drugs which completely ruined my health, both physical & mental. Continued practice has also helped me deal with the causative factors such as the intense trauma I had to endure for most of my life. May many more get liberated from the bondages that keep us shackled & prevent us from enjoying a peaceful, joyful life!!! 🙏🤍🙏

  Forcing people to meditate that long is brainwashing, this makes Vipassana a cult. if you are desperate, go for it, even better is to stay grounded and enjoy ( shorter ) mediation retreats where you can socialize with others and have a healthy exchange of ideas and philosophies accompanied by men and women.

• 
  @RobertoVolta4 ай бұрын

  Hi Ron, I don't disagree with you in the fact of joining shorter retreats, but you are getting wrong the point of the Vipassana retreat. First, no one is forcing you to go, this already doesn't make it a cult. Second, it's a commitment, 10 days in silence meditating really force you to go within, all you see is the parts of yourself, there's no cult leader, but you and what's within you. It's kind of wrong saying that it's not good for you as this is exactly what we need as society, which is quieting the mind and going within. If you join a shorter retreat where you exchange philosophies it's just a different thing, focus and point. You can also leave whenever you want. Maybe I would invite you to watch the video again because it seems like you missed the point.

  I grew up sleeping on the floor on something made of a plant fiber we called petate. So, now as an adult with several back issues, I have started doing it again on a yoga mat. It was hard at the beginning, specially because I am skinny and my hip bones pressure was bad. Like you I started slowly and now I am again tolerating and even enjoying like when I was a child and no having a bed like most people was not a concern.

  I started to sleep on the floor about 1-2 weeks ago, and the first night I slept on the floor I didn't even have a bad night. I woke up maybe once or twice, but most of the night I was fully asleep. A week later, it feels amazing! I feel better in the morning, and I get MUCH better sleep at night. My other family members think I'm crazy lol, but it is amazing! I actually had some sleep troubles before I started to sleep on the floor, as I was sleeping I just wasn't getting into a deep sleep, and woke up very tired in the mornings. Now I feel refreshed in the mornings! Praise the Lord for using these KZread videos to show me to sleep on the floor to fix my problem!! Take care everybody!!!

  Thanks for the video. I'm curious if it comes down to body type if this works or not. Personally I've tested it out a few nights and I like it. I use a carpet + double yoga mat and that's fine. My body is a bit more curved than yours and as such I find it hard to lay in an optimal way and I'm curious if that's where body type makes a big difference. I'm also still searching for a good pillow solution as my normal pillow is too low to make this work.

  I appreciate the yoga perspective. I'm a man in my 50s whose been biking and doing yoga for 30 years. My knees had gone creaky, and I started using a pedal-assist bike and two stacked mats. Decided to stop biking (one reason, it's not good for posture) for a while and see what effects more walking would have. At the same time I noticed a bunion developing and in doing research for treatment stumbled upon barefoot shoes. I bought a pair and it was transformative. Despite walking 10k/day on concrete and asphalt, I had no more knee pain, and my walking posture is as good as my best tadasana. One thing that's great about yoga is that it's an activity one can improve at no matter one's age. I'm excited about what wearing barefoot shoes will do for my practice.
