Meditation might look like just a morning routine for beginners, but in truth, it’s much more than that. It’s not just something you do — it’s a state of being.
"The goal is not to do meditation, but to live in meditation”
“Meditation is not evasion; it is a serene encounter with reality.”
What to Wear During Meditation
Best Choice:
✅ Loose-fitting clothes that don’t restrict your movement.
✅ Organic cotton, linen, or bamboo fabric are great options because they are natural, breathable, and soft on the skin.
✅ If you’re meditating outdoors, consider layering so you stay warm without feeling too bundled up.
Try to Avoid:
🚫 Synthetic fabrics like polyester or nylon. While they may feel fine, they can break down over time into nano particles. When you’re doing deep breathing exercises, there’s a very small chance you might inhale those particles — and even though the risk is low, it’s better to avoid it if possible.
🚫 Tight or rigid clothes that might distract you or make it hard to sit still for long.
Where to Meditate
Just as important as what you wear is where you meditate. A good environment can help you go deeper into stillness and awareness.
Choose a Spot with:
- Good airflow and fresh oxygen – Nature is best! A garden, balcony, terrace, or under a tree can be ideal.
- Quiet surroundings – A peaceful environment helps the mind settle down more easily.
- Consistency – Try to meditate in the same place and at the same time every day. This helps your body and mind build a habit and enter meditation more naturally.
Avoid Meditating on Your Bed
If you’re having sex on your bed, or even just using it for sleep and relaxation, it’s better not to meditate there. The bed carries energies and associations that can interfere with your meditation practice. It’s harder to stay alert and focused in a space linked to sleep or intimacy. So, try to avoid doing meditation on your bed or in the bedroom if possible. Create a fresh, clean space where your mind naturally shifts into stillness.
“When you sit quietly, you discover yourself as the stillness behind the noise.”
Conclusion
Meditation is not about perfect clothes or the perfect place — it’s about inner stillness. But when your external environment supports you, it becomes easier to begin the journey. So wear what feels soft and free, find a peaceful spot, and start sitting. Over time, you’ll discover that meditation isn’t just a morning practice — it’s a way of living with awareness, peace, and presence.
“You should sit in meditation for 20 minutes a day, unless you’re too busy — then you should sit for an hour.”
