...when meditating? I understand that it's better for your posture to keep your back straight but I have a curved spine and it's almost impossible for me to sit up straight, especially for long periods of time. But what I never understood is WHY is it Compulsory to have your back straight during meditation? Do you not get the results you want if your back is not straight?
 
So you don't fall in the direction of the lean.
Or fall asleep.

helps your spine but the best thing to do is PRAY TO JESUS FOR SOME GUIDANCE WHEN repenting.
