Lying on the bed doesn't feel very good for my back. I also don't like cross-legged positions, crushing my feet like meatballs.
:?: :?: :?:
I think the best position to meditate is sitting in a chair suitable for meditation. What do you think?

Of course it is subjective. I have read that improper postures for the spine can damage it.

A straight spine is the main requirement. Other details are secondary.
Yes, I know. Even in the case of the chair, the spine needs the right support. The abdominal and back muscles also give support to the spine.
In the case of the bed, mine is too soft. Also for sleeping it is recommended that it is not too hard but also not too soft. As for meditating lying on the bed, the spine is not a very straight structure, it has curvatures and therefore you need to put the right support on the cervical vertebrae and the lumbar ones to keep it in the natural shape and position.

In my view support items are not required as long as one has healthy core and is able to sit straight.
Having slight curvature is normal for the spine so laying in the bed does not require extra items.
Having spine related health issues is another matter, and has to be taken in consideration on case by case basis.

I have no health problems in my spine. The problem is my bed, it is not quality, neither the mattress nor the bed frame. I have to buy another one.

Getting a foam mattress topper may be a cheaper fix to improving comfort, depending on the situation.

Can i ask you a question, i do want to state right away that i mean no ill intent!
So you come on here and ask a question, all good of course. The thing i don't get is that you already know everything that has been recommended to you. Aquarius gives you his opinion but you already know this, same with Henu the Great. Did you come here for validation (If its the case that's no problem), or were you expecting another answer?
I was just wondering that's all.

The greatest blessing one can receive is their own, Thoroughly believe in thyself, do this and your soul will be your guiding star.
Hail Zeus, Hail Astarte, May you shine true for eternity!

As Henu The Great said, it's true I don't tend to use backrests when sitting. I mind my posture and seat backrests seem to curve my spine where it's upright with natural curves without the back rest messing my posture up.
But for meditation it's necessary to relax and be supported. So I have a sofa chair that I sit upright in. Use same sofa chair for vibrations and meditations.
I do like laying on my back on the floor as well. But it just feels better and my mind works better sitting.
I have two pillows from my bed I put on the arm rests and I cross my legs wide with knees resting on the armrests.
I cover the sofa chair with a sheet to keep it clean. It's second hand. An old man sofa chair but good quality. All padded and firm.
The only thing in my mind is to not cross only ankles when meditating.
Early on my journey to find Satan and years ago as a teen. I went to a Spiritualist Church.
And we were told not to cross our legs when meditating because it cuts off the energy flow.
I remember always having a foot nudge my crossed ankles apart.
I now consider it a yoga pose to have crossed legs. So I can have crossed legs because of Yoga.
But I could never meditate with only my ankles crossed because I have that conditioning now that crossing ankles cuts off the energy flow.

Great idea the sofa chair.
As for the cross-legged positions, I tried using the simple one and found it annoying...one foot on top of the other exerted pressure and I found it a bit uncomfortable for the blood vessels and nerves.
Simple cross-legged position.
The professional yoga positions are certainly better but they are difficult to do especially at the beginning. In an Asana book I read that you get used to them with time.
Padmasana, the lotus position.

It's not wrong, also HPS Pythia stated that sitting crossed leg cuts off the circulation.

Oh how my knees and ankles stiffen and seize up. I do move about some and sit with differing leg positions for the circulation.
But we're not talking about material circulation here. It's energy flow being cut off by crossing ankles.
I don't have it for crossed legs because of Yoga and Yoga meditative poses.
Just in my mind crossing ankles is like making a knot there to hinder the energy flow.
Energetically speaking not physically.

My favourite meditation posture is Siddhasana. Padmasana requires more flexibility in the legs.

In reality, this energy block is useful. In Yoga, it is said that the blocking of energy by the crossed legs acts as a Bandha so as not to disperse energy and bring it to the head.
