How to Get Out of Bed After Sleeping?

[Веретенников Сергей]

We do this every day. In fact, we get up once and go to bed once. And that’s the minimum!
Some people get up twice to go to the bathroom, drink some water...

It’s a ritual. And it’s often a one-sided ritual. I’ll explain why I said “one-sided” below, because it’s LITERALLY so.

Now imagine that every day you do the same thing several times, using only one side of your body.

For example, someone’s bed may be positioned so that they get up to the right or to the left...

Continued:

I assure you that this small daily ritual, when performed incorrectly, can have a very strong effect on us over the years. And it’s not only about the spine and its curvature. Getting up incorrectly in this way affects the brain and psyche, especially the hemispheres. It affects a person’s energy. They literally become one-sided.

I was looking for a picture to show you roughly how it should be done. To my surprise, when I searched for how to get out of bed, I found completely incorrect recommendations.

THIS IS INCORRECT:

And once again—this is incorrect.

But the internet is currently full of pictures showing exactly this!

Please take to heart what I have written to you in this article.

That is exactly how I was getting up incorrectly. Now I’ve decided to try all the methods you mentioned, OM Shanti. I liked sliding toward the foot of the bed the most. There is indeed so much ignorance in us—live and learn. Thank you, OM Shanti.

I get up more or less as recommended, except that I don’t sit cross-legged; instead, I stretch my torso toward my feet, find my balance, and sit for a minute or longer. Then I turn around and may sit for a little while longer before getting up. I’ve noticed that this is better for my body than turning immediately toward the edge of the bed as I used to. I think my body itself suggested what was best). Thank you, Teacher!

I tried it today and found my own position: roll onto my stomach and, moving along with my hands, sit back on my heels and stay that way for a little while. I really liked it!

I’ve been getting up more or less as recommended for several months already. Circumstances forced me to. Since I’m renovating the house, there was nowhere to put the coffee tables, so they ended up beside the right side of my two-meter-long sleeping area, while there was a wall on the left and behind me. I usually don’t sit up, though—I jump up with both feet forward and run off to braid my hair.

I’m trying it too; I chose the option of rolling onto my stomach.
I sat on my heels for about a minute, then turned 90 degrees,
assuming a cross-legged position, and sat like that for a little while longer...
My body is delighted and amazed, squealing.
Thank you, OM Shanti!

I remembered that OM Shanti also wrote about getting up in the esoteric recommendations on the site!

Wow, I’m the last person to have left a message here—three and a half years ago.

Yesterday I was browsing the open club and left several tabs open to read.

Веретенников Сергей , could you comment on “yoga” in bed, or, more accurately, “stretching”? I seem to remember that you once wrote about how a person was healed by stretching pleasurably in bed in the mornings. I do this quite often, stretching to one side and then the other. If I stretch in both directions and follow wherever my body asks me to, is that a good movement after waking up?

I also massage my ears as recommended, simply kneading them with my fingers for a short while.
