Since meditation is an inward journey the answer is simply to sit comfortably in a place where your attention is not demanded to be outward. Sitting is better than lying down, since meditation has an aim of inner wakefulness. You may wish not to be disturbed and so sitting is a quiet place and turning off the telephone can be preferable, but there is no place without sound. Even quite noisy places can be just fine for meditation but since it is about feeling comfortable there is an element of subjectivity about it.

How to do simple meditation anywhere?

Your First Meditation To begin meditating, find a place where you can sit comfortably and quietly. Then close your eyes and do nothing for a minute or so. Thoughts may come during that time, and that is okay. Then start the audio below and play your mantra** at a whisper. Each time you hear your mantra, say it quietly inside without moving your tongue or lips. After one minute the audio will fade to silence. Then continue saying your mantra quietly inside for four more minutes. If thoughts come during that time, gently return to saying your mantra quietly inside. The audio will tell you when four minutes is over. Follow this instruction for your first meditation only. After your first meditation, follow the instructions in the Daily Practice of Meditation section below.
