Hello, everyone!

I'm new to PR and I have a question or two for more experienced PReaders. The self-study course teaches that during PR we should sit upright and have a book positioned at a 45 degree angle to the table or a 90 degree angle to our eyes. In one post in this forum I also noticed that someone said that this correct position helps achieve the accelerated state of mind easier. But here is the trick: When you work with smaller and lighter books you can easily put them in correct position but I would like to try the PR system with some college material and this books are realy heavy and positioning them at 45 degree angle to the table brings only problems like they tend to slip and the turning of pages is heavier and this small distractions tend to break my concentration. Should I simply forget the right position and go with whatever makes me more comfortable?
I invite anyone that might find this post interesting to join in and give me and all others some advice on how he/she overcomes such small problems. Sorry for some bad english - I'm still working on it.

I found propping my book up on a closed and empty (2 inch spine) arch lever file gave it the most comfortable angle for me. Another option is to rest the top edge on one or 2 other books.
