Doing the active exercises is fine in a sitting or lying position. I do believe that the standing position is best. Your thoughts and signals for moving setup energy patterns. These movements and mental focus are designed to work together for best health results.
Don't under estimate the value of good. You are the best judge of what is right for you. This is not a race, so if you feel a slower progression is right for you I would suggest you follow your guidance. If that means sitting until you feel ready, until you've seen enough improvement, until you gained enough confidence, then that's what you should do.
I currently have a knee injury, and I can tell you the moment I start saying the password the sensation of pain just magnifies like crazy. I know that Master Lin would say that my energy is flowing more freely and that is why I feel it more intensely. During this time I have been doing a self-concentration meditation to start. During this portion I have been using a variation of the Feeling Exercise by Arnold Patent. I effectively acknowledge and feel the sensation. No labelling or judging since there is no good or bad energy. I then feel love and appreciation for the energy in the sensation. I use SFQ style visualizations. I then progress to more traditional SFQ techniques of healing and meditation.
Also in the past I have experience temporary leg or upper back pain from doing the active exercises. These I just see as the physical manifestations of my better health (sore muscles and repositioning body).
You are perfection,
