I believe the answer is:

nun

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'she often kneels' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'in an uncomfortable position' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'NUN' can be found hidden inside 'an uncomfortable position'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nun that I've seen before include "A palindromic holy woman" , "Woman in religious community" , "eg Carmelite" , "She's made vows" , "Woman in Holy Orders" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
