Meditation cushions round

On a round meditation cushion can be seated in two ways, the legs crossed infront of the cushion (lotus position), or the legs kneeling alongside of the pillow (seiza).

Classic round cushions

The classic round meditation cushions ensure that you can tilt the pelvis forward, so that the natural curvature of your spine is maintained and your knees are directed freely downwards. From here, your legs can take on any desired position that you like most. It is advisable to combine a meditation cushion with a zabuton so that your knees and ankles can rest in a comfortable and gentle way.

The round Raja meditation cushions of Yogitri have a height of about 15 cm and is the most used meditation cushion. This model is available with and without imprint.

The low Nada and Moreh meditation cushions from Yogitri are suitable for lean meditation practitioners with not too long legs. Low sitting requires flexible muscles.

The round Laya meditation cushions of Yogitri have a height of about 20 cm and are suitable for less agile meditation practitioners with long legs.

The high Agni and Maha meditation cushions of Yogitri are used not only for meditation, but also as a yoga cushion or yoga post for yoga or sitting exercises.

The cross-section of a standard meditation cushion is approximately 30 cm. For extra comfort for people with wider hips, there are also pillows with a diameter of 40 cm.

Tips:

Round meditation cushions can also be placed on their side, after prolonged meditation tension in the legs can occur. By placing the cushion on its side, the legs are less stressed. At meditation schools they often place two pillows on top of each other.

Often, when the knees are being loaded, meditation cushions are placed under the knees for support. You can also use a pranayama yoga punch for this.

Yoga Hocker

The high Yogitri meditation cushions, also called Yoga Hockers, are very suitable as a seat cushion in the yoga studio or just at home. The Maha meditation cushion is the highest and has a high and wide seat, the size is approximately 40 Ø x 40 cm. The Agni meditation cushion has a size of approximately 30 Ø x 35 cm.

Zafu

The Zafu is the traditional Japanese pleated round meditation cushion. The characteristic feature of this pillow is that it lifts the hips and the upper body so that the legs can rest comfortably. This variety of pleats has an ergonomic design and offers you comfort in sitting in the right position. In addition, this cushion ensures proper alignment of the spine and stabilizes the back. If you use this cushion correctly, the spine gets its natural curvature.

The Yogitri Zafu meditation cushions have a low wide seat, only because of the folds other than the classic media cushions. Just like the classic pillows, Zafu's are generally used in combination with a zabuton.
