The lotus-patterned meditation cushion is designed for those who set aside time each day for quiet reflection, yoga practice, or simply restful sitting. You receive a carefully crafted piece made from natural materials, providing a comfortable seat even on the bare floor.
Certified organic cotton and natural buckwheat hulls
The cushion is made from OCS 100 certified organic cotton. The outer cover uses GOTS-certified dyed organic cotton with a zip at the bottom, allowing you to adjust the filling yourself. The inner cover is undyed GOTS organic cotton with a drawstring closure. The filling consists of high-quality natural buckwheat hulls that conform to the shape of your seated posture, supporting both your spine and hips.
Size and adjustable height
The cushion measures approximately 33 cm in diameter and 17 cm in height, with a gross weight of 2.1 kg. If you find it too high or too low, you can remove some buckwheat through the zip or add more later. Over time, the cushion shapes itself to your body rather than the other way around.
The lotus motif
The lotus flower on the cushion is a traditional symbol of transformation from darkness into light, and of moving from ignorance into clarity. Many people choose it specifically for meditation because it serves as a quiet daily reminder of the inward work of stillness.
How to use
Place the cushion on a soft, even surface or a meditation mat. Sit cross-legged on it with your spine upright. If your knees do not rest comfortably, try sitting on the front edge so that your pelvis tilts slightly forward, allowing your back to lengthen naturally. We recommend shorter sessions during the first days so that both you and the cushion can settle in together.
Origin and packaging
The meditation cushion is handcrafted in India for the Dutch brand Yogi & Yogini, and arrives in a bio-based plastic bag (bioplastic bag). You receive one piece, ready to support many years of meditation practice.
