The best meditation cushions to help you find your zen in 2024
You can use 'em as extra floor seating too!
We all know the benefits of meditation – it can help reduce stress, lower anxiety levels and just generally help you take some time for yourself away from your housemates, partner or family (hey, we all need some alone time every now and then!). Some have also reported that starting their day with meditating helps them to maintain a sense of clarity, calm and focus throughout the remaining waking hours, too.
Naturally, this is all pretty important stuff, but the fact is, longer meditation or yoga sessions can get uncomfy. You might get a sore back, legs or bum which, honestly, is going to ruin your vibe and be a distraction. Who needs to be thinking about that when you're simply trying to free your mind? Step forward: meditation cushions.
Yep, luckily there's an easy solution – a meditation cushion will give you a more supportive, comfortable place to perch while you're meditating, so you can go for longer without getting distracted or feeling that you have to stretch. Some, like bolsters, can be used to improve your yoga game too, helping support you in certain positions so you can nail them properly. An extra bonus? They can be used as additional seating for guests in the future, too.
We've found plenty of floor/meditation cushions of all different shapes and sizes, so you're bound to find something that you like – and will go with the soothing space you've carved out for your practice. Good vibes all round.
