SeiFu, the Adjustable Meditation Cushion

Overview Sitting Positions Testimonials Design

There are many ways to use the adjustable meditation cushion. It can be set to various heights and angles to support both cross-legged positions and kneeling positions. You will find many combinations that are just right for you. Experiment and have fun.

Burmese 1 SeiFu on its side, both straps tight. Meditator in cross-legged (Burmese or Lotus) position.

This position provides broad, comfortable support and can be readily shifted to an upright kneeling position.

Burmese 2 SeiFu right-side up, straps open, with meditator in cross-legged (Lotus or Burmese) position.

The meditator can shift the bag (by sliding the buckwheat hull filler) to find various sitting heights along the side of the cushion.

Burmese 3 SeiFu right-side up, with upper strap open, bottom strap tight; the meditator is in cross-legged (Burmese or Lotus) position.

Height is added to the slope of the upper half of the cushion promoting a natural lumbar curve for more comfortable sitting.

Seiza 1 SeiFu right-side up, with one strap open and the meditator in kneeling (Seiza) position.

The meditator can shift the bag (by sliding the buckwheat hull filler) to find various heights and angles for a healthy and comfortable lumbar curve.

Seiza 2 SeiFu on its side, straps tight, with meditator in kneeling (Seiza) position.

The cushion on its side provides a very broad and comfortable support.

Seiza 3 SeiFu right-side up, both straps tight; the meditator is in kneeling (Seiza) position.

This configuration gives the meditator the highest elevation. Height can be adjusted by using the buckles to shorten or lengthen the straps.
