Using Cushions and Mats in Your Meditation Practice
Using a meditation cushion is more than just a comfort aid; it's a posture supporter. Allowing you to tilt the pelvis forward and maintain the natural curvature of your spine ensures that your body is in the correct position.
Cushions contribute to the psychological readiness for meditation practice - because it's always there, resting evenly on a nice mat, as if adorning the floor with the potential for patience and durability. And it has an effect on the mind wishing to avoid any discomfort.
Additionally, as prolonged sessions can become uncomfortable when your feet are pressed against the floor, using a mat can help with this.
If you don't have one suitable cushion at home, you can use two or as many cushions as you need, one on top of the other. If you're interested in purchasing a
