This handcrafted wedge meditation cushion is designed specifically to support upright, relaxed posture when meditating in a chair. Its tapered shape, 100% wool base, and 100% dupioni silk top work together to gently roll the pelvis forward, insulate the body from the seat, and enhance comfort and stillness during practice. A removable coccyx section, removable dry-cleanable cover, and dimensions tailored to fit most chairs make it a practical, long-lasting tool for consistent meditation support.

Traditional Context
Traditional Context
Paramahansa Yogananda specified in his lessons that the meditator should sit on a seat of wool and silk — materials understood in yogic tradition to insulate the body's pranic energy and resist the downward pull of earth currents. The cushion is not incidental to practice. It is where practice begins.
FAQ
FAQ
What height cushion is right for me?
As a general guide — if your knees float above your hips when seated cross-legged, choose a higher cushion. If your hips tilt forward naturally, a lower or wedge style may suit better. Contact us if you are unsure.
Can I wash the cushion cover?
The silk and wool cover should be spot cleaned only. Do not machine wash. Remove the cover carefully and allow to air dry flat away from direct sunlight.
Is the cushion suitable for chair meditation?
The wedge cushion works well on a chair — placed under the sitting bones it encourages the same forward tilt of the pelvis that supports upright posture.
How long will it last?
With daily use and proper care, several years at minimum. The inner fill can be replaced if needed — contact us and we will assist.

This is such a beautifully made meditation cushion. It is firm and comfortable. The Blue color is stunning. It makes sitting in meditation easier. Thank you!
Months ago, I ordered 2 blue raw silk cushions for our visiting monastics. They are a beautiful blue and very well made. So, I ordered 2 more for our family's personal use. We sit on chairs and the cushions add the right height and forward angle.
First of all, I have to get used to sitting on a wedge cushion. The quality is good but the cushion could have been somewhat broader.
I am slim and it just fits, would have been pleasant if were broader.
The meditation cushion is extremely well designed. The tilt helps to keep you in a very natural posture with the back straight. Very comfortable, very well made. The materials are of very high quality. Very sturdy as well. Customer service is also amazing. One of the very best meditation cushions I have used so far. Highest recommendations!
Excellent meditation cushion! High quality materials and craftsmanship. I look forward to using it every day!
