Our Silk and Wool Crescent Meditation Cushion is one of our exclusive Supreme Swan meditation cushions. Designed by both meditation and posture experts specifically for meditation, it is unequaled for support and comfort. Our crescent cushion has just the right tilt to help you sit comfortably in the perfect upright position - ready for meditation. It can be placed either directly on the floor, or for extra comfort and vibrational insulation, on one of our Meditation Wool Asana Mats.

Here is why this is the best meditation crescent cushion:
  • Tapered at an angle that can provide comfort and support for your torso.
  • 100% wool on the bottom and 100% Dupioni silk on the top 
  • Select combination of high-density and memory foam - support and comfort
  • Special coccyx / tail bone relief section
  • Removable cover
  • Carrying handle
  • Large enough to fit all body types
  • Measures 23 inches wide, 16 inches Long, and 6 inches Tall
  • Made here in Southern California by local and small businesses.
    Raw silk on top and pure wool beneath, materials that Paramahansa Yogananda advised will help insulate the body from earth currents while meditating. Inside is the secret to the comfort - a carefully selected combination of high-density foam for support, and memory foam for comfort and body temperature control. The crescent cushion also includes a special design feature to relieve pressure on the coccyx, or tail bone as even slight pressure on the coccyx during longer periods of sitting can cause back and neck pains.

    Unlike most cushions, the Supreme Swan Crescent Cushion will not lose its shape or need refilling after time. 

    All cushions have a 14 day limit for returns. 

    *This cushion is not intended for medical therapy or treatment.

    ** We apologize for the price increase due to huge increase of prices and lack of supply of all foam products in the recent months.

    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

    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.

    Very comfortable!

    This cushion is the perfect height and firmness. I’ve tried many meditation cushions over the decades, and this one is the most comfortable floor sitting cushion.

    The Best Meditation Cushion

    I used to try other's meditation cushions at retreats. None stood out until this one. No sit bone pain period. 4 years and 1300 hours later, still great! One thing experience has shown, the seams shift away from the edges of the cushion over time. Take a few minutes and reset them when you see this. It will reduce strain on the delicate cloth.

    Most comportable

    I had been mediting about 35 years and have tried all types of meditation cushions. A monk asked me to try his and since then I've been using it daily. For me it's the most comfortable medition cushion I've ever used and I can spend hours on it without fatigue to my legs.
