I was finishing up yoga teacher training and wanted a cushion for myself to support my home meditation practice. I later decided 2 extra would be helpful for practice teaching others. All three arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described and pictured. I have had a chance to use all three cushions numerous times. They are all comfortable with the perfect amount of firmness. I used one through hours of lecture during a week long retreat as well. I found it worked great in the traditional sitting position, but also used it between my legs (on its side) when I needed to occasionally change position. It was sturdy in either position and provided the comfort I hoped for. In the future if I need more cushions, I will purchase these again. I also recommended them to my classmates. I always seek out organic and/or socially responsible products when available. I was grateful to find exactly that with this meditation cushion. The last thing I wanted was to sit, attempting to tame the monkeys in my mind, while resting on a cushion full of chemicals. Thank you, Seat of Your Soul, for providing an excellent product while I continue my journey inward. Review: Posture and Productivity has Improved After Only a Week! - I got this meditation cushion about a week ago and have been using it regularly - not only for meditation but for reading and writing on the floor. It has helped my posture and my legs greatly already! I feel the effects of consistently sitting cross legged - it's fantastic. The cushion itself is quite large and ample buckwheat ensures a firm seat. As of right now, I haven't taken any of the buckwheat out to soften it up but it feels pretty comfortable as is. I just got the Avantree Adjustable Minitable from desertcart so that I can sit even more time using this cushion and do work on the floor. I already tried it out and sat for more than 1 1/2 hours straight without even thinking about it while reading! I know this will really boost my work efficiency. The customer service of this company is quite nice with thoughtful emails and they really seem concerned about how the cushion works for you. I highly recommend this cushion and for more people to start sitting on the ground or bed using this product. I really like it and hope it continues to help me in all the ways I have mentioned.

BYOZ.....Bring Your Own Zafu
Although I have practiced for some years, a hip replacement in 2009, plus being a creaky jointed 64 yr old has limited my sitting zazen on the floor cross legged or kneeling... I've used a low stool instead. I saw cushions at the Zen center and was interested in trying one. Well, Amazon does have everything now and I ordered this Zafu...And am I ever glad I did. Not only did it arrive on time in great condition, it's packed so firmly I can actually sit on the floor in a kneeling position, which is more comfortable for me but I can also cross my legs on it! I get up at 5:30 am while it's still dark, light the fire and greet the day on this wonderful, firm cushion. Not to denigrate other cushions but this one was half the price of any other I'd seen. Definitely a great bargain but the real value is in the fact that it allows me to sit erect in a dignified posture, able to do zazen for an hour or more without any discomfort. And I mean there are no tingles, going to sleep or hurt knees when I go to get up. And the cat loves to run chin on it and crawls on top, must be the stuffing!! Thank you for producing such a great product.

A Very Nice Meditation Cushion
This cushion is about 15 inches in diameter and almost 6 inches in height. It weighs around 5.25 lbs. It has a firm feeling when you seat on it. It also comes with a liner holding the buckwheat hulls (about 5 lbs) with a line zipper and an outside shell of sturdy cotton ( I ordered one with a purple color) with a round zipper at the bottom. It appears well made and durable. First thing I did was to open the liner with buckwheat hulls exposed to air. Inspected the hulls and they looked clean and hygienic. I have used it for a couple of days and am very pleased with it. In fact, I feel well supported and for the first time have no back issues sitting on a cushion for an extended period of time. Sitting on it, my knees touch the ground and my hips almost 6 inches above the ground. That makes me feel quite stable and with the spine effortlessly erect. I'm glad that I found this cushion and pleased to see that it has worked so well for me. I do highly recommend it to those whose knees stay lower than their hips while sitting on a meditation cushion. This is the one that can help your meditation posture.

Just what I needed
I am so happy that I bought this. It is a different kind of comfortable, for those like me and just getting into floor/meditation sitting. I have found that sitting on it for 30min - 1hour each week really helps alleviate my lower back pain. Of course, I am always striving for more, but do not always get it. I have bought one as a gift I like it so much.

Find God or Find Yourself on this Seat
I actually bought this so that I could sit comfortably on the floor with my toddler, while enjoying playtime with him. I only occasionally meditate, but I will probably use this seat for that purpose as well. This seat is wonderful. I selected the natural color, which I think is a nice nod to the natural simplicity of this sort of object. Please be aware that it's got a little bit of weight to it because of the construction and hulls, and also be aware that it's not going to be spongy or springy like foam, but more firm like natural buckwheat pillows or seats are. Still, the holes do a nice job of conforming to your shape, and I'm very happy with the feel. Think of it as nature's "memory foam." A word about sound, as that can distract you from concentration. Once you get nestled in it, it's very quiet, and my experience with buckwheat hulls, is that the more that you use the pillow or seat, the quieter it gets as you settle in. I'm incredibly happy with this purchase. Honestly, I buy a lot of stuff on Amazon, but I think this is easily my best purchase for 2019. Cheers.

Good quality cushion
I appreciate that this brand uses organic materials and fabric. Itโs a well designed and constructed meditation cushion. Just the right amount of hull for a firm seated position without feeling stiff. Was more than comfortable enough for an easy 30min meditation and Iโm sure it will feel good for longer meds as well. Also works great as a small bolster for relaxing yoga poses. Overall really happy with this purchase.

So comfortable and useful. Great purchase.
I really didn't know what I was doing making this purchase as a new meditator, but I LOVE this cushion. It's a perfect size and it's really comfortable to sit on. I was sitting on pillows and blankets but could never get as comfortable as I have on this cushion. I already gave one as a gift to my friend who is also starting to meditate. After I ordered, I saw the posts others had made about bugs. I searched through everything when the cushion arrived and didn't find anything like that.

Grounding comfort
I love this for meditation. The buckwheat fill is nice and giving but also firm and organic. The height is perfect for trying different leg positions while you chill out.

Great little cushion
I have hard time not sitting like a completely posture deficient goblin most days, but this cushion helps so much. I was a bit worried I would feel like I was sitting on a booster seat, but thatโs not the case at all. Itโs great for my neck and back and Iโve been using it everyday since I got it.

Just right
Got this when it was on sales. Very happy with the packaging and the product itself. I saw some other comments mentioning it was too high, but I find it is perfect.

Perfect for humans and cats
Itโs beautiful and so comfortable. Definitely makes meditation easier, as I can comfortably sit much longer than on the floor or a regular cushion. It also makes me want to sit down to meditate. My cat is pretty sure it is a cat bed. Unfortunately I have to vacuum the cat hair off frequently, but she is happy and looks like a little princess on it.
