What cushion should I use for meditation?
An ancient fitness method in China. Sit cross-legged with your eyes closed, adjust your breathing, put your hands in a certain position and think nothing.

Meditation is also called "sitting on a plate" and "meditation". A basic practice method in Taoism. In Buddhism, it is called "meditation" or "meditation", which is a compulsory course of Zen. Sit in natural disk, double disk and single disk. Meditation can not only improve health and prolong life, but also increase wisdom.

Meditate by distracting attention, adjusting body posture, breathing rhythm and thoughts. So that people can calm down and enter a fixed state. After meditation, people will naturally feel happy, and with the deepening of meditation, the sense of joy will be different. After meditation, people crave the pleasure of meditation, so some people don't want to decide.

Meditation has some advantages. First of all, it can keep fit. During meditation, the qi of the body will move, and the yogi will feel some parts of the body burning and numb. This is a side effect of meditation, which is generally good. Another function is to deepen concentration and produce magical powers. Of course, this ordinary person can't do it:), and don't stick to it. Persistence is not good

It is very important for a meditator to choose a suitable cushion. The purpose of meditation is to get rid of greed and ignorance, but for those who just learn meditation, it is very hard not to have a suitable cushion.

Cushion should have proper elasticity and softness. For elasticity, most domestic pillows and cushions are too soft to be used as cushions.

1, cushion height

The right height is very important. Because of the different body structure, everyone has different requirements for the height of the cushion. If the cushion is too low, it will form a hunchback-like interference to the concentration of consciousness. If it is too high, there will be back emptiness, which will easily lead to backache.

Appropriate softness: the cushion is too soft and the center of gravity is unstable and easy to tilt. If it is too hard, the temple contact surface is easy to be injured, and the bones and skin are easy to ache.

When you feel that you can easily keep your back relatively straight, your posture is roughly correct. At this time, there is no feeling of back pressure and body shaking.

2. Buffer material

At present, kapok, sponge and buckwheat shell are generally used. After a try, these have various shortcomings, such as kapok and sponge do not dissipate heat, and buckwheat will slowly collapse after sitting, and it will not reach the height of laying. Other cloth mats lack elasticity.

Heat dissipation, air permeability and elasticity are very important, otherwise sedentary will cause a lot of discomfort.

The material used is natural, healthy, breathable and comfortable brown silk, which is made of curly brown silk through high temperature and high pressure and precision technology. The density is 80%-85%, which is not easy to deform, has good elasticity, conforms to ergonomic durability for the longest time, and is dry, breathable and moisture-proof besides being hard and moderate for running newspapers. It is the best material for chair cushions and cushions.
