You pay attention to what you put into your body. You care about your physical, emotional, and mental well-being. You meditate regularly in order to focus on compassion and listening to the universe and you do yoga to strengthen your muscles, improve flexibility, and improve your life. That focus on health and wellness is wonderful, but it needs to encompass more than just your body alone. You also need to consider the products you use in pursuit of inner peace, mental wellness, and physical health.

The Need for the Right Accessories

You can meditate anywhere. All you need is a small amount of space where you can sit with your back straight and legs crossed. Of course, anyone who has ever tried to meditate while sitting on cold concrete or hard wood flooring knows just how difficult it can be to achieve that state of being. You’re constantly pulled out of it.

Your posterior hurts. The cold from the floor is seeping into your bones and muscles. Eventually, it makes your backache and leads to tension in your shoulders.

A meditation pillow can help ensure that you’re able to meditate while preventing the physical world from sapping your attention and comfort. A zabuton or zafu could be the ideal option for your needs.

“Of course, not all meditation

cushion options are created equal.”

The Problem with Conventional Meditation Cushion Construction

With the growing popularity of yoga and meditation, you can find mats and cushions just about everywhere, from the sporting goods store to your local big box retailer. However, most of those are going to be the wrong choice. They’re made with synthetic materials and toxic chemicals. They’re coated with dangerous toxins to make them flame retardant.

All of these can have profound health impacts for you. VOCs (volatile organic compounds) can cause symptoms ranging from shortness of breath to nausea and eye and throat irritation. Flame retardants have been linked to health problems that run from reduced IQ to reproductive system problems and hormone disruption.

Buying a product that may cause damage to your health for use while pursuing improved health doesn’t make much sense. There is a solution, though. You can get around the negative health implications of synthetic materials and flame retardant chemicals with a wool meditation pillow.

Why Consider Wool?

What makes wool the better choice for meditation pillow construction? Actually, there are several key reasons that you should consider a wool zabuton or zafu.

• Natural – One reason is that wool is an all-natural material. It does not off-gas VOCs into the surrounding environment, nor does it have noxious fumes. It is 100% biodegradable, as well, meaning that not only is it good for your body and mind, but it is also good for the environment. Of course, wool is completely renewable, as well.
• Supportive – Another reason to consider a wool meditation cushion is the fact that it is one of the most supportive fibers available. Unlike foam cushions, wool is firm, yet supportive. This ensures that your cushion helps keep your spine and hips aligned and in proper posture, while also providing comfort for your thighs and legs.
• No Body Odors – Memory foam and other types of cushion material can provide homes for odor-causing bacteria. However, wool is both antimicrobial and antibacterial, meaning that you have no worries about it developing odors over time and through normal use.
• Fabric Options – With the right meditation pillow maker, you will have your choice of fabric coverings to help ensure that you get a customized solution. For instance, you may be able to choose between heavy-weight cotton, linen/cotton blends, pure linen, and more. Cotton is a good choice for durability, but linen adds better dirt resistance, which is important for any meditation cushion as they will be used on the floor.

When everything is said and done, a wool zafu or zabuton can be an ideal solution to help improve your health and wellness through meditation and yoga. An all-natural pillow supports better physical and mental health by eliminating VOCs and toxic chemicals, providing good support during meditation, and helping you live your best life.
