How to Use

01Sit on the front third of the cushion rather than the exact center.
02Let the pelvis tilt slightly forward so the lower back can lengthen.
03Allow knees to angle downward; add a mat underneath if they need support.
04Choose the firmer variant for longer sits, or the aromatic variant for a softer ritual cue.

Care Guide

▪Remove the outer cover before washing and use a gentle cold cycle.
▪Air dry the cover fully before replacing it on the inner cushion.
▪Do not machine wash the filled inner cushion; air it in a dry shaded place.
▪Redistribute the hulls by hand after shipping or long storage.

Questions

Before your first sit.

Practical details for choosing, using, and caring for the cushion.

Is the cushion firm or soft?

It is intentionally firm. A zafu should lift and support the body rather than sink like a sofa pillow.

Which variant should I choose?

Choose the standard hull fill for the most neutral daily seat. Choose an aromatic fill if you want a stronger sensory ritual.

Is the cover washable?

Yes. Remove the outer cover and wash it gently in cold water, then air dry before reassembly.

Is it suitable for beginners?

Yes. Beginners often benefit from extra hip elevation because it reduces strain in the lower back and knees.

Can I use it without a meditation mat?

You can, though a mat underneath is more comfortable if your knees or ankles rest on a hard floor.
