Zafu

Description

This zafu is handcrafted with an extra strong cotton fabric, triple stitching and a white band to write your name.

The large zafu is recommended for tall or stout people. A quality meditation cushion is a safe investment to always be comfortable and relaxed during your meditation hours. Zafu allows you to adopt an impeccable posture, and therefore to take care of both your mind and your body. By raising the pelvis, you stand straight, your spine is straightened and you are not in tension. Zafu may seem a bit hard at first, but when you use it, it will adapt quickly to have the right firmness.

The kapok is the traditional filling of zafus in Japan: it allows you to meditate easily for prolonged periods. The microfiber which constitutes it is hollow like a bamboo and covered with a greasy substance; for these reasons, kapok is lighter than cotton, almost waterproof and free from pests.

Kapok zafu can settle after prolonged use: place it in the sun so that it returns to its original shape. One of the folds is not sewn, which will allow you to fill it again if you wish. To clean your zafu, brush the cloth or use a vacuum cleaner. Stains can be removed by rubbing it with a damp cloth.
