Awaken Meditation - Crescent Zafu Cushion and Zabuton Mat Set | Washable Yoga Bolster - 100% Natural Cotton Filled with Buckwheat

These cushions are absolutely amazing. I don't normally write reviews, but this product deserves praise. Here's what I like about them:1. Very comfortable. I use these nearly every day for meditation practice. Super comfortable even for long sits. We typically do 20-60 minutes per meditation.2. Attractive. I have the purple and orange colors. They complement one another very nicely and look very professional. The pictures make the fabric seem kind of velvety... which is not the case. They are soft, heavy weight cotton, much better than it looks in the photos.3. Well designed and constructed. The fabric has held up perfectly. I've washed the covers a few times and they look like new.In short, my partner and I love these! We sometimes take them to other yoga studios or retreats because we know our cushions will be more comfortable than the ones provided by others. Get these!Response to other comment about knee support: One reviewer thought the crescent moon wasn't large enough to support the knees. I don't think it is supposed to support the knees. In a meditative pose, the cushion supports your sit bones and the knees are lower and cushioned by the larger mat underneath. For me it would be uncomfortable if they DID support the knees.

I had always read that these cushions make meditation more comfortable, but I had brushed it off for like 20 years just sitting on the floor or using pillows, but this is SO MUCH BETTER! The moon shaped pillow does wonders for your posture, and the bottom square keeps the sides of your ankles from pushing into the hard ground and hurting. The buckwheat feels like it will hold it's shape way longer than cotton would, and it distributes your weight just so, so that your legs and butt won't fall asleep! I can't believe I waited this long to try one out!!!!! How was I meditating without this??? Also my cat tries to steal it every time I get up to go to the bathroom and when I'm moving around before I put it away in this little slot under my meditation alter. Toby Toebeans knows comfort, he says! Cat approved!

This set is well made, supportive and comfortable. I've been meditating for years and have used many different cushions. I find the crescent shape the best while sitting cross-legged. This crescent cushion makes it easy to align the spine and the zabuton brings comfort and support to the ankles and feet making it easy to sink deep into meditation.

This is more comfortable than a round cushion. It is nice to have a place to put feet when cross legged. A V-shaped cushion like this is a better shape for me than round. Overall the product is well constructed.While I like this product, after a few uses it's become clear that I need more filling in the cushion. There is a lot of room in the cushion to add fill and it would stop the cushion from flattening out to the extent that it does during a sitting. I tend to prefer being a little more elevated. Having more fill allows one to take some out if needed to make adjustments. Not having enough is more challenging to fix.Update: I added some more buckwheat hulls and it's my favorite cushion.

Its very comfy even for a yoga beginner. Can be used separately but I love using the pillows together. Its very well made and lovely color.

The bottom cushion is almost like having nothing on the floor. The Crescent Zafu is very heavy and may end up being harmful. The Zafu is also made of slippery material which makes it more difficult to stay on. The overall quality of the set is poor and the price is absurd considering the low quality.

I love this product. It is my favorite to sit on while meditating. I have spend more money on other products for my business and this is the most comfortable for me to sit on. Gives you perfect support so that your spine is aligned appropriately .

This is a really great product. I use it every day for my meditation. After a month, I washed it in the washing machine, it is very fine; no change of form and color. The gray color is great, matches with many furniture and decoration.
