INSTRUCTIONS / TIPS
Tips for choosing a Zabuton and Zafu
ZABUTON
The zabuton acts as the base for your meditation. It defines your meditation space, and cushions your knees. We at Still Sitting like the traditional square zabuton because we find that many people need the front-to-back room that a square zabuton provides.
We make three sizes and two thicknesses. Our Small size is 30” x 30” – fine for smaller folks sitting cross-legged and anyone sitting on a meditation bench. Our Medium is 33” x 33” and is our most popular size, perfect for most folks. Our Large size is 36” x 36” and gives enough room for long legs (typically 6’ 2” or taller). You can only choose small or medium zabutons with our Cushion Set. To buy a Large Zabuton you must buy your cushions ala carte.
•Our Slim Zabuton has two inches of loft, weighs about 7 lbs, and is happy to be hauled around..
• Our Thick Zabuton is big and comfy, stuffed with four inches of 100% cotton batting.
ZAFU
Choose either a round or crescent shaped Zafu. All our Zafus are made of 100% cotton duck fabric, double stitched with heavy duty thread for extra strength, and come with a convenient carrying handle.
Our round “Classic” Zafu is our most popular meditation cushion. We stuff it with kapok or buckwheat. We stuff our kapok zafu tight so that it is soft but firm to sit on, and stuff our buckwheat zafu looser to allow it to mold to your body. Our Classic Zafu stuffed with kapok weights about 2.5 lbs. and is approx. 14” in diameter and 8.5” high. Our Classic Zafu stuffed with buckwheat weights about 5.5 lbs. and is approx. 16” in diameter and 6” high.
Our Crescent Zafu cradles you, and gives your legs support on their way down to your zabuton. Our specially tapered design means the zafu follows your leg-line right down to the floor. In our Crescent Zafu, both kapok and buckwheat are filled tight. Our Crescent Zafu stuffed with kapok weights about 2 lbs., and stuffed with buckwheat it weights about 5 lbs. It is approx. 20” across, and 7” high. Our Crescent Zafu comes in Black, Slate Blue, Burgundy, and Forest Green.
All of our Zafus – whether round or crescent shaped, buckwheat or kapok - have an opening that allows you to adjust the fill to your preference.
Unlike some cushions you’ll find, all Still Sitting meditation cushions, benches and Buddhist robes are made right here in the USA -- in our Vashon Island workshop and in Seattle, Washington.
SUPPORT CUSHION
This flexible little cushion offers support in multiple ways. You may want to use one or two with your zafu in order to give you the height you need, and to help roll your pelvis forward so that you sit comfortably upright. Our support cushion can be used in other ways too – to support a knee that doesn’t touch the floor, or help cushion your ankle, or for extra lift on a meditation bench.
We generally recommend sitting on a zabuton, a zafu, and a support cushion. The support cushion may be placed directly under the zafu in order to give one more height, but commonly it is placed under and a little behind the zafu in order to roll the pelvis forward, and strengthen your lower back. Our support cushion measures 14”x14”x2”, and comes in Black, Slate Blue, Burgundy, and Forest Green.
