Zabutons

The zabuton forms the foundation of your meditation practice and your meditation space.

Zabutons are rectangular meditation cushions placed beneath your zafu cushion or bench. It cushions your knees, ankles, and feet while providing a soft, stable foundation for seated meditation. Paired with a zafu, these two cushions create a traditional meditation cushion set used in Zen centers and home practice spaces around the world.

We make ours in three sizes and two thicknesses—regular and thick—so you can find the right fit for your body and posture. You can buy them individually or as part of a meditation cushion set with a matching zafu.

All Still Sitting zabutons use 100% cotton fabric and cotton batting, offering natural softness and durability. Our Folding Zabuton is a compact option filled with foam for easy travel and storage. Every cushion is sewn locally in the Pacific Northwest and made entirely in the U.S. with thoughtful care and craftsmanship.
