Meditation

Since ancient time, people have been meditating. Buddha even attained enlightenment through meditation (under the bodhi tree).
Meditation brings inner peace and awareness in our daily life, which is getting faster and more hectic everyday. Therefore it is not surprising that an increasing number of persons find their way to a yoga centre or a still-sitting meditation.
Meditation can be done in various ways: most common is the meditation pose with the legs crossed (Lotus position). The right pose of the body is necessary especially during longer sitting meditation sessions. Meditation cushions (also called zafu, or seifu) support the back and pelvis when sitting. Cushions consequently enable the back to be kept straight.
