Review on 🧘 Burgundy Organic Cotton Tall Folding Meditation Bench: Ultimate Comfort for Enhanced Meditation Experience by Heather Sanchez

This meditation bench is the best material that has happened to me in practice for a long time. This makes it much easier for me to keep my back straight than when I'm sitting on a zafu with my legs in lotus, half lotus, just crossed in the normal position, or with one calf in front of the other. A bit of improvisation to position things so I'm comfortable and not putting too much pressure on the tops of my legs: I use a foam pad about an inch and a half thick. I put a bench on the back of the zabuton and then I have a small square rug that I put on the floor right behind the zabuton which gives me a place to rest my thighs that isn't entirely flat. The height is like a zabuton so my knees (which are on the zabuton) are just a tiny bit higher than the tips of my toes which greatly reduces stress, strain and pressure on my ankles and feet. I read from a reviewer that the speaking bench was folded under them and lowered over their bums while they meditated; I can't imagine how this could be possible without someone almost intentionally casually opening the bench (*and* moving A LOT from side to side while meditating. Which isn't part of the real meditation, so if you're doing this , you're not actually meditating - you're fidgeting, which isn't the same thing). Perhaps if you have a bench on a slippery surface and a whole host of other unlikely conditions coincide (including A LOT of side-to-side movement during meditation) it could lead to this result. but I still can't imagine it. . Deliberately open the legs, make sure they are fully open, and ideally do not place the bench on a slippery surface, otherwise it is unlikely to fall off during use. Enjoy. Of course I know that.
