ways to use your grounding pillow
for sitting upright in meditation
our buckwheat pillow adjust to your sitz bones for precise support and alignment of your spine. responsive and grounding for meditation and breathing practices. modification: if you need to sit higher make a platform with two eco-foam yoga blocks and place the pillow on top to sit comfortably.
as a steadying weight
an aid to stillness. the gentle weight of the pillow on your chest or belly will deepen your breath. perfect for when you are feeling anxious and restless or to promote a deeper supine practice.
for complex and long hold poses
place anywhere your feel discomfort so you can release fully into long hold poses such as the lizard and pigeon pose.
support for tight ankles
place under the tops of your feet to release feet and ankles without overextending.
cradle for head and neck
place under your forehead for forward bends and child's pose or under your head and neck to sink deeper into savasana.
to release cranial and facial tension
start by assuming a child's pose and move into the shifting contours of your pillow to release embedded tension in your forehead and jaw.
for correct alignment while working at your desk.
use as a malleable cushion for added support.
when we take the one seat on our meditation cushion we become our monastery. we create the compassionate space that allows for the arising of all things: sorrows, loneliness, shame, desire, regret, frustration, happiness.
