Best Meditation Cushions For Home Mindfulness Practice

Skip navigation!

Begin Slideshow

A meditation practice technically only requires you and your thoughts. Sounds simple, right? That said, if things like a guided app or designated meditation cushion will encourage or enhance your practice, then by all means — go for it. (If you're like me, a gewgaw or two can help motivate me to make mindfulness a habit.)

If you're looking to either start or level up any mindfulness practice, investing in a meditation cushion or bolster can help you look forward to taking some moments of pause in your day, in addition to giving yourself a dedicated space to pause and center your mind. We've scoped out the best meditation cushions at every price point, from an eco-friendly organic-cotton-and-buckwheat pad to an acupressure-spike-studded option for maximum comfort. Find your center, ahead.
