Handmade Irish Folding Hardwood Stool

This meditation stool is hand made in Ireland by a craftsman in Co.Mayo.  Its materials are locally sourced hardwoods, and is lightly varnished for long lasting protection.

The stool has a slight forward incline, but also has rounded legs to allow the tilt angle to self-adjust for anyone using it. 

The legs are also foldable so the stool is easily portable, and it can be carried using accompanying string.

Some cushioning material is also provided to make the chair that extra little bit more comfortable during those longer forays into zazen.

Salubrion Seat – New and Very Popular Cross-Legged Seat

This seat is more suitable for those who prefer to sit in the cross legged position, but not necessarily for the more experienced.  It has become hugely popular in the US with a range of different meditation styles.

Salubrion Seat - History
Charles Saiki, a retired architectural draftsman and lifelong artist, has faithfully meditated over the past thirty years in his self-built home in Hawaii. He first developed the idea of a compact meditation chair because he continuously needed to adjust his cushion, never achieving complete comfort or concentration. He spent three years refining its form and function before he shared the world. 

This product has been applauded in the US for providing a comfortable, sustainable meditation position which allows better alignment of the spine for regular breathing, as well as taking the weight off both the knees (as in a stool), and the ankles (as in regular lotus).

Sit Healthily
Built upon thirty years of meditation experience, the L-100 Salubrion Seat™ provides exceptional support for floor sitting, assisting in proper back alignment and lumbar curve for superior comfort.

At a slightly elevated state, the user benefits from increased bloodflow to the legs and greater relaxation. Deeper and longer meditation sessions are achievable due to the elimination of distracting aches, pains, and fatigue.

The L-100 supports the user at a slight elevation, providing increased blood flow to the legs. The gently flared lateral supports blossom outward to guide the user into the optimal position for proper back alignment and lumbar curve. The L-100 Seat's diminutive size and weight make it easily portable.
