Meditation Bench and Zabuton


Dave has been starting to practice meditation some but found he was struggling with maintaining posture and that back pain was distracting him. I built him a meditation bench out of pine for Christmas and sewed a cushion (zabuton) out of grey canvas with blue piping.

I won't bother to write out a tutorial or directions but if you found this post while looking for a how-to for either of these items and are interested in measurements or how I made them, just leave a comment and I'll add more information.

Hey, I've been looking at plans to make a meditation bench. The measurements seem very different from one other that I wonder if each one is really a "custom" job. Did you come up with some universal measurement which can be applied to various body types and heights? I'm 6' tall.

Regards!
