It took me months to pick out which color zafu I wanted and I love that I went with the Ocean blue. I also recently bought the neck wrap in Spruce and love the two colors together. Back to the zafu... Generally, I'm moving a mile a minute, so these last two years I've focused on slowing down and being still. To encourage me to do that, I wanted to make my stillness pauses comfortable and beautiful and my zafu does just that. I joined a Monday morning meditation group and have felt so many benefits of more stillness. I also use my zafu when I sit on the floor to stretch or pet/brush my dog. The Olive & Olde's zafu has high quality, local filling and has kept its shape (and beauty) over a year of use! I definitely have dreams of a collection of zafus.
