Being produced from natural materials you will feel the energy of nature while meditating, practicing yoga or simply relaxing.

Meditation

The Asteya Bolster is an excellent support in the practice of meditation (knee position) especially in combination with a Zabuton cushion that additionally protects the knees and ankles.

Contributes to the relaxation of the muscles of the legs and spine, especially in the lumbar area. Bolsters can be used to support the back or elevate the hips during long meditation sessions.

The spelt filling adjusts to the shape of your body. It keeps the spine in correct position throughout the practice, automatically improving breathing, blood circulation and energy. The Asteya bolster is just as useful when meditating, lying on your back as it can be used to support the knees.

 Yoga

The Asteya Bolster is very useful in Yin Yoga or Restorative Yoga in positions that involve bending the back or as a roller for the neck, back or knees.

Aid in Relaxation Poses: They provide support in restorative yoga poses, allowing practitioners to relax into stretches more deeply.

Assist in Resting Poses: Bolsters can be placed under various parts of the body to make lying down more comfortable during relaxation exercises. In Yoga Nidra, usually practiced in the Savasana (lying on the back) posture, the bolster is often used as a knee support to reduce pressure on the spine in the lumbar area.

Facilitate Pranayama (Breathing Exercises): By elevating the upper body slightly, bolsters can help open up the chest and improve breathing techniques.
