Adding a bit of extra height can help alleviate some of your knee pain. Sometimes it is as simple as adding a <a href="http://www.samadhicushions.com/Zafu-Support-Cushion-with-Zippered-Cover-p/s-5460.htm" title="Support cushion" rel="nofollow">support cushion</a>. Here is a link to a video on our <a href="http://www.samadhicushions.com/Meditation-Bench-s/96.htm" title="benches" rel="nofollow">benches</a>. Benches can be very helpful for taller people. If possible, a meditation instructor can be very helpful for helping you with your posture and finding the source of your pain. Thank you, Kelsey Hello Braden,

I was formerly in the military and did a lot of damage to my knees. They tend to slip out of place when I sit in any lotus position. I have been doing kneeling meditation but I seem to have discomfort with most benches as they tend to make my legs fall asleep. I am a larger guy around 6'2 and 200 lbs. Please send me any suggestions in models that would help. I have read most of the descriptions on all your benches but I'm still at a loss. Thanks so much for your help. Braden Hello,

You just don't buy anything for you to have something ti use but, everything has a reason. You have to be in a comfortable state before starting your meditation. This article is very informative and thank you for sharing this! It is very important that you know the rationale why do you need to have a cushion when meditating.
