Ergonomically Correct for The Human Physiology Zen Yoga Chair (Black, Vegan Leather)

I took a chance and ordered this product based on some solid reviews and the theorizing about the product from looking at the pictures. I am about 210 pounds and about 6 feet tall. I have in the past, to my dismay, found that there seems to be a target demographic for people making meditation gear. They seem to be perfect for a lighter frame under 130 pounds and in the 5 ft range, which I clearly don't fit. I have purchased a number of meditation chairs and cushions over the years. And I've "made it work" for the most part.This chair captured the imagination though when I saw it. The design allows the legs to not be pressed on each other. I have really enjoyed it thus far. It seems to be really well made. It can comfortably seat me for an hour or more. It handles my size and weight just fine. The material doesn't irritate skin or anything. This was worth the money. Again, it solves the leg problem! I've never had a seat that really did that until now.

Mheight: 5 ft 10 inchesweight: 215 poundslovely item. this chair alleviates pressure on your ankles and tailbone, allowing you to sit with good posture. I bought this because i enjoy sitting cross legged while i play video games. The price point for this item is high, but if you sit crossed legged often, it will pay you back in comfort.

Amazing comfortable meditation seat! This seat are for those that just want to meditate comfortably. Seat automatically corrects your posture while at the same time helps strengthen your back, allowing you to focus on meditating. Seat is lightweight and does not get warm with long sessions. The Vegan leather option is easy to clean with no synthetic fabric smell. The stitching and seams are perfectly done. The cushioning retracts perfectly to its original form. Do yourself a favor and buy this seat. Price is actually reasonable for the high craftsmanship and engineering that went into making this seat. It will take a couple of sessions for your body to get used to holding the seated posture. After a few days you will feel fully comfortable and will be able to sit for 1 hour or more. Begin meditating quietly for 20 minutes a day, then work your way up to an hour once you feel comfortable to do so. Just focus on your breath. Be well! Be happy!

I have been very pleased with my alexia. I think it is very overpriced. But I have to admit that I can meditate for longer without my feet and legs falling asleep.

After a few months of back and forth in my head, I finally bought this chair. I thought it was a bit pricey (my wife still thinks it is. :) However, this chair is unreal. When it first came and I saw how small it was I thought I was about to eat crow! I am 6'1 and around 250 pounds and have never been able to get close to the lotus position without killing my knees and back. This chair is so well designed, I have been doing 30 minute meditations with no discomfort at all. That is the point, right? Clearing your mind is hard to do if you have an uncomfortable pain when trying to do it! 100 out of 10 score for this chair. It is well worth the money in my humble opinion.

Summary: I love it, highly recommended.I bought this because of pain in sitting, primarily knee pain. I had moved from half-lotus on a cushion to seiza, which became intolerable.So I then moved to seated meditation in a regular chair, and it was okay but I did not feel grounded at all. And my rear hurt.I cannot image a more comfortable way to sit than the Alexia. At first I felt it was tipping me backward a little too much, but I realized I just needed to scoot back, and the seat slopes up and supports.It's expensive but very much worth it for me.

It helps if you sit all the way back, glutes almost touching the edge, and tilt your pelvis so you have more curve in your lower back. Sit up straight and erect, but relaxed. Excellent for extended meditations!

I have been using this seat for over a year now. Its super comfortable (able to sit for more than 1 hour), improved my posture and experienced deep meditation!!
