Gift giving is a meaningful tradition across many of the world’s cultures and celebrations — a time when we think deeply about the people we care about and try to honor them with something meaningful, inspirational, and welcomed.
If you are visiting Sage Meditation, it is likely that someone on your gift list has an interest in meditation. Or, you may be looking to give yourself a gift — which is something we really must do. Honor yourself.
A meditation gift can be quite personal. In the case of meditation cushions, it helps to know quite a bit about the recipient. Here are some questions to consider:
- Are they new to meditation or have they been practicing for some time?
- Do they have a preferred posture — sitting cross-legged, kneeling, or sitting in a chair?
- What is their height, weight, and level of flexibility?
- Do they have a preferred cushion shape?
- What colors do they like?
- Do they have enough room in their living space for larger cushions?
If meditation cushions feel too personal for gift giving, we have a variety of other options that may be more appropriate — such as meditation chimes and meditation mala beads. These make thoughtful, universally appreciated gifts for anyone with a meditation practice.
Whatever you choose, shopping early is always a good idea — not just to avoid delays, but to reduce the stress that tends to creep in as the season gets busy. A little planning goes a long way toward a more peaceful holiday.
