I’m signed up to attend a 10 day Vipassana meditation retreat at the end of this month. You sit silently for 10 days from 4am to 9:30pm watching your breath go in and out.
Under what to bring, they list a meditation cushion or a meditation bench. I found some cedar under my cabin and these instructions on the Internet and in about 10 minutes had built my meditation bench. It’s ingenious the way you cut both legs in one cut. I didn’t have any hinges so I screwed it together. Then I put support pieces around the legs.
