Zafu's have been used for meditation since the early 1900s. Used for cross-legged and kneeling postures. The curved edges allow your legs to drop off the edges at the hip joints so that your knees are lower than your hips, which makes it easier for your spine to maintain its natural curves. The height of a zafu cushion makes traditional sitting positions easier and more stable.
