- They are nice and portable

If you are short in money and want a good economical option, this can be your best choice:
This economy meditation bench is made from durable poplar wood, with a clear finish. The bench is handmade by Laughing Buddha Trading.
The bench is ideal for the less flexible meditator, and takes most of the weight off of the knees, although it’s still advisable to have some form of padding on the floor (even just a folded blanket) for added protection.

And to finish, you will need a good cushion that fits that new stool of yours:
- Meditate in comfort!
- Seven by eighteen inch cushion for meditation bench
- Two and a half inches thick
- Covered with cotton twill
- Filled with dense cotton batting
Made specially for Laughing Buddha Trading, this cushion is designed to fit all of our meditation benches. It is designed to be slightly larger than the bench to prevent the edges from cutting into your legs. It fits very tightly to the bench with two velcro straps. No slipping!

A meditation timer is a great tool to develop the habit of meditation, adding it to your meditation tools can be a great way to become a great meditator.
As with everything worth your effort it requires a way to learn how to convert it into a habit, and doing it on periodic frames of time can be of great help.
That’s why a meditation timer can make all the difference. Let’s see some of the benefits of timing your meditation:
Helps you to get the habit: defining an exact time for meditation can be of great help, this helps you to commit to your practice at least for that period of time. With a timer you can decide how long will be your session and commit to not open your eyes until the timer sounds.
Helps you to explore more: sometimes you can choose not to finish after your allocated time. For example you decide to meditate for 15 minutes, but when the timer sounds, you decide to meditate for an additional 15 minutes.
You can program your timer so it sounds every 15 minutes, it can be a short beep so it doesn’t distract you. On the long term this can help you to extend your practice effortless.
You can know for how long you have been meditating: sometimes when I was meditating and I knew I have been meditating for a long time, I certainly wanted to know how much time was left. This used to distract me a lot.
When I started using a meditation timer I could program certaing intervals, so I could know for how long I have been meditating, this gave me a way to stop distraction on my wandering mind.
You can practice several meditation techniques: some meditation techniques combine different sets of techniques, for example with the one I practice, I start with some minutes of consciousness of the breath, then do some minutes of consciousness of the body and finish with loving kindness meditation.
With a timer, I can swiftly pass trough the three meditation techniques without interruptions, which gives me a much more deeper experience. If your meditation technique is similar, a meditation timer can be of great help.
A timer can help you to schedule your time: if you are a yoga practitioner, you can start with your asanas and pranayama and then move swiftly to meditation. It can help you to keep focus on your tasks, making you more efficient.
You can use the timer for other stuff: a timer always come at handy for scheduling your time. You can combine it with the time management process of your preference and make more of your day.
Ok, and now for some options, I’m giving the cheap one and the not so cheap but best, you can choose the best for you, anyway they are going to help you:
- Gentle chimes sound to alert you when your timing period is finished.
- Volume control wheel allows you to turn the sound all the way down to silence.
- Automatic reset function.
- Can be used as a stopwatch too.
- Stand / clip / magnet back.

And for the better option:
- Visually communicates the passing of time with the Enso Ring
- Creates a soothing sound that gently awakens or alerts you
- 12- or 24-hour capable clock that is perfect for travel
- Convenient zipper carrying case included
- Lighweight and highly portable

thegic.org Within the center of this magnificent 888 Quantum Christ Portal energy lives a deep Ancient Wisdom and Truth. Doorways of the past and future beckon one to enter and see through the Eye of Thoth. The pyramid power within each 888 instruction is powerful and exact. It invites one to enter and sit within the Kings chamber of self to receive teachings of time immortal. Time doors were activated.
