Neck Cushion Himalaya

chattra Himalaya Neck Cushion is named in honor of the Himalayas, in Sanskrit Abode of the Snow. This massive 1500 mile long mountain range crosses India, Buthan, China, Nepal and Pakistan, profoundly shaping the climate and culture of the Indian subcontinent, with many of its peaks considered sacred in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.  India’s holy Ganges originates in the Himalayas:  Hinduism believes this most sacred of rivers was held safely in Lord Shiva’s hair then gently released so as not to disturb mother earth. 

Pigment printed in blue-gray-white; embroidery detail. Finished with illuminating orange, a color significant in Hindu, Buddhist and Sikh faiths, and festooned with a fun tassel like those seen on the camels of Rajasthan’s great Thar Desert. 100% cotton cover, liner and buckwheat hull fill. So lovely your practice will be inspired.

Supports the neck during meditation and restorative yoga.  Wonderful as gentle, comforting weight on your stomach, ankles or hands during savasana.
