This chair was designed for people who love to sit crossed legged

Are you one of those people who can’t sit still and need to have their feet up? Well there’s a chair that’s designed especially for you.

Sitting crossed legged is very common in Asian countries. Some people say that sitting crossed legged while doing their work helps them to think better because it’s more comfortable. However, sitting the wrong way will give you numbness and poor posture. Fortunately, the invention of the Soul Seat addresses those problems. This office chair lets you sit in different positions as you like, without the restriction of a backrest. It is a two layered chair, with the first to sit on and the second layer just for your legs.

We can’t deny the benefits of sitting crossed legged. In yoga, this sitting position is important for breathing and meditation practice. This is also part of Buddhism and Hindu traditions where they called it Lotus position or Padsamana. In the Philippines, it’s part of our life as well, if we are not seated crossed legged, we do “Dekwatro.

Sitting crossed legged in a right way will help your body posture and blood circulation, that will surely help you to do your work more effectively. But don’t forget that you have to stretch your legs or switch up your position every 30 mins to avoid numbness.
