- Where is Visionary BG based?
- The studio is in Atlanta, Georgia. Benches are hand-built in-studio and shipped from Atlanta across the United States.
- What is a meditation bench?
- A meditation bench is a small, low wooden seat used for kneeling or seiza posture meditation. It removes pressure from the ankles and lower back and gives a stable, repeatable place for daily practice.
- What is Activation by Visionary BG?
- Activation is the music project of Visionary BG. The records are vocal works built around held tones and repetition, made to be sat with rather than played as background.
- Can I commission a custom meditation bench?
- Yes. Custom commissions begin with a 30 minute consultation, take roughly four to six weeks to build, and require a 50 percent deposit. Start a commission from the Meditate page.

Go within. Our power is within.
