Self-inflating travel meditation mat and pillow

Abstract

An inflatable meditation device comprising a combination of a mat or leg portion and a pillow or seat portion, wherein the mat and seat are individually inflatable and are removably connectable to form a travel mediation device with the seat portion being raised above the mat portion.

1 . A self-inflatable combination travel mat and meditation device comprising:
 a mat portion comprising:
 a mat geometry including an inflated mat height; 
 a mat nozzle for connecting to a pump for inflating the mat portion; and 
 a seat coupling mechanism; 
   a seat portion comprising:
 a seat geometry including an inflated seat height; 
 a seat nozzle for connecting to a pump for inflating the seat portion; and 
 a mat coupling mechanism configured to mate with the seat coupling mechanism to removably connect the mat portion to the seat portion; 
   wherein the inflated seat height is greater than the inflated mat height and wherein the difference in height of the inflated mat portion and inflated seat portion is in the range of about 3 inches to about 9 inches such that the seat portion is about the mat portion allowing a user to sit on the seat portion.   
     
     
         2 . The combination travel mat and meditation device of  claim 1  wherein each of the mat portion and the seat portion have a substantially similar length. 
     
     
         3 . The combination travel mat and meditation device of  claim 1  wherein the seat coupling mechanism and the mat coupling mechanism are snaps. 
     
     
         4 . The combination travel mat and meditation device of  claim 1  wherein the mat portion and the seat portion have a substantially similar width. 
     
     
         5 . The combination travel mat and meditation device of  claim 1  wherein the inflated height of the seat portion is about 5.5 inches larger than the inflated height of the mat portion. 
     
     
         6 . The combination travel mat and meditation device of  claim 5  wherein the seat coupling mechanisms are provided along the length of each of the seat portion and the mat portion for coupling the seat portion to the mat portion in parallel. 
     
     
         7 . A travel mediation device comprising a combination of a mat and a seat, wherein the mat and the seat are individually inflatable pieces and wherein the mat and the seat are removably connectable to one another to form the travel mediation device with the seat being adjacent to and taller than the mat portion. 
     
     
         8 . A kit for travel meditation, the kit comprising:
 a mat portion having an inflated mat height in the range of about 2 to about 4 inches, a coupling mechanism positioned along a length of the mat portion and a nozzle for inflating and deflating the mat portion;   a seat portion having an inflated seat height in the range of about 6 inches to about 10 inches, a coupling mechanism positioned along a length of the seat portion and the respective coupling mechanisms configured to secure to one another, a nozzle for inflating and deflating the seat portion;   an air pump coupleable to the nozzle for inflating and deflating the mat portion and coupleable to the nozzle for inflating and deflating the seat portion.
