A rest component (14), (16) for an article of furniture (10) includes a body member (32) defining a plurality of surfaces (34). A cover member (36) is carried by at least one surface (34) of the body member (32) to define a pocket (38) associated with the at least one surface (34), the pocket (38) defining a mouth to enable a user to gain access to an interior of the pocket (38). At least one passage (24) is defined by at least one of the body member (32) and the cover member (36) and opening out into the pocket (38). The passage (24) is configured to accommodate an elongate element which extends through the passage to exit from an operatively bottom region of the body member.

An article of furniture (10) includes a platform (12). A seat base (14) is mounted to the platform (12) to leave at least a part (16) of the platform (12) not covered by the seat base (14). At least one rest (20) is displaceably mounted relative to the platform (12) to enable access to be gained at least to that part (16) of the platform (12) not covered by the seat base (14). An attaching mechanism (22) is carried by the part (16) of the platform (12) for displaceably attaching the at least one rest (20) to the platform (12).

This Invention is designed to provide relaxation and sound healing properties to person while they practice seated meditation on a low profile and portable platform. The platform can play stereo sounds while transferring the sounds resonant vibrations to the user via direct contact to the platforms top surface. This is achieved by a combination of any top surface material capable of resonating such as wood or slate, which is also capable of supporting the user and the use of powered sound exciters designed for the sole purpose of producing sound via connection to such a surface. This platform is primarily designed to enhance the practice of meditation to help reduce stress and create a deep sense of relaxation peace and well being.

A vehicle seat includes a pad configured to support a body of a seated occupant.
