I've been sitting on it all afternoon - while sewing, watching tv etc - and it is so comfortable, definately so much better for me than the usual shape and almost as good as my old palissee. Some don't agree, but I find comfort at prayer a very valuable think, so much easier to pray when youre not in pain!

Is there any chance they won't let you use this prayer stool at Notting Hill?

There is a theorectical possibility, but the priority in posture in prayer is comfort. Some have padded stools, ther sit rather thak kneel and others pray horizontally! I will ask her when I next email.

Whew, that's good! It sounds like others already do not use the traditional Carmelite stool, so if you use it you won't be doing anything unusual.

Linnie, thanks for asking the question. I was googling it halfway down the first page and then I decided to ask and I saw that you had asked.

I like to pray horizontally, but the last time I did that at a cathedral I got in trouble! :hehe2: Seems the only place where it was acceptable was FUS :blush:.
