DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

As best illustrated inFIGS. 1 through 6, the bodily cushion assembly10generally comprises a pad12that has an outer edge14extending between each of a top surface16and a bottom surface18of the pad12. The pad12is positionable on a chair20. The bottom surface18of the pad12abuts the chair20. A top side22of the outer edge14of the pad12is positioned proximate an upper end24of a backrest26of the chair20. A bottom side28of the outer edge14of the pad12is positioned proximate a front end30of a seat32of the chair20. The chair20may be a reclining chair of any conventional design.

A plurality of bolsters34is provided. Each of the plurality of bolsters34has an outer wall36extending between each of a first end38and a second end40of each of the plurality of bolsters34. The outer wall36of each of the plurality of bolsters34is curvilinear. Each of the plurality of bolsters34has a cylindrical shape. Additionally, the plurality of bolsters34may each be comprised of a resiliently compressible material.

A first one42of the plurality of bolsters34is coupled to the top surface16of the pad12proximate a first lateral side44of the outer edge14of the pad12. The first bolster42extends between the top22and bottom28sides of the outer edge14of the pad12. A second one46of the plurality of bolsters34is coupled to the top surface16of the pad12proximate a second lateral side48of the outer edge14of the pad12. The second bolster46extends between the top22and bottom28sides of the outer edge14of the pad12.

A third one50of the plurality of bolsters34is coupled to the top surface16of the pad12proximate the top side22of the outer edge14of the pad12. The third bolster50extends between the first44and second48lateral sides of the outer edge14of the pad12. A user52sits on the top surface16of the pad12. Each of the first42and second46bolster retains the user's legs54and the user's arms56on the pad12.

The pad12and the plurality of bolsters34prevents the user52from developing bruises or sores while sitting in the chair20.
