This full body scan invites us to connect to our bodies with moment-by-moment awareness. I practice a body scan weekly as a way of checking in with my body. When done regularly, it helps us to cultivate attentiveness, compassion, and kindness toward our embodied selves. Try it and leave a comment to let me know what you think.

In this practice, we direct attention to different areas of the body, such as the feet and the breath, in order to train our minds to be present. When our mind wanders, we gently bring our attention back to the chosen focus. This is a foundational technique for meditation. Over time, it enhances our ability to stay present in and to bring calm into any moment.

This guided affirmation practice supports emotional and spiritual healing from harm that has been inflicted upon us or that we carry in our bodies from our family lineages. It reminds us of our capacity to heal and to release what does not serve us.
