Body Scan Meditation
Learn a self-guided body scan that moves attention through physical sensations, notices tension without judgment, and can be adapted to a comfortable pace.
How the practice works
Bring attention through the body in a chosen order, noticing warmth, pressure, contact, or tension without needing to change any sensation.
A gentle starting sequence
Begin with three natural breaths, notice your feet or hands for a minute, then move slowly through one area at a time. Shorten the scan or open your eyes whenever needed.
These self-guided practices are educational. Adjust or pause if they are uncomfortable and seek qualified support for health concerns.
