A body scan can help us calm the body and prepare for a restful night's sleep. With this practice, you'll be able to bring a kind attention to different areas of the body and be present with whatever sensations arise. It's human nature to grasp towards pleasant sensations and resist unpleasant ones. For this practice can we be with and accept all that arises? Sleep is an important part of being healthy. After a busy day when our head meets the pillow, our brain may start processing everything that happened. This practice helps us to let go of the thoughts and come into the body to find the relaxation we deserve. Christine's intention with this body scan is to support you in your daily practice and gently guide you in being present with your body to cultivate calm and a restful night's sleep.
