Mindfulness Practice: Comforting Body Scan

This body scan practice is an extremely powerful and healing form of mindfulness meditation. It involves systematically sweeping through the body with the mind; bringing a gentle, kind and openhearted attention to its various regions in order to observe any sensations that are present. One of the core insights underlying this practice is that the body is always in the present moment. It is the mind that is constantly flitting back and forth between the past and the future. Therefore; by anchoring our attention to the body, we find ourselves in the present moment. We also realize that none of the sensations in our body are permanent. Rather, they arise and fall away constantly. This practice gives us a choice to simply be one with whatever is arising, instead of reacting to them.

Lovely, I especially appreciate the beginning and ending at the head. Your clear guidance without music allows softening and relaxation, thank you very much for sharing!🙏

A lovely body scan. Starting with the head was good for me, as well as ending with it. The Metta phrases at the end were a surprisingly delight and rounded off the experience perfectly.

I enjoyed this wonderful body scan meditation 🧘‍♀️ Thank you 🙏
