A body scan relaxation to help release physical tension and quieten your mind. A great practice for any time of the day but it can be particularly helpful to settle down at the end of the evening to encourage a great night's sleep.

This is a body scan meditation. Best practice lying on your back. So as you lower yourself down onto your back you can be on your bed or on the floor. It doesn't really matter. But as long as you feel really comfortable and able to relax completely. Have a wriggle around of your shoulders. Get them nicely underneath your body. The same with your hips and buttocks. Just giving your lower back some support. Maybe needing your knees propped up if that helps your lower back. Really just finding a space that you can relax in. Let your eyes close down. Take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth. Another deep breath in through your nose. Out through your mouth. Keep breathing in through your nose. One more.
