Short Body Scan Meditation

This meditation is inspired by Holstee's Wellness Guide.

Let's begin by finding a comfortable seated position with your feet on the ground and your hands resting gently in your lap.

Take a deep breath,

Maybe the deepest breath you've taken all day,

Into your nose and out through your mouth.

Relax your jaw and close your eyes if that feels okay.

Starting with the top of your head,

Begin to slowly scan through your body.

Notice how each part is feeling.

Notice your forehead,

Eyebrows,

And eyes.

With each breath,

Continue.

Notice your neck and shoulders.

Allow them to be soft.

Your chest,

Your arms,

Elbows,

Your hands resting in your lap.

Feel the weight of your body in the chair.

The tops of your legs,

Your knees,

Your feet against the ground.

Notice them without any judgment.

Breathe deeply and become aware of your whole body present in this moment.

Take as much time as you need and when you're ready,

Open your eyes and slowly begin to bring your awareness back into the room.
