The Bodyscan meditation invites you to learn to pay attention in the present moment, non-judgmentally to the body and mind. The invitation is to move the spotlight of your attention around your body, holding each region centre-stage in non-judgmental awareness, until you have scanned the whole body. As you practice your will develop a capacity to pay sustained attention with a sense of curiosity and gentleness. You may become more aware of the in breath and the out breath and the sensations in the body. The body scan can be profoundly relaxing, but the intention is to be awake and aware, as it is easy to fall asleep. There is no right or wrong way to do a body scan there is only whatever shows up with you right here right now. Try to follow my guidance as best you can.
