Body Scan & Somatic Awareness Meditation

We spend most of our day in our head. These practices bring us back down — into shoulders, belly, toes. You’ll learn how to notice tension without judgment, release what’s been held too long, and reconnect with the wisdom under your skin.

FAQ

What is a body scan?

It’s a meditation where you slowly bring awareness to each part of your body — from head to toe, or vice versa.

What is somatic meditation?

A body-centered approach that emphasizes felt experience — tension, warmth, heaviness, vibration — as the object of attention.

Can this help with anxiety or trauma?

Yes, but go slowly. Somatic practices can surface strong sensations — always stay within your window of tolerance.

What if I feel nothing?

That’s okay. Numbness is information too. Stay gentle, curious, and patient with your awareness.

Do I need to lie down for a body scan?

You can lie down or sit — choose what supports your body best for full presence without sleepiness.
