Ripple Out

The Body Scan

A slow, guided journey down through the body, from the top of your head to the soles of your feet. As you move through it, notice what feels tight, and with each step allow each part to soften. Nothing needs to be solved right now. Just relax and follow the instructions.

Find somewhere quiet where you won't be disturbed for the next eight minutes. Sit or lie down comfortably, and when you feel ready, begin the scan.

 
Settle in. Let your eyes soften.
The scan is complete

Take your time here for a moment.

Notice how your body feels now, compared to when you began, and carry that ease with you.

If you feel the impulse to write anything down, do so. Return to the scan as often as you need to.
