Lesson Overview

21.05 – Body Scans: Learning to Check In With Yourself A body scan is a simple way to bring your awareness back into the present moment by noticing physical sensations from head to toe. When stress pulls your attention everywhere, scanning helps you slow down and reconnect with how your body truly feels. Start by focusing on your breath, then gently notice tension in areas like your shoulders, jaw, or chest. Don’t judge—just observe and breathe through it. This habit teaches your brain to recognize early signs of fatigue or anxiety before they grow stronger. Regular practice builds self-trust and calmness by proving you can sense and release discomfort. Body scans turn awareness into action by helping you respond with rest, stretching, or compassion. The more often you check in, the easier it becomes to feel balanced and emotionally steady throughout the day.
