Body Scan Meditation

In this guided Body Scan Meditation we bestow the amazing gift of gratitude upon our whole body to appreciate, nurture, restore and regenerate every cell of our being. This is more than a relaxation meditation, it offers an opportunity for healing on all levels.

There is much written about the impact of gratitude upon our mental and emotional health, but did you know that gratitude can be good for our physical health also?

“Studies have shown that being thankful can improve sleep, mood and immunity. Gratitude can also decrease depression, anxiety, difficulties with chronic pain and risk of disease.” Source: Can expressing gratitude improve your mental, physical health?

Expressing gratitude for our bodies does not come easy for many of us. We are programmed to criticise our imperfections: too fat, too thin, too wrinkly, too short, too tall, too old, greying and so forth. But how often do we stop to acknowledge what our bodies are doing for us each day? Sure, we may struggle with illness and aches and pains at times, yet our body does the best that it can. Just think for a moment about all that we put our bodies through, often with little or no appreciation! Each time we judge our body, we add greater weight to our own suffering.
