Rejuvenate with a 20-Minute Body Scan Meditation
Just lie down somewhere quiet and comfortable and enjoy it!
Ever feel like your mind is constantly buzzing from all that screen time? Morven Hamilton's latest episode on the 'Yoga by Nature Podcast' might be just what you need. This 20-minute body scan meditation is designed to bring you back into your body and refresh your senses. It's not your typical relaxation exercise, but it’s incredibly soothing and can even substitute for a quick nap.
Imagine lying down in a quiet spot, feeling the support of the earth beneath you, and gradually tuning into each part of your body, from your toes to the crown of your head. Whether you're at home or sneaking in some zen during your lunch break, this meditation is versatile enough to fit into any part of your day.
Morven guides you through each step, encouraging you to acknowledge any sensations you feel, helping you become more attuned to your body's needs. This practice isn't just about relaxation; it's about building body awareness, which is crucial for any yoga practice. It can also help lower blood pressure, reduce anxiety, and even assist those dealing with chronic pain or illness. Morven also touches on how to incorporate yoga nidra into your routine for added benefits.
Plus, if you're a cancer survivor, her Healing the Whole Person/yogaThrive program offers specialized classes recorded live in group sessions, providing a supportive community feel. So why not take 20 minutes out of your day to reconnect with yourself? This episode promises to leave you feeling refreshed and more in tune with your body.
