Bodyscan meditation is a mindfulness technique that involves systematically focusing attention on different parts of the body, starting at the feet and working up to the head. The practice is to bring attention to the sensation of each body part, without judgment, and to notice any tension, discomfort or ease. It is usually done lying down, but it can be done in a seated position as well. The goal of bodyscan meditation is to increase awareness of the body and release tension, and to promote relaxation and well-being. It can be used as a tool for managing stress, anxiety and insomnia.
