6. Body Scan

The purpose of this exercise is simply to notice your body. It is not necessarily about relaxing your body, however this may well occur. Usually, our response to bodily pain or discomfort is to distract ourselves or try to numb the pain. In this exercise you will accept and notice with gentle curiosity your body in its comfort and discomfort.
