Self-Body Scan
Blessing Our Bodies
from DailOM.com
As the living vehicles for our spirits, our bodies deserve loving
attention and care. We can positively affect our health, prevent
illness, and heal injuries by regularly focusing our mental and
spiritual energy on the workings of our bodies. This can be done by
performing a body scan on yourself.
Begin by lying in a comfortable position and taking three deep
cleansing breaths. Imagine, if you will, a sunbeam entering the top of
your head. Feel this light slowly scanning each part of your internal
body. Allow it to scan every cell in your body and keep breathing.
Every time you exhale, blow out negative energy you may feel. Notice
any changes in your body. Sensations may vary from person to person.
You may feel a shift in body temperature, see a color or flash of
light, or hear a voice offering you guidance. If you feel a block in a
certain area of your body, sit with that block and feel into it. Ask
your body why that block is there and what you need to do to release
it. Try not to judge or analyze the wisdom that comes to you. Often, we
experience energy blocks in our body because our body is trying to tell
us something. You may want to breathe into that area until you feel the
block dissolving. When you have finished your scan, take one last deep
breath and exhal! e any energetic residue that you are ready to
release.
The body doesn’t lie, and it has much wisdom to share with us. Any
injuries or blocks that exist in our bodies are there so that we can
learn from having them in our bodies. An existing injury can teach us
to slow down or help us recognize that something is out of balance in
our bodies. The more you scan your body, the better you will become at
it. If you sense that something is not right in your body, you may want
to visit a doctor and tell them about your experience. When you have
finished your scan, don’t forget to thank your wonderful, amazing body.
