Unlocking Wellness: The Impact of Body Scan Meditation on Stress Reduction and Healing

You will notice body scanning is a pretty common call in practices like Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy and some forms of yoga. The intention is to release tension and also help us anchor ourselves so we can feel more grounded and ultimately, open up a space for relaxed awareness. Researchers found that mindfulness training has multiple biological effects on emotional and physical health, can be effectively implemented in the workplace, and can impact psychological and emotional health during stressful situations.
