This weekly post provides practical insight into recovery, sobriety, changing how we cope, connecting with our minds, bodies, and souls, and more. It could be any of the following: quote, podcast rec, coaching technique, or something else completely. This is a form of free support for you, dear friends! I hope this gives you even more care. <3

body scan meditation

My healing journey has been very dependent upon reconnecting to my body, and a body scan practice is one of my favorite tools to aid in this reconnection.

I especially like this body scan guided meditation. (It focuses on gratitude for, and lack of judgment toward, the body, which I really appreciate.)

This resource can also help you learn how to do a body scan.

My preference is to have someone else lead me through it, hence why I like the first resource. I even sometimes do this before bed, and it can help put me to sleep.

Even if this isn’t the right tool for you, I hope you find other life giving ways to connect with your body. <3
