<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">This meditation practice is going to be a body scan. Body scan meditations involve paying attention to parts of the body in a gradual
sense from the head to feet. This helps us to bring awareness to every single body part and sensation without judgement - regardless of pain, tension, or general discomfort. Noticing sensations (like discomfort, pain, tightness, tension, heat, etc.) helps
you stay present and also allows you to connect your emotions to physical sensations you're experiencing. This can feel uncomfortable, awkward, insightful, and/or relaxing. Just try your best to stay in the moment and focus on the process. After a body scan
meditation, many people find themselves feeling more relaxed as they were able to relax the parts of the body that had tension even though the intention of the meditation is to only notice without any judgment toward yourself.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">Caution: While most meditations are safe, some meditations such as body scans can feel triggering for those who have experienced physical
or sexual assault. Please be aware of your experiences if you choose to participate. If you have any reactions to the body scan meditation, CAPS is available for you. Please reach us during office hours from 8am-5pm at (951) 827-5531, option 2 to speak with
a CAPS clinician, come to our office in the health services building, north wing near Lot 15, or speak with our after-hours crisis line by dialing (951) 827-5531 and pressing option 1.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
