#Body Scan Meditation

[babyspacebatclone]

I’ve been working on being more constructive with some meditation work after several months of extremely exhausting work due to limited staffing*.

I’m 40+ and self-diagnosed AuDHD, and I somewhat struggle with meditation products.

Because I started ad hocing stuff as a teenager out of pure survival, and a lot of “professional” stuff three decades later bore me because they don’t offer much I don’t already do.

Anyway…..

I created Body Scanning around 13 years old out of that survival necessity.

And now I wonder…

Is the fact I can influence my physical sensations at the drop of a beat, section by section, more due to experience or my Neurodivergence?

Because it feels like the latter, in a way that only makes sense if you have intuitive ND experiences but whatever…

Curious to get some data points about this.

Details below poll.

I’m really curious here largely because, while I suffer from the alexithymia and issues with interoception common in Autism, as I describe below manually changing how parts of my body feels through mindfulness is intuitive and almost instantaneous for me. And it doesn’t feel like a paradox - partially because these things not being automatic anyway, having manual override is easy?? 🤷‍♀️

A Body Scan is a basic meditation/mindfulness technique where you focus on specific parts of your body, assessing the sensations there. Typically it is performed as part of a relaxation script, where part of the intention is to release tension in the muscles as you scan: Starting with your face, you’re encouraged to relax your brows, unclench your jaw, etc.

When I perform a body scan, there is a distinct heavy warmth as I travel down each limp, distinct from the sensations of the parts of my body I haven’t targeted yet.

Here’s a link describing Body Scans from Cleveland Clinic, and an example meditation video.

I personally don’t like this vid, but all the body scans from channels I like are longer than 5 minutes and this was the best short one I found.

* I work at a daycare center, and the issue isn’t exactly hiring new people. It’s the fact 2 out of every 3 new hires don’t last two weeks, and half of the rest drive us nuts before leaving after only a few months.

Body Scan Meditation

Body scan meditation is a type of mindfulness meditation in which you focus your attention on different parts of your body, from your toes to your head. As you scan your body, you pay attention to any sensations you feel, such as itching, pain, or warmth. You may also focus on your breath and how it feels as it moves in and out of your body.

The goal of body scan meditation is to increase your awareness of your body and to help you relax. Although it may take some practice to master, body scan meditation can be a helpful tool for managing stress and anxiety.
