Release tension you didn't know you were holding. Find a comfortable position, then press start.

How and why it works

A body scan moves your attention slowly from head to toe, noticing sensations without trying to change them.

Stress often shows up as tight shoulders, a clenched jaw or a knotted stomach. Noticing it is the first step to letting it go.

Questions people ask

Can a body scan really work in one minute?

A short scan won't fix everything, but it can interrupt a stress spiral and help you notice what your body needs.

What if my mind wanders?

That's normal. Gently come back to the next part of your body.

Is a body scan good before sleep?

Yes, many people use a longer body scan to wind down at night.
