Body scan meditation is a type of mindfulness meditation that enables one to come to terms with the various sensations and understand how they influence their emotions. Body scan meditation involves mentally scanning the body slowly from head to toe, identifying feelings such as anxiety, stress, pain, and discomfort on specific body parts. This practice enhances body relaxation and self-awareness, leading to physical and mental health.

Welcome to Today’s episode, where I will share a guided

meditation on self-love. It is easy for one to get lost in negative thoughts

significantly linked to feelings of nothingness and unworthy of love.

Practicing self-love meditation can go a long way to block any unnecessary negative

thoughts and enhance one’s esteem and belief that they are worthy of all great

things in the universe.
