The Body As It Is: A neutral body scan

This is a guided body scan that meets your body exactly as it is today. Unlike many body scans, this one does not assume sensation in every part; it makes room for numbness, absence, change, and quiet right alongside clear sensation so it’s accessible, whether or not you feel every part of your body. It invites a neutral, observing stance - not a loving, grateful, or compassionate one - allowing you to watch from the steady part of you that remains constant through everything your body does or does not do. This practice is suitable for anyone but was specifically developed with people living with SCI, limb loss, chronic pain, or other changes in mind.
