A Heartful Body Scan Meditation, with Sean Fargo

Mindfulness Exercises

A body scan meditation can be deeply relaxing, but relaxation is not the goal of mindfulness. Instead, mindfulness expands our capacity to be present with what is, whether or not what we experience is wanted. 

When our mindfulness is imbued with a tender, caring, heartfulness, we’re capable of presence with that which may be uncomfortable or challenging. Paradoxically, lovingly accepting all that we experience often results in greater relaxation.

In this guided meditation, Sean Fargo, the founder of Mindfulness Exercises, guides us through a mindful body scan. The practice emphasizes allowing for whatever we observe, as we apply a gentle heartfulness to our experience. 

Please listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Practice with eyes opened or closed, in a posture that balances comfort with alertness. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey.
