    • preferable to do a shorter body scan every day than to do the full version just once or twice a week
    • find a time of day that works for you and set aside the time to do the body scan 
    • try to do it at the same time every day
    • no expectations: allow your experience to be what it is
    • complete the Body Scan Worksheet at least once
