Sensations in Meditation.

Quote.

When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.

Question:

Sometimes when I meditate I get a really ticklish sensation in my heart area–it simultaneously makes me want to laugh but there is also sense of anxiety or fear attached to it. If I keep sitting — I just feel like my heart has opened up & I feel a part of me is very vulnerable/scared but at the same time another part of me feels very soothed. What could this mean?

Response:

One can have almost any type of physical sensation during meditation in any area of the body. Because the mind and body are so closely connected, when the mind experiences more expansion in meditation, the body gains a deep enough state of rest to normalize any imbalances that may be stored in the body. The ticklish sensation in your heart just means that some normalization is occurring there allowing for a more full expression of your emotions. The sense of anxiety or fear is a by-product of that clearing process. Don’t give these sensations and feelings too much importance. It is a valuable process, but don’t focus on it, simply return to the meditation process.

Love,
Deepak

Sensations in Meditation.

Quote.

When your mind and heart are truly open abundance will flow to you effortlessly and easily.

Question:

During my meditation, my eyelids started tingling, then my eyebrows than I started feeling a point in my forehead like squeezing. Then my shoulders started to shake. Could you please tell me, what was that, and is it dangerous? My whole head was like stiff.

Response:

When our awareness contacts pure consciousness in meditation, even briefly in the space between two thoughts, there is an effect in the body as well. The places in the body that hold old tensions and stresses may respond with some movement, tingling, or other sensation as that tension is released. You don’t have to be concerned, just go back to your meditation. It is a healing response from the meditation, so it is positive and nothing to worry about. It will stop when that particular stress is finished releasing.

Love,

Deepak
