Heart pain during meditation

[aklacor727]

When I meditate, the emotional pain I had been distracting myself from arises… I just try to stay present with it n allow and breathe. But if there’s something else I could be doing to help release whatever energy this is within me… I would love to hear suggestions and thoughts. Thank you

Has anyone else experienced this? 
it’s very intense every time I am present in myself….

Never had that, but is possible with the release of fears, anxiety and many other repressed emotions you are liberating with meditation that can happen. I am just wondering, never happened to me but I am sure there may be other who had experienced similar things.

A lot of times inner feelings manifest in the body as pain, etc...

Open up and relax, go with the intention of releasing the contracted energy. Both by effort as well as simply relaxing and expanding. Feel free to move your body as it wants to move, for energy work is good to let the body do its thing and we just trust the process

Kundalini yoga can help you, particularly search for heart chakra opening. Meditation still does it with time, but it's a bit slower in releasing the energetic dimension in comparison with yoga.

When you are supposed to meditate do this kriya. After finishing you can meditate for a little while if you feel like it or continue with your day. This will synergize with your meditation. Yogigems has many other videos for working with that energy, both for the heart as for other body areas. You will see that as you continue to practice probably the stomach will be the next for release, her videos will become handy again for that. Once there is a full round of body release, you may start working with kundalini through the whole body, it will come in rounds. Usually the head, then the heart and finally the stomach, you have opened the head via meditation now comes the heart and finally the guts, then again you will open the head and so on in rounds. This is very common and feels like dropping backpacks of stones when you get used to the process. Remember that your body will mature and evolve with you in this path.

Wish you the best, lots of love

@Davino OMG this is so helpful and makes so much sense now. I am definitely going to start doing the kundalini in addition to the meditation.. and I’m so excited that I know what to expect and that it will help so much with releasing. I can’t wait to feel lighter and happier within myself. Thank you!

@Davino so I just did it, and meditated for a little after, and I still feel the contraction but it’s already so much less intense!!! ❤️ I’m so happy

@aklacor727 So happy to heart that

When it comes to the heart, the release is usually emotional and feely.

When it comes to the guts, the release is visceral, primal and animal.

These areas of the body store a lot of trauma and energy over our lifetime. Meditation was bringing that up to consciousness for release but for the moment it can be too much undigested material in your biomemory to handle it via meditation. Know that after some full rounds (2years) you will be able to handle obstructions mostly via mediation and kundalini will be for the circulation of energy arround the body.

You will be guided step by step now that you have the tools. Trust the process and recognise this as a great sign that your meditation and spiritual path is working, so much so, that literally your physical vessel is being evolved and prepared to host higher consciousness as your baseline stage

@Davino this is the most encouraging thing ever ❤️

@aklacor727 I've been thinking and I remembered a few other things: taking half a tea spoon of triphala every night helped me to dissolve this energetic contractions from a new angle. To speed up this process I also decided to shift to a vegetarian diet, although now that this process is almost finished I'm slowly transitioning back to an omnivore diet. Pranayama and wim hoffman also became handy, martial arts as well, and psychedelics: particularly LSD and the 5meos. Wearing rudrakshas also helped me a lot.

So that would be all I have discovered about this topic for now. In case any other thing resonated with you
