Strong Tightening Feeling In Chest During Meditation

[Max_V]

For quite some time now during my 40 minute meditation sessions I sometimes get this very tight feeling in my chest. 

I've had a check on my heart and lungs done about 3 weeks ago so it shouldn't be anything with a physical root.

Any of you have experienced this too? Or know what this is?

 

Thanks for helping me out,

Max

Describe it a bit more.

@Max_V Could be you becoming aware of the blockages in your heart chakra. That is very common. Check out my shadow-work guide there is a breath-work section, try to utilize that.

@Martin123 I will do so!

@Shin When I feel stressed or in panic, I get this tingeling painful feeling on the left side of my chest. During meditation when I go deep or I get an insight, this feeling deepens and I feel light in my stomache too. It feels a bit like the start of a panic attack

Even though I know my heart is fine, when I have this feeling in my chest I still get so incredibly scared. I feel so disconnected and alone, like I'm going to die. I have had this since about 3 months now.
