Spinning Expirience?

4 posts in this topic

Hey guys. I have just watched part 3 of Leo's enlightenment videos, and I was watching it in my bed, lying on my back. It worked out quite well for some time, I got more and more relaxed and it felt like a really nice and calm meditation. Until at some point there was this weird sensation of spinning, like everything, including me, rotated clockwise. Every few seconds the rotation stopped and became a wobble, just to continue even faster. It became so bad that I was really afraid that something was wrong, that I might die if I'd continue on to just let it happen. I didn't even hear Leo's voice anymore until I opened my eyes. The spinning was still there, but more subtle, and I remember I could feel it especially in my legs. The sensation in my arms was strange aswell, it felt like there was a weird layer of warmth around them and as if my skin was kind of fluffying up. 

I don't know if I'm doing it wrong, because I was definitely afraid and not calm at all towards the end. My eyes even filled up with tears before the spinning started, and I have no idea why.

 

Did anyone expirience something similar, or is my brain just malfunctioning?

Don't worry about it.  If it keeps happening go get yourself checked out by your doctor.

But what will I tell them? "I get weird spinning sensations when I try to enlighten myself." D:

@Scholar All kind of experience can happen in meditation, what you need to do is keep your intention and forget the distractions.
