Weird jaw tension/cramping during meditation

[Federico del pueblo]

@flowboy Holy shit brother. 

I just now noticed that you heavily pimped your original posts with more tips and info!

Thank you so much!

Now there's a lot for me to contemplate. I need a few days to wrap my head around this. There's a lot I could do now.

I'll probably pm you these days about this.

Thanks for everything!  ???

I'm a dental hygienist and alot of people grind and clench their teeth throughout the day or night. It is called bruxism. This over-works the muscles and causes many problems especially jaw tension. 

See a dentist, a massage therapist, or learn to massage your jaw area at home. Learning about bruxism, it's triggers, and symptoms, and effects can also help you break the habit. Awareness/mindfulness also helps alot 

Bruxism causes alot of damage to the jaw joint and the teeth over time.
