Pins and needles and cramping from meditation - Crazy intense

[Agua del Cielo]

Do the emotions behind the blockage come flooding out when the blockage dissolves? My lips did cramp today, I looked like this strange animal human.

It doesn't feel dangerous but its the most intense bodily sensation I've ever experienced. How many of these mechanisms have you cleared inside yourself?

At some point, when the blockage dissolves, the emotions come flooding out, yes.

As to how many mechanisms i found, this is not easy to answer.
To answer shortly, i would say, the "tetany" didnt occur anymore after i have done it maybe twenty times, across maybe 1 1/2 years.

The longer answer would be:
To me it occured when i did "hyperventilation breathing" pretty fast and pretty deep breaths, like one or two deep breaths per second.
I used this technique only occasionally.
In normal holotropic breathing or other deepened and sped up breathing techniques, i did not experience this.

There are many factors involved:
i am using a variety of techniques, also various breathing techniques, so it is difficult to tell, which exactly caused the change. i think it's the combination.
Many issues are deeply interconnected, so it's a long term work, speaking of years and decades!
If you re approaching deep trauma, it simply cannot be dissolved in one session, even with the combination of various means, therapy, meditation, breathing techniques and utilizing "substances", the energy is so overwhelmingly strong, it is not possible to experience this in one session, the Energy would kill you physically.
With Deep Trauma, i had to "descend" into this pain for maybe 20 times and still not completely healed (Talking about ONE issue here). the Energy involved in trauma is beyond Description and beyond imagination.
It has to be "divided" into smaller portions.

Also, there Need to be breaks in between, for regeneration!
These breathing techniques not only have an immediate effect, but also a long term effect.
This means, emotional can arise also a few days later, not in the context of the exercise anymore.
So i would suggest taking a day or more off and see how one can handle it!

Additionally, when you the doors to a traumatic experience, a healing INITIATION happens.
It usually is not completely healed.
The Doors are Open now and you made the initial experience that you can in fact survive this.
Usually much related difficult emotions will surface in the upcoming weeks!
This requires a lot of stability to handle.

I would advise to take it slowly at first and observe it for some time, before you intensify the practice, otherwise it could really knock you down!
Admittedly i Never followed that advise, so it knocked me down a couple of times really bad
It usually took a month to recover...
