Every time I start to meditate both arms shoot out horizontally with the first finger touching the thumb, my head spins from side to side and I vocally (out loud) utter the same 16 syllable phrase (which isn't English), then my whole torso shakes quite vigorously and for about 5 seconds my breathing becomes very rapid. This happens every time I start to meditate. After 3 or 4 minutes I call it a day.As you can imagine this is not a very enjoyable experience. Can anyone advise how to deal with this phenomenon ?
Between practices session, doing some grounding (exercise, walking) is a good idea. Also at times things like massage or acupuncture or some other form of energy healing helps dissolve the blocks that are causing these movements.
And doing some asanas (or just a good stretch) before starting meditation, helps smooth things out as well.
