Irritation after sadhana
« on: January 19, 2009, 06:35:18 AM »
Hey guys

This has been a recurring problem for me for a few years. I can't say how often it happens...maybe 1 out of 20 sessions...

After a session, regardles of rest time, I feel irritable. Psychologically I'm fine, but my body seems irritated. I cant really explain it...it's like feeling uncomfortable in my own skin. Maybe too much energy up top.

Any good practices for this? It does not feel like a kundalini thing or anything like that. Just unjustified irritation.

Im gonna try and eat a heavy meal, see if that helps :-)

Less practices.  I'd say if this is happening approx every 20 sessions, then you are pretty close to well balanced, but if it is still happening I would drop 5 mins of SBP for the next 20 sessions and see if that makes a difference.  Less is more I keep hearing[;)]

Love,

Hi Anthony

This is usually caused by not resting long enough after practices.
 Make sure you have at least 5 minutes rest when you have finished your practices, more if you can.

I didn't have a good rest. The whole time I was doing yoga and resting there was a very loud piledriving going on at a bridge construction site...and i gotta admit no matter how hard i tried i got a bit irritated! didnt make for a great rest,

i ate a pretty big lunch and it seemed to help

Sounds to me like this is some housecleaning going on at the level of heart chakra.

Get a hold of some Green Aventurine.  This stone seems to smooth outthe energy that gets stuck in the heart and brings you back to a state of peace.  Takes about 20 minutes to feel the irritation being absorbed by the stone.

serious.

Hi Anthony.  I've had this same irritability experience from a couple of reasons. First, being interrupted loudly and unexpectedly during meditation, and also, as Richard said,  not enough rest after meditation.
