Hi there NIP - thank you for this thread, I am just beginning to look into this Kundalini thing as I Googled some of the sensations that I have been experiencing and the Kundalini rising seemed to crop up more and more.

I had Bells Palsy about 2 years ago now (stress related) and I took to using relaxation music, meditation material to help me sleep and calm my nerves. I did this most nights and I felt myself start to get a tickling circular feeling on my forehead and on occasion I would wake up with pins and needles feeling across my entire body - a bit unsettling I have to say.

I also get a strong sensation of a large S being drawn on my back as if by an invisible hand it can be light and ticklish sometimes and other times quite deep and intense/uncomfortable. This lasted for months at different times of the day, no matter what I was doing.. I also have had the feeling like my hair is being played with (it's actually doing it right now) sometimes very light and others really noticeable like an insect has landed on my head.

And (embarassingly) I also get a tingling (static electricity) type feeling on my testicles.. not unpleasant I have to say :)

Are these sensations typical of an awakening Kundalini? I assume it's connected to my meditation? Should I be doing anything in particular to encourage my Kundalini development? I have read that you shouldn't mess with this kind of thing as it can mess you up if you are not careful..

Any feedback comments welcome :)

Thanks again

B
