Handling Intense Body Movements During Meditation

When I meditate and rest as being, my body shakes intensely with sounds in my skull. Sometimes it’s so strong I could fall off my chair. This has been going on for two years. What suggestions do you have? Rupert says: ‘You’re a very passionate, intense character . . . there’s tension and trauma held in your body as a result of your past experience. And now you are spending these long periods of time meditating. So your body is beginning to relax and unwind . . . in doing so, as it releases its stored up energies and tensions, it’s releasing them with these movements . . . if you start having these experiences when you are meditating and you are hurting yourself . . . I would stop meditating or certainly open your eyes or keep meditating, but go for a walk . . . I would recommend a gentle yoga practice . . . Yin yoga, very slow . . . contemplative yoga practice.’
