Seeking and Finding Wholeness

What is that tingling, electric, goosebumps-y sensation that some experience?

In this blog entry I talk about my experience with this sensation. This is not a new sensation but I recently experienced it in abundance.

Throughout my life I had felt tingling waves that went inside of my body and spread on the surface of my skin while meditating or praying, especially when in deep relaxation or concentration. When this sensation is on the surface it is accompanied by goose bumps that swarm the skin and traverse the body in waves. When inside the body, this sensation is like a cloud of charged tingling particles. I found it possible to direct this cloud of sensation with concentration. Does this sound familiar?

In the Past:

I felt this sensation for a very long time, ever since I was a teenager (when I used to experiment with unguided meditation accompanied by Christian prayer). I remember directing this sensation towards spots in my body that were in need of healing on some occasions.

As a teenager, with little knowledge or direction, I discovered this ’sensation’ on my own; it was not intense though; I had an inkling that it was a healing force. However, I always doubted and questioned everything that could not be measured scientifically; as it is, even after I read that this sensation was known as the ‘life force’ I was never a 100% sure that it was. I always exclaimed that feeling something doesn’t make it exist in a physical reality.

Recently

While at my first physical therapy session, I did 20 minutes of guided imagery meditation (Used: Relaxation & Wellness by Belleruth Naparstek – purchased from Health Journeys). This tingling feeling got generated inside of me with each deep breath, I was not expecting it; I was a little surprised when I felt this sensation. However it manifested in me and was more intense than I had ever experienced before. I also enjoyed this feeling because I felt a sense of relief and familiarity, it felt very well.

Interestingly, this sensation lasted even after the session was over; as I took in a deep breath it would increase and seemingly circumvent my body. It slowly dissipated as I got distracted by life.

What is This Sensation?

This is the life energy or the life force that manifests inside of every person. Some have never felt it, in fact they just are not aware of its presence. Every person is capable of feeling and amplifying this sensation.

Scientific Proof of Life Force

Let’s keep this simple and clear. As of today:

• The Sensation: I cannot say this sensation is anything else but a sensation. Sensations like smell, sight and touch are actually exist in the brain. Every person’s brain interprets senses differently. Every smell or image you see are actually interpreted electrical pulses in your brain. Human sensations are not accurate measure nor are they a scientific proof of the existence of something. We got to measure this sensation with equipment in order to proof its existence scientifically. I do not have such tools.
• The energy: I cannot prove this sensation is a measurable energy, whether it is static electricity, human cell electricity, cold electricity, life energy, the holy ghost or anything other kind of energy. I lack the tools needed for a measurement.

I can sense these things, every scientific observation is a result of sensing whether it is seeing, smelling, reading results off a monitor, we rely on senses all the time even in science.

What I Can Proof

• I know that this sensation relaxes me, refreshes me, and clears my mind
• I know that experiencing this sensation dissipates my migraine headaches
• I can feel my headache disappearing
• I can see goosebumps on my skin

In summary, I know that this is a sensation that I can feel, I know it works for me and reliefs my headaches, so I can argue that it is real to me and delivers real outcome.

Have you Ever Felt this Sensation?
