Tingling Goosebumps Equals Life Energy
What is that tingling, electric, goosebumps-y sensation that some experience?
Goosebumps
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?
How did it feel to you, was it electric, tingling, goosebumps, cold, warm??
If you haven’t that is fine.. In my future articles I will show you how easy it is to be aware of this life energy inside of you.
Did you enjoy this article?
I have also felt this for as long as I can remember. It really is nice to know there are others that have this phenomenon happen to them as well. The only thing is lately, this feeling has been getting stronger. I have been able to turn it on and off for a long time now, but recently, it gets so strong it hurts. I feel as if I am going to explode but don’t know how to release it…and even if I knew how, I would want to. I see that many people can turn it on and off, move it around, and even do some cool little tricks…but what about beyond that…I need some help…
Thanks for joining the rest of us here
Do you experience any visible goosebumps?
Do you experience shaking?
When you feel like exploding does that lead to a burst of shaking like what cats or dogs do to dry themselves up?

Hey! I have been in search for an answer of this for years and years!!!
I am 17 years old and would really love to find the answer!
I believe it may have something to do with the raise in vibrations in one’s chakras; however, I am still not sure…
I can make the sensation get stronger and stronger and stronger!!! But I know EXACTLY what you are talking about and would love to talk to you more about this because I have not found anybody else that knows what it is!

Unfortunately it seems these energy-pulses can trigger even stronger energies. Which is the called “Pranotthana”: Intensified upward rising energy, which can be very dangerous when it starts. It naturally gives higher states of awareness, transcendent states and different/higher levels of conscious and self-consciousness. A warning here. I triggered strong energies by doing this pulsing thing and I afterwards had acute anxiety and panic attacks as a result of the new states of consciousness. “Pranotthana” is the pre-kundalini awakening and kundalini is an even stronger energy, and enormous heat that can fry the nervous system. Kundalini is able to cause permanent insanity and persistent psychosis-like states. So heed my warning, I learned the hard way. This pulsing thing started my awakening of stronger energies and it can be very much suffering and fear as a result of the altered perception and inner world that you will bbe drawn inwards to. I have struggled with this “Pranotthana” for now 7 months and I have been through unbearable suffering, although times of more peace and bliss as well. But this thing you are all doing.. I regret doing it after 7 months of panic and severe anxiety. So please stop this and instead stop it, or atleast don’t overuse it, as it can awaken enormous energies, that may give you temporary depersonalisation and mental anguish because the “Pranotthana” and then Kundalini makes you into a human vehicle of an unexpected and premature painful awakening process. That is what I learnt.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you all. This can have unpredictable results. Strong energies needs grounding and when the energy going straight up to the head you might experience hell as I did. Personally not worth the chance in my experience, but done is done and it’s too late to regret it.
Any questions are welcome. Feel free to mail me if you want to hear more.

The reason why you get relief from your headaches is that there is a release of endorphins; the body’s natural pain killers. They are those chemicals that give people the so called runner’s high.

Adam, when I was your age I also felt this sensation.. I forgot all about it as yrs went by, then I felt it again. MANY do not know what this is even after I describe it, I am often surprised how so many just have not felt this. Just sent you an email.

@Doug
Thanks!
I can do this, I have done it since as long as I can remember, but its definitely not this life energy you talk of, its limited control your lymbic system
I know I’ve done this at least 15 years.
