    93,

    I have been practicing Asana for quite some time now.
    This along with a simple mindfulness of breath.

    A few days ago an interesting phenomenon occurred about 20 minutes
    into my practice. My breath seemed to fill my body with a strong energy
    similar to invocation or some sort of bliss. This was mostly on my exhalations.

    After I stopped due to a body break I felt a strong feeling of energy in my neck.
    This energy feels like its radiating through my whole body and over the last few days
    feels more centered around the middle of my back. It's actually making me feel quite
    uneasy at times and definitely is having its peaks.

    I guess I am looking to see how others have dealt with stuff like this. I am not claiming
    a true kundalini awakening but its intensity has left me feeling unprepared.

    93/93

    At the very least I wanted to put my story out there incase I dont make it ! 😆

    I have no idea whose teachings of Raja or Kundalini or Mindfulness you are researching, so I hope I'm safe in saying "Keep doing what you're doing" and hold back... hold back... ever to more... hold back... (Lurk! Withdraw! Upon them!) and keep practicing.

    Yes. I've felt a variety of experiences in my researches too, and in Raja similar to yours and at that time it was simply "not this, not this, not this" and keep going.

    Takamba gave excellent advice. Keep doing what you're doing, and don't lust for result.

    Good attitude. I mean that! 😉

    I admit this may be tangential, however,
    the thought I had
    (beyond <insert progression here> Takamba's comment)
    is:
    "it's your snake dude"

    You feed it, you care for it, you nurture it.
    I am some ape making weird gestures
    in an attempt to respond to your weird gestures
    all of which can be quite normal
    [in-aim, in-sane,
    all the same ?]
