For about 4 days straight ive done 100-200 repetitions of the LAM mantra, and have subsequently developed these headaches that happen every 15-20 seconds, around my neck and sides of my head. I was told this was an energy blockage. I have refrained from doing more than 100 LAM repetitions as a result because i’m afraid of what will happen. And also is that an energy blockage? or something else?
Any help would be appreciated
Try some light yoga or progressive relaxation before your mantra practice. Energy blockages are most often caused by tension and tight muscles. Energy flows best through a relaxed body.
The pain can be the energy trying to push through the blockages. What you don’t want is it to go sideways around the block. If you put your mind to the point next in line that can help it flush through.
There’s a couple of books that train you to focus on and dissolve block directly that work really well for me - you only need the first one to start with…
Next in line as in meditate on the sacral chakra?
The next one up is up the spine. I would look at Ming Men, you could look at whatever chakra is next in the central column instead of the meridian. I would suggest directing it up the meridian is safer.
I would do some tapping on your body to help opening up meridians and energy flow.
For headaches aromatheraphy can help - you could use oils which helps chakras too.
