Happens frequently for me with meditation. I always saw it as a good sign so its good to know it is 🥰
You have been the ONLY person on RUclips to do videos on every single thing I’ve experienced and I thank you
I spin and swoop and love the ride. It does feel like a carnival ride .
I’ve always said that to people ahah now I have the explanation
For me, opening the central channel and releasing the kundalini energy was just like an explosion. It happened unexpectedly during meditation. My whole body was paralyzed. Literally. It was a very painful process. Every organ, every part of my body ached. I was aware of what was happening to my body, but I couldn't move. I had completely lost control of my own body. It was shaking in convulsions and I could not control it. At the same time I was greeted by my spirit guide in astral projection. I had never experienced anything like this before. My brain split in two. Multitasking. One part was aware of what was happening down on the couch with my body, and the other was somewhere up in the astral, with other beings. It was a frightening and at the same time incredibly beautiful experience. While my body was dying down, my spirit was on holiday in heaven and my spirit guides took me to the source. It was very interesting that my other body up there, was not in any pain. It was happy. It felt only incredible love from all sides. I spoke to the source and got the answers I was looking for and it was explained to me that I was being treated and for that my whole body ached. I was literally operated on before my eyes. I watched from above as my body writhed helplessly while my spirit above conversed with the source. Unlocking my kundalini energy and activating my chakras was the most painful and at the same time the most powerful and wonderful experience. I know that I died and came back to life.
Thank you for the wonderful videos you make. They are priceless.
when i first started on my path , my spiritual teacher always told us not to allow the spinning and to stop it , she said it was us faking the spinning , so thankyou so much i am 6 years in and the spinning is getting stronger now i will embrace this feeling
Meditation is the center of the wheel that stands still.
I felt like I was bloody spinning when you described what it is like to feel like your spinning when you meditate lol clearly I'm highly impressionable 😂
😂😂
I am very new you Meditation although I work at a Retreat Center housekeeping past 2 years. My sister passed of Cancer this past March 3rd after only being diagnosed February 3rd and then my nephew passed April 3rd so I was spiraling into a very bad depression and threw desperately searching for Grief help videos I repeatedly was coming across Meditation so started with some beginner videos there were a few twist and turns that ended up scaring me so I backed away in fear of somehow getting brainwashed for lack of better phrasing but then was left feeling lost … anyway lol with all that rumbling being said (I apologize) I did start looking around again and Thankfully came across your page Ben I am so extremely grateful for this I feel completely “ safe “ following your advice and am going to sign up for the classes or however all of the offer goes shortly 😊. Thank You again for taking the time to share your knowledge 🙏🏻
Keep your head up bro❤️
So sorry for your loss of your sister and nephew. 🙏 . Great that you now want to explore meditation. Wish you luck on your new journey.
@@kev63inuk Thank you 🙏🏻
I usually see purple fractals, but I have seen geometrics. One of the most delightful experiences i had was taking my mother to see the Goyoto Monks. They do the chanting with 3 notes per throat/voice. When they were chanting, they were creating these multidimensional, gyroscope looking geometries that turned as they floated through the air! So awesome
Thank you for this video, I spin almost everytime I meditate
Thanks Ben, thats a comprehensive explanation and I experienced this phenomenon only yesterday.
During a busy day, waiting for an appointment, I had time to visit a beach and spent 30 minutes meditating.
I had a rare moment of " oneness" where I became the breeze, the sand, the sun. Even the sound of a parakeet flying across connected on a profound level. My physical presence disappeared and I was aware of a gently spinning energy.
What came as a realisation was that all of these elements were also myself, simultaineously.
I remained focussed and even more effective for the rest of the day.
Good luck with everything going forward 🙏
😱😱😱this info is pure gold. Thank you so much
Thank you for the video, Ben! I love that you draw and write, like in class, with colors and all. I guess it would cool if at some point you got ... a music stand? I don't know the word in english, you probably know what I mean!
Dude... Thank you sooo much for all of your informative videos. They've helped me a lot on my journey. I have been practicing laying down meditation for a about 7 months because of a reoccurring injury on my tailbone. Can't sit too well. But I have experienced the spinning multiple times and have just been breathing through it while reciting mantra in my head, tongue pressed into the nook above the of the top of my teeth and eyes closed but focused into my 3rd eye. I'm thankful you explained this. I feel like I can integrate the knowledge with pranayama before medotation sessions now that I know what is happening and what it is.
Thank you Ben. Namaste. Peace light and love to all.
I experience this and I love it. It’s so relaxing for me.
Kundalini causes a lot of twitching and pressure too. It moves around clearing the body of blocked energy which often brings up suppressed memories. Eventually, after you’ve worked with it for a while, it will work in tandem with secretions from the pineal and pituitary glands to expand your consciousness. Kundalini is a game changer in spiritual healing and growth. When mine awakened, I would wake at night and feel someone working at my back and then feel an electrical pulse shoot up my spine. The first time they worked at my lower back, the second behind the heart and the third in the neck. This happened early in my meditation practice. I was just starting. Then during Covid I had another awakening that was so intense I was doubling over in its intensity. It felt wonderful, but ‘too’ wonderful. And it was constant. No letting up. This lasted about an hour. My heart felt flooded with Source energy. I’m blessed in that I can communicate with my guides and was led how to work with this intense energy.
I feel that whoever it was that worked with my spine on those three occasions had muted or softened the awakening. And had they allowed this extreme kundalini awakening years earlier I couldn’t have endured it.
This is awesome, thanks for
Sharing 🙏
Thats your astral body spinning not the physical body, at that point of time your consciousness shifts from physical body to astral body and we feel very light and spinning and rotating
I have a question and I was hoping if someone could help me:
I started meditating about 2 years ago due to an LSD experience I had (totally immature), but which I actually ended up doing more because I liked it.
Once every few months, I get to a point in meditation where I lose the form of my body and start feeling a vibration growing stronger and stronger (it is a little different from the spinning sensation that Ben mentions, which I have experienced only twice under LSD), I feel like I’m a sky rocket preparing for launch but then my heart starts beating faster, I get hot, I sweat and all of a sudden I don’t feel that vibration anymore and my whole body just stays completely calm and neutral.
Some people have told me that is related to having my soul protecting me from going to the astral plane and find evil beings.
But other people have told me that it’s just that I am not prepared to even go there, that’s why I don’t … launch to the sky and beyond.
At this point I don’t even know if that is actually the point, but I’d like to get your opinion on this.
Thank you for reading this.
Same here. I too experienced it the same way.
It feels so good 😊
Recommendation: Ice cold water dip for face while meditating. So have a bucket with ice water (actual ice in it). When meditating for a while, you dip your face into the bucker. Something called "Diver's reflex" hits body and lowers blood pressure and heartbeat, calming things down a lot. Wipe face after a good dip and continue meditation. Any time stale just repeat the dip and you getting up from your seat to do it you just gain more peace.
Thanks for explaining. I don't have spinning, but when I meditate, I can feel the energy moving upward and my chin and head will lift up on its own for a moment then settle again. This happens multiple times during the meditation.
It happened to me two times while I was conducting group meditations. I was gettimg ready to read and clear their energies and this incredible sensation arrived. It was so strong that I almost felt falling from my chair 😂
It's super scary at first when you spin on all axis! Thank you for this info
I felt the spinning today during my meditation. It would not stop lol
Thank you, Ben. My body wants to rock side to side during meditation and I wondered if that isn’t good as you recommend that we keep our bodies still, but this video seems to say that the rocking is ok.
grateful to have found this video and I love your explanation!!!! I first experienced this while meditating on a rock by the ocean. The sensation continued regularly when meditating and doing yoga... until one day I did experience the energy with the most intense power shoot up central channel and open my heart with so much force I thought my heart was going to explode.. subsequent to this experience much transpired spiritually/ mystically. I am so grateful again for you and your teachings that I will continue to follow!!!!
I experienced this once. I felt like I was spinning and my partner helped me realize that every thought decenters me and so switching from thought to thought is the spinning of the mind, that’s just one part. Thanks for the video, it’s the only video I’ve seen talking about such a nuanced experience
Thanks for sharing. But the first times I experienced this I was awake, possibly watching tv or doing something trivial. When I asked some people if they had experienced that, they looked at me like weird. So I never asked again. Until I started to meditate I experience this more and it was the only thing that would release this sensation. But it confused me as in why it would happen while I was awake and in at random times. It wasn’t too often, maybe once every few years, but made me curious.
Thank you so much, I've always wondered about the spinning sensation during meditation.
Gratitude for explaining 🙏
When i.was a teenager i had dreams that i was spinning. Like my bellybutton was the axis and spinning parallel to the ground. At first ir was kinda cool but after awhile it started to scare me and in the dreams I would try to stop by putting my hands on floor or grabbing furniture in my room but i never could. This went on for 3yrs or so. And its funny, back then id never even heard of lucid dreaming. But in a way thats what i was doing.i learned that when i was in my 20s.
Thank you for explaining this, I used to get it when I went to a hypnotherapist.
It was too soon for me, I didn't know what was happening and I hated it. It doesn't happen anymore when I meditate or when I'm under hypnosis.
Thank you 🙏 I thought it was wired my Hole body moved in a spinning Way , quite much🙃Thank you❤
I felt spinning once I was so scared that I opened my eyes. And I was confused what was it, searched everywhere but found nothing. Thanks.
I felt like my body lifted, is not touching the ground. Then it tilted forward little bit and slowly started to spin in the void. Like a fan. And it is spinning faster and faster. So fast that I got scared.
Thank you so much for the info! I’ve been meditating for years and have searched for explanations on spinning and colors. Thanks for the info!
Great, practical guide. Subscribed.
Nicely observed
Thanks Ben
Thanks for answering my question in the last video with a video! X
One time while meditating, I opened my eyes slightly and saw an image on my computer screen warping out! It was freaky!
Thank you sooo much for explaining this sensation! 🙏
Spontaneous kundalini for me, no spiritual practices whatsoever. Very good support from an outstanding intuitive acupuncturist/naturopath/homeopath. It's been incredibly dangerous and very long, but as I planned before this incarnation. So much experienced and learnt that would not have been possible otherwise. ❤
its brutal isent it lol :)
I had those burts of energy during meditation and I was not sure if this is normal or did I just imagine it or somehow projected it. It came from the bottom of the spine upwards and was enormous. My body was litteraly shaking. Some intuition was telling me that I have to open my chakras from the bottom one to the top, one by one by sending my focus on those parts of my body. It was very subtle at the beggining but then it was turning into a huge burst. I will try to be more mindful to those energies going forward. Thank you for explaining this.
Do you practise Semen Retention?
Thank you Ben for your interesting explanation, all makes sense 👍 I have experienced spinning from time to time. Whilst meditating I see the capsule spinning and me with it, like the G Force pilots and astronauts training to test what they can withstand.
I appreciate your time, energy, and easy to understand teachings. So I'm an almost daily meditator now for the past year😘 but I wonder if this is why I also feel as if I'm turning to one side or like one of my arms are twisted??? I also use prana yam, mudras, and movement ..a kind of Kundalini meditation🤔😘Thank you🙏💕💖Always Love& Light
I’ve never had the spinning sensations. However when I do continuous breathing during meditation my hands slowly experience a combination of numbness, pins & needles, and stiffness with some pain. If I move my arms then the sensations slowly go away. Returning to normal relaxed breathing also returns my hands to normal.
I do the Joe Dispenza meditations.
I’ve experienced several times an intense energy and heat around my eyes while meditating.. my eyelids rapidly convulse (the best way I can describe it). I end up putting so much focus on it that my meditation ends shortly after. Have you ever heard of this? 🙏🏼
最近正在脚心穴🦶👣双脚之间 体验到全身旋转。有时是其他的脉轮。这种旋转感对我来说是超级舒适的 忘了一开始吓不吓人 但感觉一直都是挺美妙 极其解脱的体验。说到底 冥想🧘♀️不就是为了体验到这种旋转感和美妙感吗 当然各有各的私人理解和体验❤ 我对这种旋转的理解是 处于脉轮的中心 有时是一个脉轮 有时多个脉轮 但脚心穴的中心能量体验最为强烈 因为它涉及全身的旋转，以至头顶，感到全身舒畅。
博主说是左右脉轮平衡而达到中心脉轮，是赞同的，因为于个人体验而言，确是如此，
但不恐怖哦
而且很美妙 超级舒适
感到终于回家的体验❤❤❤❤❤🙏
Wow thankyou i have the spinning sensation for over a year ago after many years attempting meditation and mindfulness. I started with a red swirling mist and now it always violet and recently i saw golden code that seemed a mix of the chinese language and pictograms.
As I said on your colour video I had been working on cutting karmic bonds with what does not help me align to my true self and it was amazing how the colours matched the chakras at where I was at in that journey.
Oh last night I was working with arcturians and saw an image like i was seeing something in a dream but awake. There was two humanoid figures i saw one push the other out the frame and heard careful you will scare her. for the first time but it gave me a falling sensation as she said that like dropping in a rollercoaster and they disappeared. However I felt exhilarated afterwards and immense love and gratitude.
Thankyou for your videos being the first the help me truly make sense and have clarity to keep myself safe grounded and protected at all times without my guides stepping in too much 😳😅
Hi Ben, I love your channel and it’s really clarifying a lot of the questions my mind had about the energy centres of the body. I went through what I now know was an ego death back in 2020 and I gradually eased into meditation after a very difficult start and this spinning has stayed with me since then without the explosive energy you’ve mentioned. I suppose it’s the gradual way towards that activation in my case perhaps. Thanks and I look forward to seeing more of your content.
This has occurred but I wasn't sure if it was a headache or something haha because its a strong sensation of spinning like being a spinning wheel haha thanks for the explanation Ben!
Great explanation... everyone deserves Kundalini energy but it is best to remove the programmings in our minds first before opening up the Kundalini... Kundalini magnifies whatever we have in our mind. If there are a lot of fear, shame and guilt (programmed by Church) it will be magnified as well. Kundalini will open up automatically after we have clarified our minds from programming/culture.
Great teachings!
So I wanted to ask a question and couldn't find the answer on your channel so here it goes. Some days when I'm meditating I have to consistently pull my head back up from falling asleep. Now it doesn't happen everyday but when it does it becomes very difficult to finish- I usually fight my way through it. I was wondering if this was common and if there was a technique or something that would help. I very much appreciate your time 💗 Thank you😊
I do get the sensation of spinning while but i also felt like i was being waterboarded lmao. I did think i was gonna die one time
I see colours n feel spacey
same idk why
Look up Arcturians... he does a video on colours and I find they do relate with the relevant chakras and the chakras are relevant to show me the area I'm at on working on an issue or thought process.
Arcturians communicate through colours light and geometry. You might have one as a guide or as your star family.
I sync with you like a plug in a socket !
it happened to me some years ago multiple times, or i just loose the feeling of space for example i know i started meditation in certain part of my room, but at some point im not even sure of where i am really in the room. i have started meditating again recently and did not happend again thankfully, i dont really like the feeling, lol
I get a slight spin, almost like I’m turning inside myself - but also get a rocking back and forth sometimes. Thanks for doing these videos! I had a spontaneous awakening years ago and started meditating a bit after - but have had many sensations with or without meditating without knowing what they were about.
Could you do a video about the ringing in the ears? I think it’s called nada- I get a high pitched tone primarily in my right ear
The spinning wasn’t during meditation but at night when I was sleep I would spin like I’m on a ride, felt very weird. This went on for a while at night until one morning I had this urge to stretch so I sat in a ball and rolled my body backwards and forward until suddenly I started spinning so hard that I just played there feeling as if I was gonna pass out because I was spinning so fast until it stopped. I was afraid to more for a minute but after that incident I didn’t spin anymore.
I often will have experiences where I just feel like a giant shift and my mom says to me it’s my kundalini. It’ll happen randomly, either I’m walking or just out. It comes from deep within. Why do you think that happens? Never made me scared - I’m almost brought to an awareness.
Lovely video with lots of great info! I only have one suggestion. Your Sanskrit pronunciation is incorrect on several of the terms you've used here. For example, asana, ida, kundalini, mantra, chakra...the way you pronounced Om Namah Shivaya...were all pronounced incorrectly. It would be a good idea to take a short Sanskrit pronunciation course to make your videos more accurate if you're going to be using these terms
I got to this when I was trying to astral project my perception was completely off I felt like my body was going in circles but was stationary, still haven’t succeeded in astral projection yet 😢
The danger of Kundalini
When imbalanced
In your survival of the Kundalini chaos
You will have no other choice
But to discover Yoga
As a way out of madness
Entangled in the ego frightening
You'll have to learn how to harness all the madness
You'll have no choice but to become again one with your Chakras
To find all the places where you're energy has depleted
To fix that Chakra
And let the flow goes all the way up
But when imbalanced you don't have flow, but leak
And the supposed light has became extinct darkness
You don't know where to put your light on
Except the well known ego definition let your flow out
Seeing your error
But no fix
Again the ego trap
You have to die
And re-born again as the One
Thank you. Any chance to do a video on breath work while meditating?
Thank you for answering this and thorough explanation . 🪷I’ve been meditating for years, also reiki facilitator, some yoga, trance dance, sound healing … I was taking kundalini yoga at one point because a professor at a uni in my town was teaching but she didn’t explain dangers of kundalini
awakening quickly and when I researched that and the organization, I decided not to follow that path. Slow and gentle at the right time for me, thank you very much😊 My sense when the spinning occurred was that it was positive , my body actually moves with it. I try to not get too distracted with it, but have sometimes played with bigger movement, sort of like a sitting Sufi whirling meditation. So great to understand these experiences better, TY🙏🏻.
Is Ha in the polynesian tradition the same as prana/Qi/etc?
I usually see blue and green, rarely other colors, while meditating. I also experience white swirling lights. But why do I see blue while I'm getting my teeth cleaned in the dentist's chair, while my eyes are open??
Ive never felt like I was spinning during meditation.

What about exercises like the middle pillar or LBRP? Is that similar?
So, mostly I read about people feeling a clockwise spinning, but I am getting an anti-clockwise spin at some ferocious speed. What's the difference?
What is the scary feeling ? What is frightening about the energy?
Hi Ben, or anyone else who may know....I have a back & neck injury & have been meditating every day for the past yr , which has helped me IMMENSELY, but have to lay down flat (and straight) while meditating. Im not looking to astral travel & have been using it to "heal" many of the health issues I've suffered from since a child.. Am I wasting my time doing it this way or is there a way someone with back problems can meditate sitting up? Ive tried several different ways while sitting & have had to end my med. early from the discomfort. Thank u for posting such helpful videos😘🤗2all😇
Hello! No, you are absolutely fine to do it lying down if needed. If you can, just keep the spine nice and straight. 🙂
Thank you so much for answering that quesrion for me, Ben. my internet has been down so I apologize for not responding with gratitude, sooner. ❤😘🤗2u😇
Interesting, but I have never felt anything out of the ordinary while meditating.
Some people will, some people won’t. Its all good! It’s not necessarily a measure of how advanced someone is 🙏
If you know how to meditate it can be done any time I've even meditated in a lucid dream and yes i have prana kali taght me kundalini as kid insane unadulterated bliss, yes chi ki etc same thing
Whoa 😮 that happens to me too, I have lucid dreams and I actually choose to meditate lol, 😂, I've read some people like to fly and do cool things, I just meditate or fight demons when I see them.
@@joshuawalker301 learn it if u can, its f fun lol i love jumping of skyscrapers lol
@@joshuawalker301 also the fact u also meditate in dreams, its a good sign :) nice
@@simeondawkins6358 i remember once in a lucid dream i started spinning and asking my conciousness to show me something then i got WOKEN UP at that moment
@@joshuawalker301 I always chose flying ahaha actually once I just thought of going to a place and suddenly appeared there :) so cool to control whatever
Every once in a while I will wake up early in the morning and while my eyes are closed I will see like a rippling water that is either electric blue or purple colour. When this happens I often feel like I am spinning. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Is there a power here that I can harness? And last week when I was meditating I saw a ball of purple light in the scenter of my vision and then it spread out like a fire in my total vision and danced for a bit then faded out. My physical vision is totally fine and I've never needed glasses. So I don't think it is a medical thing.
My spinning stops suddenly & some type of flow. It almost looks like snowing in space.
Why have I never experienced this? I’m new to meditation but when does this start?
I've been using guided meditations for reality shifting for a while and I've had some experiences that I can't explain. I have felt itching but it's weird because normal itching goes away on it's own when you ignore it but *twice* it happened to me that a burning itch was all around my body and wouldn't go away, it only stopped when I stopped meditating and if I started again the itch would appear again. I have also experienced feeling like I'm moving extremely fast, so much that I feel vibrating to the point it gets uncomfortable in my ear, the sensation gradually disappeared both times it happened
Have you heard of something like that? If you have, why does it happen? what does it mean?
Can you lie down to meditate?
Of course
Hi Ben, is it normal for someone to feel dizzy after meditating? ( It happens to me a day after meditating)
What would be considered a more dangerous practice?
I got the sensation of spinning, but also moving forward. But my body isn't physically moving. As if I am in sudden momentum. What would cause the sensation of moving forward?
What if our vision is spinning? Mine would spin counter clockwise and I would feel light headed for a second.
It spins around me, i dont spin around it. Lol it should know i have motion sickness. Mine was around chest. I suppose it could be lower, but i dont want to overdo it.
Do ice baths impact kundalini at all? Bc sometimes I feel like I have infinite energy afterwards
If you feel like you have infinity energy, go test it, go fun a run or lift weights, make it the longest run or the heaviest lift you ever had.
No, not kundalini, but ice baths & cold showers are amazing for you generally
So if you’re just at home following a simple meditation for stress relief and you start spinning, I gather you should stop meditating so as not to release too much energy?
Terrifying w/ energy release how?
I was never able to meditate. Luckily, I don't need to. Everything just transpires naturally.
Do you have an app for meditations ?
I’m not big on guided meditations so I don’t have an app for that, but I do teach meditation through my online school. Links in bio🙏
I don't feel like im spinning but my body will rock. Do you think that's the same?
Look up spontaneous kundalini kriyas.
Why does the center of my brain vibrate and I cant kay my eyes only at on place when i meditate?
I feel like I’m floating and falling at the same time - what would that mean?
Hello Ben
Just asking is your online skool price per month in US dollars?
It is yes. 15 US dollars each month, cancel anytime 😊
Why i have the sensation of falling ?
Science can measure life force 😉
I feel like I'm drunk and I want to throw up 😢 and usually my head tends to bend over a little
The only thing I don’t like is that it makes me nauseous and wanna throw up lolllll
Short answer: you’re just dehydrated
😂😂😂😂
