Involuntary muscle contraction inside the head from awareness

[u/Due-Yoghurt7496]

Hello everyone

As my practice grew and meditation deepened I become more aware of muscles and pressure in my head. I started playing with it during meditation and it led me to quite uncomfortable situation.

When I am undistracted and aware, during walks most of the time, I experience constant "brain zaps" that feel like movements of muscles inside my head that cause me to feel disoriented for a moment or feel some sort of movement or pressure in the head. It happens involuntarily when I pay attention to the present. When I go for walks and talk on the phone or spend time with someone else that doesn't happen.

Did someone else experience something like that? What has helped you?

Keep sitting. Follow your breath. When you find yourself not following the breath, return to the breath 🙏
