tingling during meditation

Hello,

Does anyone else experience a tingling when meditating? It remind me of when I have done visualisation of light meditations.

But I'm now getting this during mindfulness, mainly when scanning my body. So instead of observing how I feel I'm finding myself creating this feeling.

Its not unpleasant quite the opposite but I'm not sure it's in the spirit of mindfulness?

Welcome it in, calm_one. Just show it curiosity and love. It'll return the compliment.

Yes I agree I should just welcome it and its quite nice.

I was thinking maybe I was hiding from my true feelings by experiencing it but I shall just explore it :-)

hi Calm_one :) I get tingling too when doing the body scans mostly. I would give you the same advice as Jon, just watch it with gentle curiosity, theres nothing wrong with that! All the best with your practice.
