What emotion is held in the knees? - #60619
I am dealing with this annoying knee pain after meditation, and it’s really got me puzzled! Like, I thought meditation was supposed to help with stress and body aches, right? But ever since I started this daily practice, my knees feel stiff and achy. It's weird because I’m sitting cross-legged or sometimes just on the floor, you know, trying to relax and find my center. I have read that there's some sort of connection between emotions and knee pain, which is making me wonder if I'm, like, holding onto something? I mean, are there spiritual reasons for knee pain that I should know about?? It's super frustrating because I feel like I'm trying to do something good for myself, and instead, I'm getting stuck with this knee pain that makes it hard to sleep too! I keep shifting positions at night, trying to find a way to keep the pain at bay, but it just won’t let up. Like, how do I stop knee pain while sleeping? And is there any advice on knee pain meditation — like, should I be focusing on my knees during my practice or visualizing something different? Just feeling lost here and really hope someone can help!
