teeth chatter?

topic posted Wed, September 26, 2007 - 10:34 AM by  barbco
Hello everyone. I am new to this tribe. I am a beginner ashtangi and have recently noticed that when i engage mula bhanda, my teeth start to chatter. has anyone else out there experienced this? It has become really distracting for me and wonder if there is something I could be doing to utilize this energy elsewhere. thanks for all replies.

    I never had the chatter, but I did feel a slight dizziness and heart flutter like my blood pressure was rising, when I first started trying to do mula bandha. I would recommend just trying to gently engage the pelvic floor and listen to your body. Play with it. Have fun. My humble opinion is not to push yourself to the point of chattering teeth. Eventually, you should adjust to attempting to engage the ever-elusive mula bandha.

    keep on keepin' on,
