Hi guys
I am not sure if this is the right category
But I am having some difficulty in my cultivation and I need help
What happens is this that whenever I start meditating ( it can be any technique )
My eyes , head , temples, jaws, cheekbones etc start getting tense and heavy
I can feel that pressure building up in my forehead ( between the eyebrows ) ( and I don't think it has anything to do with third eye, I think it's just tension , I am just a beginner )
This pressure stays all day long, my head feels heavy all day long, I feel unfocused and sluggish all day long
Now this is the important thing, it happens only if I close my eyes during the meditation
If I keep my eyes open , this problem magically disappears ( I am not really sure about it because I have felt tension even during open eyes but still it disappears to quite an extent )
Now what is happening and what can I do to resolve this ?
I have heard reichian Therapy is good , so may be I can try that to release tension from my eyes, head and face ?
Any suggestions ?
Simply trying to relax the head doesn't work.
half closed eyes also don't work, it too bulids up tension
Progressive relaxation also I don't think will really work because the tension will build up anyway as soon as I close eyes
I think I need something which can release deep physical tension from my head , eyes and face
But all suggestions are welcome
