Question:
 
Recently I have been rededicating myself to meditation and I have been experiencing an intense, simple, extremely quiet and peaceful awareness with no focus on the body specifically, but rather some sort of broader awareness seems to happen and although I'm not so sure what it is or where it is, but I am enjoying it quite immensely.

Today when I was meditating however, about ten minutes into a twenty minute session, I start trembling. I just let it happen, and my body continued to tremble slightly until the session ended. The experience was normal other than that, of broad awareness not necessarily localized in the body. Do you have any experience with this? Is anything physiologically wrong with me?
 
Answer:

It’s highly unlikely there is anything wrong with you. These types of physical responses during meditation are very common. As the body takes the opportunity to normalize stored imbalances during meditation, it is normal for it to make some movement when it is releasing particularly deep stresses from the tissues.

It might be twitching, or sweating, trembling, pain, throbbing, rapid pulse or respiration. These reactions will go away on their own as the original trauma or pattern is cleared from the body. Just maintain a neutral attitude toward the trembling during meditation and it will likely subside quickly. Probably by the time you read this it will have gone away anyway.
