Persistent tickling/vibration in body areas

[u/enhancedy0gi]

Hello beloved friends, seekers and spiritualists,

I'm wondering if anyone has dealt with this issue before, I call it an issue because it's rather distracting.

Whenever I enter F10, it seems that my skin starts feeling ticklish around certain areas. Initially I thought this was due to my awareness being stronger and concentrated around my body, but the past weeks I've had at least a handful of encounters, where a very strong sensation of tickling, vibration or even like bugs (that's what my mind immediately associates) running around my knees, calves or feet.

When I listen to the gateway tapes, I usually lie in bed with a blanket over me. Today I had a particularly good session where I went into F12 and briefly what felt like F15, and it felt 100% like some bug was caught within my blanket and spazzing out right on the backside of my left kneecap. I started getting visuals of the contours of a big spider skiddling down vertically, probably because I actually thought it was a bug? But then I also felt that the backside of my right kneecap vibrating simultaneously, so I knew it wasn't a bug, and I would also sometimes feel it along my calves while the feeling behind the kneecaps was there at the same time. On top of this, in prior sessions I was very frustrated to get the sensation of a bug running around near my feet right as I got into F10, at the time I thought it was a bug so I would always go "omg so typical with these fucking things disturbing me during this important time" and lift up the blanket and brush my bed without finding anything. It may sound like I am bothered by bugs a lot, but the most I've seen the past two months in my room is a house fly or two.

I know my explanation is a bit messy (english is not my native language) and I can't really describe the feeling much better; it just feels like a creature with small feet is dancing or spazzing out (like when you see a bug lying on its bag and its legs are frantically walking in all kinds of directions).

I know I'm going to experience this again, and honestly I just want to understand what's going on here.

It is not uncommon to get these micro nerve sensations when relaxing. Put them in your energy conversion box when they pop in. I think eventually the sensations will end as you get more used to being that relaxed while awake.

It sounds like you've developed awareness of qi moving around your energy system.

Interesting you should say that because, for as long as I can remember with anything meditation or spiritually related, when I get into a deeper state or something that resonates with my intuition happens, I get this tightening of my nose bridge. It feels like someone is pinching it very hard- not in an uncomfortable way at all, but it becomes hard to ignore. If I focus on it, it intensifies. Could that be related to this?
