I’ve found this to be a consistent part of my rapeh experience, sharing in case others have the same feeling or have insights into what it could mean.

After the initial head rush, as I settle into the sitting, I have the sensation that my arms and lower body are heavy or even supersized. Not like increased density so much as an inflated feeling, as if swelled up. It’s hard to - describe but also familiar feeling, something I vaguely recall from childhood.

I use the same meditative pose in my regular non-rapeh meditations which can be much longer so I don’t think it’s just an effect of prolonged sitting or of my limbs “falling asleep” there are no corresponding physical effects, like actually swelling.

Thoughts? Physical and or spiritual meaning?
