Third Eye Headache

[HiImJeremy]

More like Third Eye Migraine hahaha. Very very painful. Extreme throbbing throughout the head area, especially pulsing from the third eye to the back of the head.

Couldn't get to sleep at all the other night. Left me feeling like crap. I had up at 5 in the morning after 5 hours of not being able to sleep. I had three panadol and a 15 minute shower and it seemed to go away within half an hour.

Anyone experienced this themselves? anyone know the cause? Merely thinking about it makes me remember and almost feel the pain again.

I've experienced similar headaches. Mine ranged from dull to throbbing, not to migraine level. Also accompanied by a feeling like something touching my forehead at the third eye, imagine the feeling of a sticker stuck to your forehead. Last occurrence was several weeks ago.

I've found it's brought on by too much forced concentration. For example: Forcing myself to stay awake, extended periods of concentration like playing games, reading when tired, using tv/computer screens. Also add stress.

I found reference to this exact sensation (spot on the third eye plus headache) in a book on Chi Kung. Funnily enough the causes exactly matched what brought on my symptoms. Energetically caused by rising yang Chi, forcing things, concentration, stress etc. all yang. Remedies were massage the neck and back of the head down the body to bring the Chi lower, get some rest, relax relax relax and don't think too much. Deep breathing should help too, bring Chi to your lower energy centre (dan tien)

Also if the panadol plus shower helped it could just be a tension headache - all of the above should help with that too Hope you feel better.

G'day, thanks for that Richful!

i have family in brisbane.

Im on the sunshine coast. What a small world!

As a matter of fact that very same day i stayed awake quite late and i also played games all day. So this could have done it too! I dont think it was tension. In the early hours of the morning i was doing very deep breathing and colour healing. But it's hard to concentrate when you're feeling like that!

Thanks for the advice. I have indeed recovered!

[Richful]

Haha, another Queenslander! Small world indeed....

Please forgive me for going off-topic...but "Third Eye Headache" sounds like a great name for a band or a song. Possibly a pasta dish. Maybe a slang expression for a traffic jam. Maybe a game show.

Im very happy for your post Royster haha thank you for your 2 cents.

I appreciate the work you do. Existing really.

Making the path clearer for others.

Jeremy.

Hi Jeremy,

I've experienced this too. Most notably when I take ormus, and also when I was pregnant with my son I had these headaches that would last 3 or 4 days. I would go to sleep and wake up with the same throbbing sensation. It's not "pain" in the normal sense, to me, it's a fullness or pressure, like chi backing up.

[HiImJeremy]

It was so intense guys! you obviously know how it feels.

I was actually warned by a psychic a couple years back that for me in particular my third eye would start developing more thoroughly, and along with it for a while would come the Third Eye Headaches.

i dont understand chi to well. I used to do Kung Fu and tey talked about. Life force energy isn't it? Im just not sure of the differences between the Ying and Yang and why it needed to go to the head.

And yes laks! it felt like extreme pressure, like my head was gunna explode. It also felt painful for me to though. Like a bad headache would be painful.

Chi is life energy. In a healthy person it is flowing smoothly, not blocked or scattered. yin/yang are the unity of opposites, separately they are yin and yang (really there is no separation, it just makes classifying easier). Yin is soft, yang hard, yin is cool, yang is hot, yin is heavy, yang is lite, etc.

I probably shouldn't have said yang chi that's a bit confusing. Basically what I meant was the Chi is rising to your head, due to extended concentration, staying awake, too much thinking - all yang activities. So you had too much Chi at your third eye (or upper dan-tien in Taoist practice), rather than it smoothly flowing around your body. Calming yin activities should deal with the blockage.

In Taoist energy work you learn to gather chi and circulate it through a channel running up the back and down the front of your body
