I attended a 10-day Vipassana course last year and have been practicing daily for an hour since then, though I skip it once in a while. Over time, I’ve started noticing some unusual sensations.

During meditation, I sometimes feel heartbeat-like sensations in the part of my body where I focus. What’s more surprising is that even during non-meditation time, if I focus on a specific area of my body, I can feel a kind of heartbeat sensation there.

At times, especially when I’m resting or not doing anything, I feel this and it seems a bit strange or unsettling.

I’m curious if anyone else has experienced something similar during or after practicing Vipassana. Is this a normal part of the process?
