Is It Normal To Sneeze During The Kechari Mudra?
Quote from Kepler on November 28, 2025, 6:24 pmI've noticed I sneeze quite often, especially when my tongue reaches new areas. It seems there are specific spots that, when touched, cause this sneeze reaction.
After a few days, the sensation sneeze response, as my neurons learn this is a 'false alarm' I suppose. There isn't actually a piece of pollen in my nose.
I was just curious if I am unique in this sneezing effect. It does have the downside of also causing a runny nose, which slows my practice.

Quote from Gerhard on November 29, 2025, 10:25 pmI would agree this is very normal. What you wrote perfectly matches my experiences.
Sometimes there is a very clear sneeze reaction, as you mentioned, but other times these spots can also stimulate an uddiyana type of effect – which I consider to be very auspicious!

Quote from Shinzen on November 30, 2025, 5:40 pmOne hundred percent normal.
I have also experienced another strange effect a few times, where one of my ears can feel a 'tickle' when my tongue is in certain spots in stage 3.
Also very rarely, but I do recall shedding a few tears a couple of times as a stimulus response (not emotional). I think that was in stage 4.
