Here is Jeddah’s response to this post:

This sounds like a kundalini awakening, or at least a waking up! Jane must have been ready to release this energy for it to be so dramatic. She handled it well from reading her account. Now she can proceed as guided with the base meditation.

Strong experiences like this are uncommon for this meditation. Normally we move the energy along the spine to create a conscious association along the pathway of the centers. We are not trying to create overnight enlightenment as many of the stories about kundalini suggest. We are gently bringing more conscious attention/noticing to this area and increasing the capacity of consciousness to hold increasing frequencies.

Love to all,
