I'm finding lately that my hips contract when I try to meditate. It's awful! I have to take muscle relaxants to sleep, because it's so painful. I suspect I'm holding too much tension in my body, not even noticing it during the day, driving for long hours and sitting at my computer, only to find myself flopping about like a tuna in the evenings as my body slows down for the night.
If you think it might be muscle tension, try what I'm doing these days - - - chiropractic, massage, "float" sessions at the local stress lab, anything. I'm trying to get off the pills. They're harmless, I'm not addicted to them or anything, I'd just rather not take them!
