is it common for difficult emotions to arise during energy work

[Beero]

Hi is it common when doing energy work and chakra exercises such as new energy ways for difficult emotions to arise, if so should you ease off on the exercises or is it a good thing

[Xanth]

Very common, yes.

While you can definitely take your time with anything new that arises, I would definitely encourage you to work through any emotional issues that come up.  It's all part of healing yourself and growing. 

Don't rush it though.
