What most people feel: deep relaxation, warmth, tingling. Some people fall asleep within ten minutes, that's normal and welcome. Some people cry, also normal and welcome. Some people feel very little on their first session and notice shifts over the next few days. The Holy Fire III system I practice is particularly effective for deep relaxation.
