Question #4201: oxygen deprivation from meditating on emptiness.

[Ask Satya Operator]

when I do emptiness meditation for 20-30 minutes I have a shortage of oxygen but I don't want to breathe that much but after the breathing exercises it goes away.

 

[AFODO]

Do a breathing exercise while doing void meditation, or just make sure you are breathing right. You can do the basic 6-6-6 breathing for example.

Well you have to be breathing. If you are forcing yourself to hold your breath, you are doing something wrong.
