2 inhales on one breath in
I can't remember if I've asked this question before and couldn't find anything in my past threads so apologies if I have.
During my breathing when meditating I always without fail get what I've now started calling a double breath. Its like 2 inhales in one if that makes sense. If anybody has had the same or similar, do you know why it happens or what it means? I get this happen once during every meditation sometimes twice and I'm usually just before the 'nothingness' stage when it happens.
Its like something breathes me! It doesn't bother me or freak me out I'm just curious as to what it is or even, is it normal?

It's normal it makes the breath smooth and steady. Relaxing your mind for the nothingness stage

Thank you June16. When I first started meditating I didn't have it so I must be getting better at it

if you are being breathed you are probably being taught! I don't know who is the teachers though . But I think that the important part of this is the place between the two inbreathes. Similar to the place between an inbreath and and outbreath.

Thank you FallingLeaves. Being taught what though! I don't have any teachers as such. I don't know why but I seem to find it easy to quiet my mind and I seem to be naturally able to do it quite fast. What would be able to breathe someone?

sometimes if you let them the spirits will animate your body for you. People who get it in a big negative way think of it as demonic possession and hate it; others are able to get aroused or whatever this way and like it instead of hating it... some of us get lessons though. Breathing is much more than it seems on the surface so it seemed like they might be teaching you something by 'helping' you with a different way of breathing.
but I liked what peteyzen had to say

I think in the meditation 'you' stop breathing but the breathing continues, just like the heart beats and the organs digest without 'you' doing anything.
It would feel like something else is breathing you, but it's really just you stopped, and life continues to do what it does.
It could lead further and you may feel things like posture correcting itself...
You just be there and watch, and let nature do what nature does.

It happens to me occasionally, too. I wouldn't worry about it.
I think it happens as the body enters a deep Alpha state of consciousness.
Certainly not worth worrying about if you're not doing it constantly and it only happens during meditation.

I quite like it OEN34. I'm glad it's not just me that has it
