Side effects of meditation
Sorry if I'm posting a thread that someone might have already made. I just wanted to know if meditation could be hazardous.Sometimes I'd get these mild convulsions that would last a few seconds and my feet and hands would tingle slightly. I just hope it isn't anything to serious.

Circulation issue maybe
That sounds like a circulation issue or maybe something medical. The convulsions could be something as minor as muscle release or as major as minor seizures and tremors. i would look up the signs of both and try to discern the differences. Also i would try to stretch and improve your blood flow through position or movement beforehand. Maybe if it seems serious after looking at it closely, see a doctor.

Ok thanks, also what about the occasional "Demons" and other negative images seen when meditating after not doing so for a certain amount of time. (like a few months)

Maybe partnered work at that point
The first thing for intruders or disruption would be to have a guide walk through the meditative process with you at those times when it seems that the "others" are going to be bothersome. Not for protection but to note the process and when or what is happening that allows them to be present. Beyond that more specifics and protective or corrective measures would have to tailored to what and how you are approaching things.

The only "side effect" of meditation is opening yourself up to your cosmic self. I see all kinds of crazy things before I raise my vibration. Remember you are cosmic, infinite - connected to something much larger - that we may never be able to comprehend with our "small mind". Just be open to the experience, regardless of what you see.

Caution first
On a personal level I agree with Aeracura222. I think that in true meditation you are simply opening your own self awareness and that within that for the most part you are simply observing in all senses.
However, I always urge caution and if you are feeling or in any way aware of something you possibly perceive as hostile then it is possible that you are encountering or touching on something else. Maybe whatever it is is just something inside of you or your psyche, soul, spirit or unconscious (I don't profess to know your beliefs). Whatever you have observed it merits investigation and caution. "Who really knows what is out there" is my approach and because of this I try to always be a little cautious and prepared. If you have a trusted friend or even associate that can observe and work with you or at least share the experience with perhaps that would help, maybe a focal object or a particular memory. I am not sure, but I would not dismiss it.

non-physical entities do not like the love and light. focus on the heart and the love and share it with others. i bumped up the open heart meditation thread. if you're interested, use that.
enjoy.
