Does anyone else feel spiritual chills more strongly after emotional release?

A few nights ago I was journaling about some old memories that I normally avoid thinking about. Nothing dramatic happened but afterward I felt this intense wave move through my shoulders and down my arms. Full body goosebumps for maybe ten seconds. It felt very different from normal chills from music or cold weather. Much calmer and almost warm.

Since then I noticed the same feeling happens after meditation or when I finally stop overthinking something stressful. It feels like pressure leaving my body and turning into this energy rush.

I started reading more about frisson and voluntary goosebumps and somehow ended up finding FolkRealm through another discussion about spiritual chills. Some of the experiences people shared there sounded surprisingly similar to what I’ve been noticing lately.

Curious if anyone else experiences this after emotional release too.
