About half of it is both physical and energetic. The area around the nasal bone would initially loosen, but it wouldn't completely loosen, and after a while, it would become hard again, hindering the flow of energy, so I've been repeating the process of loosening it again.

As a result of repeating this process of loosening the area from a hardened state several times, I've discovered the following:

・If I try too hard to focus my awareness and energy on the front of my face, I end up straining and tensing in strange places. Especially when strange tension builds up in the center of the head or the back of the head, the energy flow along the central axis of the head is blocked, making it difficult for the fundamental energy to flow, leading to a sudden decline in energy and awareness, and a strange feeling. Therefore, when focusing on the front of the face, I make sure not to block the energy flow along the central axis of the head, and instead, I intentionally focus my awareness only on the front of the head and move energy only on the front of the face. At that time, I keep the energy flow along the central axis of the head open. Initially, because I was trying to loosen the area forcefully and aggressively, I often ended up tensing other areas. However, recently, I've become more accustomed to it, and it's loosened to some extent, so I feel like I experience those strange states less often. Nevertheless, I still need to be careful.

・When the area around the nasal bone is too stiff, the energy flow from above and below is blocked, so I first try to open the flow from the sides. I bring my attention to the areas slightly below both eyes and direct energy towards the nasal bone from both sides. As energy flows, the area around the nasal bone gradually loosens. Also, the area from the nasal bone towards the center of the head also loosens accordingly. As the area around the nasal bone loosens to a certain extent, both horizontally and towards the center, the energy flow from above and below the nasal bone finally begins to flow.

Recently, the area in the center of the nose, the nasal bridge, has loosened, and the Manipura chakra seems to be activating accordingly, but the area around the nasal bone does not appear to be activating until the corresponding chakra develops. It feels like it's connected to the Anahata chakra, but there are no definitive changes yet.

・Directing energy from the center of the nasal bone to both ears.

This creates a cross within the head. The symbol of the cross is starting to appear naturally. It's not yet a clear shape, but there are slight signs of it.
