headaches in my spiritual journey

hare krishna,

I am a new devotee and just recently started doing 16 rounds of mahamantra jaap.  I divide it into 4 rounds and by evening i am able to complete 16rounds.. even when i am not doing jaap in my mind i am continuously repeating krishna name while doing household chores.. but recently i have started experiencing light headaches.. these headaches are continuous and does not go away even after taking medicine.. i have stopped doing naam jaap . i just do 3 rounds as 16 rounds gives me terrible headache.. while doing the jaap i can feel a lot of throbbing between the eyebrow and head becomes heavy but i dont concentrate there i just chant loudly and sometimes mentally ... but now because of the headache i cant concentrate on chanting nor on doing puja nor on reading the scriptures...physically i am totaaly fine .. dont ask me to go to doctor as the headche comes only when i do chanting...  maybe since i am new to the chanting a lot of negativity inside me is causing it and may be it will go away on its own after sometime.. please help  with your valuable comments..

thank you

    Hare Krsna Mataji,

    PAMHO.

    This is the first time I have heard that someone gets headache by chanting. My advise would be to continue chanting. Maybe one visit to the doctor can also help.

    Haribol,
    Your servant,
