Saraswati had warned in the following paragraph of
his book of Yoga Nidra for some of the achieved practices
may bring about a deep state of relaxation and meditation
It is very important, therefore, the mind be brought
out of this state gradually.
An abrupt transition for this deep state to waking
consciousness temporarily shocks the mind. And may
cause a headache.
Similarly the depth of their relaxation frightens some people
if they are brought out of relaxed state too quickly.
In either case the subject should lie in shavasana
and Practice awareness of breath until one becomes
calm.
This
case is already considered in our prerecorded commentary
in further lessons of practice.
