I showed my chiropractor and he thought it was amazing that my spine would spontaneously adjust itself. I told him it was pretty standard for tmers with bad backs. TV dinner still cooling?

When during TM if you fall asleep sitting, the head will fall towards the chest, *this is a very dangerous situation*.

I am sure many have suffered this unexpected side effect of TM. I had an old neck injury (probably a bad sprain) from high school when someone had done a "basketball throw" the length of the court and it hit my head from the side, whiplashing it. For years my head would snap violently during TM and sutra practice. Eventually during shavasana I would get these loud humming and roaring sounds coming from this same spot. After some massage therapy and the intense shakti, it slowly healed the old injury to the point that it's gone after years of neck and back spasms. So it can also heal various maladies IME.
[FairfieldLife] Chronic neck pain due to TM....
One of the dangerous side effects of TM is chronic neck pain if not handled properly. When during TM if you fall asleep sitting, the head will fall towards the chest, *this is a very dangerous situation*. Over time if the head is not supported by a neck pillow or brace of some kind you will develope chronic neck pain!! MMY has mentioned this verbally in one of his lectures but to my knowledge it is still NOT in the checking notes which should be imperative it be there! I am sure many have suffered this unexpected side effect of TM.
