Hi there,

I am not sure that I have the correct answer to your question, but I thought I would reply anyway. I always have told my students to get up slowly on their side as it is a much smoother and easier transition than just popping up out of savasana. I think it helps to prevent dizziness from sudden movement especially if the student has been lying down for quite awhile. To be honest, I did not realize it was the left side only we were supposed to use. Perhaps someone else can shed some light on this question. I hope I helped a little bit.

Namaste,

Jeann
