Grounding Exercises from the book Spiritual Protection:
Little Prince meditation: "Picture yourself standing upon the planet earth. See yourself as very small, the size of an ant, and surrounded and engulfed by the enormous, massive body of the earth itself....automatically grounds you." Didn't work for me. Wouldn't Little Prince picture himself on a small world? That feels better to me and inspires my responsibility to my world. Envisioning a root connecting to earth: "Inhale, drawing energy and breath in through the root.... Then exhale, sending that energy of breath out." I like being able to connect my imagery to breath work, works better.
Ground in two or three worlds/realms:" Once you've successfully managed to ground in two worlds, try to ground in three- Midard, Yggdrasil, and Helheim, for example." "Be aware that you will likely need permision from each of the worlds to do this." I did this with Hecate, Demeter and Persephone. It was delightful and tasty, heady afterward but strong. Advanced warning on this one.B But if you astral travel/read/imagine other worlds so much that you basically feel like you're in to worlds at once, this is just a natural progression and doesn't unhinge you too far.
Using the other elements to ground: "Ground in the ocean or another element...earth's molten core." I like how there's different aspects and reactions to the body depending on what energy your connect with. Further practice into this might help me understand the ethics to purging my bad energy into the earth too.
