Grounding After Working

Ok, so I just got done casting a circle/closing and working with a spell.

Now my problem in the past has been not grounding afterwards, so I would end up restless, and well, last night, I became freeeezing cold!!

Tonight I meditated for a few minutes before and after I closed my circle. I tried to envision I was a tree and the roots extending from my feet going into the basement then into the backyard. I also spoke aloud and asked for all excess energy to leave me now. And I physically whooshed my arms and legs as if I were wiping something off me.

Aside from going to bed and seeing if I am restless, how will I know if any of my methods worked? And, do you think what I have done is a good way to ground?

thank you! :)

The method you used is a very effective one. It's quite similar to the one that I teach to my own students. Generally once you have done this you might notice a greater feeling of peace and comfort that would indicate that it has worked.

The big question is...did you sleep better afterwards?

Oh yes I slept beautifully!

I also would like to ask another question. My husband was in the living room when I was working with magick and said that he had looked into the hallway when he noticed something there. When he looked he said it looked like a brownish copper sort of hazy and it just disappeared. He said he didn't feel threatened at all and that it had no shape. What do you suppose he saw ? Could that have been a spirit guide or energy?
