Exhausted Or Headache After Conjuration? Options

Is feeling exhausted, headache, sleepy, dizzy a normal thing after conjuring spirits? Anyone of you have this feeling after your spiritual works?

I went through this a lot, still go through it when I am not thinking.

My recommendations are as follows.

After any major power use. Have plenty of sugars, preferably in the form of fruits and vegetables, but some sweets (brownies, cake, pie) is good too. Also a lot of liquids, lemon-aid or iced-tea is my personal choice.

Second…do some major grounding. This can be a ritual, rolling in the dirt, taking a cold shower, or doing some exercise after you are hydrated again. Even eating a large meal can help in this.

My opinions on why.

Here is the thing, any high use of power will use a lot of brain power, the brain is fueled by sugars. The more natural the fuel the better. The other thing going is possible dehydration, or lack of minerals in your blood. Dizziness is happens when not enough nutrients are reaching the normal areas of the brain.

At the very least, drink a large bottle of sports drink, 2 aspirins, and some cookies.

Depending on what you have done, if it no longer requires effort on your part (your casting is done!) you should do everything in your power to fall back into the mundane and rest mentally for a few hours. Preferably something physical not mental.

This is something not thought of in the Magickal communities much, but a solid healthy body can do nothing but improve your Magick. While in many cases you want to tax yourself to enter the correct frame of mind, a healthy body recovers faster, and allows you to recognize signals of fatigue for what they are. Allowing you to act accordingly when the time comes.

hope that helps
