I was fine after about 30 minutes of getting up and walking around eating some cereal without milk.
That's why its good to wait for a bit after any sort of event arising from meditation or internal work. With meditation and qigong and some other things as well I like to wait from three days to a week or so just to be sure what I think is going in really is. You cant make things worse by waiting but you can always make things worse by panicking. Any subtle workings will leave you very aware, some times that's good, most of the time it is not. After an unusual experience it is even more so. Eating is also a good way to ground you, touching your furniture also helps, really you just want to focus on the physical while you settle down.

It has been sometime since i have practiced any sort of meditation or astral projection. I have gotten back into the practice lately... It has been a good while since i have done energy working. Can you elaborate a bit on bad blocks? My past experiences have never been anything like that before. Usually i feel really rested.
No block is good, but some are particularly bad. (IMG:
style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Energy blockages are clotted energy - stagnate and unmoving. They are created by repressed emotions, thoughts and deeds. Repressed emotions are the biggest causes though. In order to repress a emotion you have to stuff it somewhere, because emotions are energy they don't simply vanish. Depending on the kind of emotions repressed and how one represses them blockages will get stuffed anywhere from internal organs to the outer layer of your aura. Blocks are bad for a number of reasons. Firstly, they stop the normal flow of energy in the body leading to qi deviations, larger blocks and eventually physical symptoms. Second, they attract less than savory situations; parasites love them and because the emotions/thoughts have no expression and are not purified they will keep reoccurring in your life until you deal with it. Lastly and most impotently blockages prevent you from meditating or doing energy work effectively. Errant thoughts and disruptive emotions will keep popping up untill the cause is rooted out. This makes it hard to perform even the simplest magick.
Blocks can come in two types. Blocks and stagnation that is just big enough to cause issues. When you resolve stagnation you feel better. When you resolve a block you feel crap, sometimes for hours, as all those repressed emotions and the memories related to them parade around for a while. This is never pleasant. The best thing to do is let it happen and resign yourself to it. Panic, fear, worry, and attempting to control it will only make it worse. Simply acknowledge the emotion and ignore the memories (they are often fragments anyway).
If you try to clamp down on the experience you repress the original block again and add to it any emotions you had about it. Thus is it even larger are more painful to deal with.
