Feeling "physically non-existent" after intense ritual work — Is this normal / severe ungroundedness?

Hi everyone,

Over the past period, I’ve been immersing myself deeply in occult practices and running multiple rituals. Recently, I’ve started experiencing a very specific and unusual sensation: a persistent feeling that I don't physically exist, or that I am completely detached from the material world/physical body.

It’s not just feeling distracted or spaced out; it literally feels like my physical presence has dissolved or become surreal, while my consciousness is somewhere else.

I wanted to ask the experienced practitioners here:

  1. Is this a common phase or side-effect when engaging in intensive ritual work?
  2. Is this simply extreme ungroundedness (lack of grounding), or something related to subtle body alignment?
  3. What grounding techniques, banishing routines, or practices do you recommend to anchor back into physical reality when this happens?
I’d really appreciate any insights, personal experiences, or practical advice.

Thanks!

Go to your doctor and check you have not had a mini-stroke in the right half of your brain. I am not kidding.

The symptoms you describe match up with those of people who have had right hemisphere brain lesions.
