koori it takes practice don't give up. Try different times of the day, Inside the house , Outside which is my favorite( after dark), less stimulation ya know. Lean against a tree, sit on the ground.

ill keep trying just hard to keep my brain from bouncing and getting it to try and sit still and relax enough to do it

 I'd suggest starting with that- try keeping your mind still.  Tame the 'monkeymind' first.  Often we can get so distracted that we cannot visualize or ground and center, and the more we try the harder it is w/out taming our brain first. Try coming from the heart instead.

Glad I read this. I had heard about grounding, but I didn't realize that after meditation I should ground. I only thought it was after spells/rituals. It might explain why after meditations I felt really restless.
