After having read it I just wrote an extensive introductory pamphlet for our regular ritual so that all newcomers know exactly what to expect and can ask questions well in advance.

I found another quick grounding technique. It has its own perils, due to potential allergies, but fortunately I've never encountered anyone who's had one when I used it. Generally I ask the person who needs to be grounded if zie is allergic to black pepper. If not, I hand over either an individual paper packet (easy to take out to a remote ritual site) or a pepper shaker if indoors, and have the person take a careful sniff. It's remarkably effective!
