Hey there, good on you for beginning your practice with seir, I for one an beginning to practice myself. As someone who is also starting out, I am finding that I need to build up in proper practices. Seidr is a lot of diving and communing with the gods, as they come to you most the time, so learn to work with all of them, not just Loki and Freyja. As for practices, I began with learning to meditate, then went into three different trance states, mainly the mental "hypnotic trance" and the physician formed "ecstatic trance". There are great resources out there on both. I found that shamanic drumming helps a lot when journeying and entering a trance state.
I know this might not be the answer you are looking for and more my own personal experiences, but I hope it helped nonetheless. If there's anything you'd like to correct me on or share, please feel free to do so. Best of luck!
Here is a very concise post written by the lovelyPersonified.
It is called the Eighfold path to Altered States of Consciousness.
i like to work with all of these to some degree or another. the path of flesh is not necessarily blood-letting, and the path of plants is not necessarily hallucinogenic, just be safe and exercise caution.
in my experience it is easy to jump in and lose parts of ones soul to wandering other worlds. seriously ground often =D
Turn to the spirits for the answers. If your having trouble communicating with freyja then daily meditation is required on your part in order to facilitate two way communication. There are no spiritual practices when walking the path of the Vitki/volva. The only one mentioned is Utïseta (sitting out) specifically in nature. While learning Seidhr under freyja shell teach you how to let go to loose yourself.
