I have three here; they're still up for revision but here they are. Choose one of the 3 ways i've shown below; i've separated them with lines. Whatever you do don't analytical read the rest of my post to the end! There's a lot of repetition across the strategies and your eyes will glaze over lol Go directly to the section you want and it'll all be there.

PR step with Manual Activations
Photoreading
purpose
:: say exactly what you want from the text in one short sentence.
:: will this be a single read or syntopic?
:: estimate your activations (eg. 6 activations x 0:45:00 minutes @ activation = 4:30:00 hours)
prepare
:: drink water
:: tangerine technique or widening peripheral field
:: reaffirm your purpose
preview (<5 minute @ book)
:: survey covers/flaps, table of contents, index.
:: underline toc and index keywords
photoread
:: prime the book's spine
:: don plastic thumbs
:: ALS countin (5-1) and photofocus
:: rhythmic pageturn and chant
:: close with mastery
postview (<5 minutes @ book)
:: mmap toc/index keywords
:: choose text sections to activate first
:: ALS countout (1-5)
mindprobe
:: review underlined keywords and mmap
:: activate this text, or stop? decide now. if you'll stop, put the text away. if you'll continue, reestimate your total activation time (eg. only 4 activations now x 0:45:00 = 3:00:00).
evening/nighttime incubation (incomplete)
:: leave the text for a day (recommended).
:: memory supercharger
:: image stream or lucid dream
Manual Activation(s)
purpose
:: say exactly what you want from your activation session in one short sentence.
:: scan for text sections you'll activate
:: write all questions as you scan
:: set stopwatch for 0:45:00
prepare
:: tangerine technique
:: ALS countin (5-1)
:: photofocus
activation (45 minutes)
:: superread or dip/skitter
:: mmap in layers. 1st activation = overall section mmap. 2nd activation = subsection mmap. 3rd activation = chapter mmap. 4th activation = heading/paragraph mmap etc. do this until stopwatch beeps.
rest (10 minutes)
:: ALS countout (1-5)
:: edu-k crosscrawl
mindprobe (5 minutes)
:: review mmaps
:: decide now: continue reading, or stop? if you'll stop, close with a sense of mastery and gratitude and put the text away. if you'll continue, what type of reading will you do (activation, group activation, or rapidreading)?

:: image stream or lucid dream
Group activation
purpose
:: say exactly what you want from your group activation session in one short sentence.
:: share mmaps, articulate core concepts
:: let others test you
:: write their questions as you talk
:: find text sections you'll activate
:: set a stopwatch for 0:45:00
prepare

rest (10 minutes)
