thanks for taking the time to reply faerywhisp.

As far as I'm aware, I'm giving it enough time at the beginning, I give it around 5 minutes or so after saying the phrase.
I havent noticed any difference after 10 day's so far, so I'll just keep going, its worth a try, I do all the ending excersizes and I manage to get through 30 minute sessions of the active excersize in the morning and then at the end of the day I do the active meditation.
No improvement yet, but I hope it does.
