    Dear Peter,

    While I haven't got the chance to read Questions & Answers yet, I am
    using that method myself. I don't know whether Bardon suggested the
    use of a spoken word or not, but I use a mental symbol in the same
    concept, and it worked very well.

    Of course, the word (or any other personal symbol you choose) has no
    power of itself, but when repeatedly used during transition between
    mindsets (or even states of consciousness) it becomes associated
    with the change, and one of them brings the other along. The same
    logic stands behind using a special room for Magical work, special
    clothes, etc. The most important factor here is consistency, as
    changing the symbol every now and then will prevent the
    psychological binding from occuring.

    After some time, or at least so it has been with me, the symbol
    becomes completely unnecessary, as you learn to discern the
    difference between the "special exercise mindset" and your regular
    mindset, and understand how to switch between them at will.. I find
    it difficult to express clearly in words.

    Also, I personally believe it is important to do minor forms of the
    exercises throughout the whole day. By doing that, one can learn how
    to utilize his new tools all the time and in any situation, without
    necessarily going through the preparation procedure.

    I hope I've been of help! :)

    Sincerely,
    Daniel Gutmanas
