      It's fine to train yourself at first but try not to rely on it as much. Build up that awareness naturally and you'll be a lot more happy.

      Now I'm quite curious to see how you'll progress in the early stages with the assistance of that alarm hmmm....

      I guess I left out the fact that I only have been using the timer for an hour each day. Don't think I could handle much more than that.

      So I take it you're still getting daily LDs with this? How much effort does it take for you now to focus on the RC, or is it completely internalized now? Sorry for all the questions, just trying to take in all the data I can find on this .

      Couldn't agree more. I feel that this is essential when really trying to master awareness. You have to make it a "Second Nature" type of thing, as well as a mindset. Practice is useless when you keep forcing your mind to do be aware, you have to take the patient route and eventually your awareness will come on its own, and not only that, but when it does come naturally after some practice, that awareness will automatically be molded to fit you perfectly. My point is Zangetsu, be patient with this man, and you will reap the rewards after some time.

      You guys are making a lot of sense, I think I'll drop the timers. I definitely don't want to take the cheap route on this one. I can see how timers would almost remove your natural awareness because there wouldn't be a need for that if the timer did the job for you. Guess I'll have to try the ultimate dreaded task...patience. [cue dramatic sound effect]
