After some experimentation I have noticed better results for myself from having dedicated sessions for saturation, with a preliminary relaxation and statement of intent and closing affirmations at the end.

Two other techniques, falling into your Systemization phase, borrow from NLP.

Scheele developed Accelerated Learning, which follows Incubation and takes the place of (or at least proceeds) attempts to bring the learning out explicitly. Enter a trance state, view your life timeline and move into the future to two events where you successfully the utilize the target skills and then return, asking your deep mind to integrate the learnings.

Win Winger suggests a variation on traditional invocation or pathworking, where you encounter an expert in the skillset, merge with it an describe aloud the sensory experience of having expertise with the skill set, avoiding cognitive elements as much as possible, then separating and asking the expert to communicate the most important takeback for you, relevant to the skill.

They suggest waiting at least a week from activating using these techniques before working on explicit activation.

I have only started playing with these techniques recently and have gotten enough results to pursue them, with the qualification that so far I have only tried with skills I already had and wished to improve upon.

Cheers.
