Thank you Anthem, it's kind of you to ask.
Yes, there are slight very gradual improvements with the head energy. Mostly the rough pulsations have evened out and also the last couple of weeks the concentration at the very top of the head, that Kirtanman also had, have spread out also to a larger area. In the meanwhile, the energy has also increased in the spine, so there is probably not more energy in the head than elsewhere, it's just that the head is more sensitive.
What seems to have helped the most is to discontinue the evening session temporarily, because in the evening the energy is more pronounced and any practice would increase the head energy, even just lying down and relaxing. When there is more permanent improvement I will much look forward to continue with the evening session again. The morning meditation of about 12-13 minutes is very peaceful. It's a long-term process, it took a year to build up with sambhavi for example, which I think contributed the most to concentrating energy in the head, and which I don't think I was ready for. So I expect it will take several months to get in balance again. Here is more I wrote recently:

I don't think I would dare to touch it right now, since I'm not even doing regular spinal breathing, or any of the other practices that Yogani describes below as prerequisites.
http://www.aypsite.com/plus/288.html"We should be well established in our routine of spinal breathing and deep meditation practice, and should also be comfortable with yoni mudra kumbhaka and the other mudras and bandhas, as well. In other words, this new hybrid practice is for those who already have good experience with all of the practices discussed previously in these lessons."
