I guess I'm just a simple saint. To me "exercise your spirit" is whatever happens when I interact with my Lord. It happened to me frequently before I landed in the LSM-controlled local churches...I just didn't know what to call it. Before the LC I don't think I would have used that term because my pastor told me that the words "soul" and "spirit" were synonymous and back then there was the fear that if you focused too much on the spirit you would eventually start speaking in tongues and the Baptist church wouldn't let you teach Sunday School!
