Oh, that's an easy one: I recommend them all!
It might help to view it as the crystallization of your instrument rather than in terms of "I'm going to meditate now."
First you might do an assessment of your instrument in terms of some generally accepted useful qualities such as ability to concentrate, ability to discern your personal stuff from trans-personal phenomena, your intensity of commitment to truly serve (and serve what, exactly) and so on.
Then look over your assessment and consider the areas you feel need real work. For example, for concentration there are exercises, for devotional intensification there are hymns, &c. For a general spiritual boost there are various groups which might be useful. To become more sensitive to subtle phenomena there are options.
In the long run, I would posit that there are two main areas you might want to develope: the capacity to become more self-aware and a deeper experience of self-awareness. Oftentimes people morn their fate because their experience of self-awareness is less than they'd like at a given time when what's happening in their lives at that time is the enlarging of their capacity for self-awareness. Try not to confuse them too much. You'll feel more balanced that way.
And remember to have fun now and then.
