The psychological aspect is an important point, it gives you more confidence, but the technical aspect aspect is equally important.
Incipient spin training is not enough, especially if not practised post PPL, if, at a later date, will you remember your training? Because it don't take long for an incipient spin to develop into a full spin, it won't be any good saying to yourself "Oh, what was it I was taught" it has to be an immediate reaction.
I recommend full spin training and regular practice to keep it sharp in your mind.
Also practice PFL's and EFATO's, an hour with an FI every now and then is, in my opinion, a good idea.
