Greetings :)
I love Red Jasper! Wonderful stone :)
Let's take your questions one by one, ok?
First, how long does it take to feel some of the benefits?
There is no set answer for this. You see, each of us carry our own unique energy vibration. For some, it may take a very short time to infuse their energy with the energy of Red Jasper. Others may take longer. I think what is most important is to be aware of the body. "Check In" often to see how the body feels. Are you feeling energized? tired? How do you feel emotionally? Happy? Balanced?
Keep a journal and write down what you are feeling both physically and emotionally each time you "Check In". You are also encouraged to write down anything that comes in your head ( what you hear, see, etc). This exercise helps you tune into your body on all levels. That is how you will know when the stone is benefiting you (by the changes that are occurring when you do this "Check In" exercise.) One thing I would like to stress here--if you do not feel any differently, that is perfectly ok!! Many times, the energy is subtle and works "in the background". Also, if you are just starting out, you may not have honed in your energy sensitive skills yet. Some people are more sensitive than others. Irregardless, it does not mean the crystal is not doing its work. Patience is key.
Where do i keep it? pocket? bag? in my room? or on the body(on skin)?
Where you keep the crystal is a personal preference. It also may depend on what you are using the crystal for. For me, I prefer that when I am working with a crystal, that it touches my skin. The contact is an instant energy connection. Many times, if you are carrying the crystal with you throughout your day, a crystal pouch or pocket may be a better choice. You are still keeping it within your energy field and the stone is still infusing your energy with its energy. You could even place it on a nightstand or under your pillow. When the body is asleep, it is more open to receiving the crystal energy. You may want to a few of these suggestions to see what works best for you. Use the "Check In" method :)
Do i need to wash it from time to time in salt water?
I think it is a good idea to cleanse your Red Jasper from time to time. My favorite cleansing technique is putting it in the light of a full moon. Very simple method that will not harm the crystal. You could also simply run it under some pure water and then set it aside to air dry. Smudging is another great way to cleanse and charge crystals. The salt water method may not be the best. As always, it is personal preference, but remember, dry salt or salt water may scratch the stone or get into any crevices and damage the stone. Here are some great articles with alternative suggestions on how to cleanse your stone.

How do I properly energize it?(if you fail energizing the first time is it bad?)
It is my belief that once you hold the crystal in your hand there is an energy awakening. It is automatic. There is no "failing" at all. It is a simple energy connection.
Once you receive your crystal, you may want to express an intent (programming). What do you want the crystal to assist you with? What is your intention?
Here are some great articles that share information on programming your crystals.

I think the most important thing to understand is that you and your crystals have come together for a unique experience. Be patient, be aware, and trust.
with love and crystal blessings,
Kristi
