Don't try to do it yourself, someone could get hurt. You need to contact a professional.

>According to the website AustralianAlmonds,[3] “activated almonds” are almonds that have been soaked in water for 12 hours.

>Advocates of ‘activated' almonds claim that raw almonds contain certain phytochemicals that prevent your body from receiving the full benefit of the nutrients almonds contain.

>The activation process requires almonds to be soaked in water for a period of 12 hours. Advocates believe this deactivates the enzyme inhibitors and brings the nut to life. Once the almonds have been soaked, they are then dehydrated at low temperatures (40 degrees) over a 24-hour period. Dehydrated almonds have a similar flavour and texture to roasted.

>There is almost no research that indicates whether “activation” works or not.

Here's the important bit

>According to Lisa Yates, nutritionist with Nuts for Life “Activation is like sprouting of grains (wheat or barley grass) or sprouting of seeds (mung bean sprouts or alfalfa sprouts). It converts some of the starch to simpler sugars, converts some of the protein as the emerging seed is breaking these down for fuel for its new growth.”

Based on these explanations, the simple answer is you can't - starch conversion is irreversable
