Energetic Preparation

The preparation walkthrough

A short walkthrough of setting the space is on the way. The written version below is complete — you can start today without it.

Recording in the studio

Before you start

Do this once, tonight or tomorrow morning, before day one. It takes about ten minutes and costs nothing — every item below is already in your kitchen or your drawer. If something on the list isn't, skip it. Nothing here depends on buying anything.

What to have nearby

  • A glass of water — plain tap water is fine.
  • One candle, or the flashlight on your phone if you'd rather not use fire.
  • A pinch of coarse salt from the kitchen.
  • A notebook and a pen you like writing with.
  • A photo of a parent or grandparent, if you have one nearby. Optional.

How to set the space

  • Pick one corner of your home and use the same one for all 21 days. Consistency does the work.
  • Clear that surface completely, then wipe it with a damp cloth. Nothing else goes on it.
  • Turn off the television and put your phone face down. Ten quiet minutes is the whole ask.
  • Open a window for a minute, even in winter. Moving air is the oldest cleansing tool there is.
  • Say the day's practice out loud, not in your head. Your own voice is part of the ritual.
