A practice you keep for a year beats an ambitious routine you abandon in a week. Here is the smallest version that still works.
Ten minutes, same seat
Choose one place and one time — most people find the first ten minutes after waking easiest to protect. Sit upright, eyes closed, and simply follow the breath in and out.
When the mind wanders, note it and come back. That returning is the practice.
Adding an intention
Before you begin, name one intention in a single sentence: steadiness at work, patience at home, clarity about a decision. Touch your bracelet as you say it. This links the object you wear all day to the intention you set.
Keeping it going
Track it loosely — a tick on a calendar is enough. Expect to miss days; restart the next morning without ceremony.
After three to four weeks most people notice they are less reactive before they notice anything else.
In short
Same seat, same time, ten minutes, one intention. Begin tomorrow morning.
