Tips for Making It Your Own
- Start with just one or two items and add more when you feel ready.
- Keep your schedule flexible. A missed session is not a failure.
- Pair a new habit with something you already do, such as practicing after breakfast.
- Drink water regularly throughout the day, unless your doctor has advised otherwise.
