the shape of my days

Rituals.

A slow, analog life isn't an accident, it's built from small, repeatable things. Here's the rhythm I keep coming back to.

6:00-9:00

Morning

10 minutes of sun.

  • wake up at the same time, every day
  • no doom-scrolling
  • prayer + meditation
  • the same breakfast, every day
  • 10 minutes of sunlight
Morning, sitting in the sun on the grass
9:30-6:00

Work

one project, one tab.

  • prioritize deep work first
  • the pomodoro technique
  • lunch at home
  • do my best
Work, laptop and matcha at a quiet table
6:00-10:00

Evening

sunset, no phone.

  • a sunset walk, without content
  • a slow dinner
  • one destimulating activity
  • reading + journaling
  • asleep by ten
Evening, a quiet path at sunset
