Ritual Practice

Conduct the 'Tide Boundary Ritual': Draw a circle on a piece of paper. Outside it, with a blue pen, draw chaotic waves. Inside it, with a gray pencil, draw strong, simple lines (your fortress). Place a small stone in the center. Whisper, "I am grounded amidst the storm," then fold the paper around the stone and place it on your windowsill.
