Focus

One desk candle and a clean timer, for the deep hours.

The ritual

One desk candle, one clean block of time. The app keeps a quiet timer and a single scent, so the room holds you without pulling at you.

The steps

setup   light a clean scent (cedar)
block   two hours, no notifications
end     blow it out, stand up

Why it works

A candle burns visibly — you can see time passing out of the corner of your eye. It keeps you honest.
