18 Japanese Evening Habits That Keep a Home Calm and Clean

In Japan a house is closed for the night, not just switched off. These are the eighteen small evening habits I have used for fifty years in an old wooden house — the ten-minute airing, the five minutes of cleaning, the cone of salt at the entrance, the hand bath, plain hot water, the point below the navel that settles you in six breaths. No products, no machines, no scrubbing.

The 18 habits, in order:
Teinei — moving slowly and gently — 2:40
Matcha as a process, not a drink — 3:35
Listening to a scent — 4:25
Komorebi, the last light — 5:15
Washing your hands at the door — 6:05
The ten-minute evening airing — 6:55
Thanking the light — 7:45
Five minutes of cleaning — 8:30
Radio taisō in three minutes — 9:20
Sayu, plain hot water — 10:15
Singing alone — 11:00
Morishio, the cone of salt — 11:50
Designing the sound of the house — 12:45
The tanden — 13:40
Seiri-seiton — 14:30
Tatami and forest air indoors — 15:15
The bath, and the hand bath — 16:05
Praying for someone else — 17:00
