I have a friend who uses a prayer rock to hack her spiritual life. In the morning, as she makes the bed, she places the rock on her pillow. In the evening, as she prepares for bed, seeing the rock reminds her to pray. If she overlooks the rock as she gets into bed, laying her head on the rock jogs her memory. 
If you are unaware of the concept of “hacking” your life, we’re talking about those simple tricks and tips that help make your life run more smoothly. For example, if you have to remember to take something to the office the next morning, you sit it by the door so you trip over it on your way out, thereby reminding you to pick it up and take it. Life hacks can be a simple as that or somewhat more complex like Rosa Say’s Daily 5 Minutes.
