Berakhot 14

Today's focus on when you should pray in the morning (before you go about your business or greet others) suggests the right time to read the Talmud text is first thing in the morning. (“Righteousness shall go before Him and shall make His footsteps on a path” (Psalms 85:14)), which I have been doing. Over the past two weeks it has become an important ritual for me and has helped me get through the stresses of the day. I read the day's folio at my table before I go to work (and admittedly, while I am having my morning coffee because I cannot function otherwise.) I also usually have my cat on my lap, so I have already greeted another being.  I am wondering what rituals others have established over the past two weeks. Where and when do you do your readings? Has it changed how you go about your daily life?
