Some times a home color works for me , if I'm stressed I remember and return to my home color ... ti I'm calm and ... home ed so to speak.
The color I get when I wake up and have coffe and read in the morning before the family gets up is often my home color . It changes from time to time , season to season but I keep that in my meditation landsacape. I often return to it or match match it . I've met people with similar color feelings and said hey your orange looks great today , the few I've identified I have become very connected and very close to , works for me !

I do a couple of things throughout the day:

Morning: I do a quick five-line mantra meditation. It's really just long enough to set my mind on who I want to be in my life at the start of my day.
Afternoon: I do either shinkantaza (silent seated meditation) or mantra meditation as the last part of my workout.
Before bed: I try to do some energy meditation.

Throughout the day, I will also do short bursts of mantra meditation or just quiet mindfulness when there is a quiet moment or when I need a quiet moment, regardless of what's going on around me.

Actual practice for me on a daily basis really varies and I really don't have a set schedule of what exactly I do. Throughout the day I just sort of gauge my centeredness and really go from there. Some days I feel the need to do more compassion meditation, especially here recently in lieu of the recent victims that I have been working with. But typically I love doing moving meditation. I take some time out each day to slow myself down and perform a walking meditation for the better part of an hour or so. I don't even necessarily have to be in a park. I just kind of slow my pace down and appreciate the office and the company around me.

That and the body scan at night. Ah, there is no better way to fall asleep than to picture that purple glow of "energy" around my body as I work my way up from my toes to my head. Typically I don't even get to my knees before I conk out. :P
