Kondo starts her day by opening the windows in her home and burning incense before freshening up her Japanese altar with rice, salt, and fronds. “Then I’ll pray for the health of my family and friends, and also for myself to get done as much as possible what needs to be done. This is not a religious thing really at all. It’s just for me to take this time every morning to feel gratitude.”
