Pour slowly into a plant or a cup, speaking one sentence of release or offering.

4

Observe how you feel afterward; note if you need refilling yourself.

“I offer with clear hands and keep a place to be refilled.”

2–3 times

Log who received the liquid, where it flowed, and your feeling before/after each dream.

4+ times

Map recurring recipients and locations; look for patterns of giving, depletion, and where boundary work is required.
