3. Select the `Custom` template, then select `All websites`.
4. Copy and paste codes from `content.js` and `styles.css` in this repository into the respective files in your new custom Boost.
5. In your new Boost's settings located at the top left corner ⚙️, update your new Boost's name to `Mindful Media` and ensure that the `Content script runs` is set to `After page loads`.
### Optional Steps
7. Configure the countdown time, mindfulness reminder, and the affected websites in your `content.js` file.
8. Go to your [Arc Extensions](arc://extensions/) page, click `Details` of the Mindful Media Boost, and enable `Allow in Incognito`.
