How do I build a daily sadhana?

Choose one mantra, a fixed time and place, and one mala a day. Consistency over months is what deepens the practice.

Can I chant more than one mantra?

It's usually best to stay with one primary mantra for depth, though many devotees keep a short additional prayer.
