Tips on Setting up own Retreat?

[VictorB02]

Hello forum, Early in 2019 I will be attending my first 10-day Vipassana Retreat, and in preparation for this retreat I will be doing 3-4 of my own mini retreats 1-4 days in length in my own home.

I was wondering what your tips are on setting up retreats alone, things like:

How much time each day doing various techniques like mindfulness meditating / self inquiring / do nothing technique?

When you wake up / go to bed?

Do you keep a journal or keep it completely free of any distractions?

etc.

Thank you for any replies!
