silently internally without moving the lips and the tongue at least for 11 times. Do the japa neither too slowly nor fast. Do the japa keeping your full awareness in the sound of the mantra with integrity and authenticity. Take a flower, durva and akshata in your right hand, chant :
ॐ हां हृदयाय नमः
om hāṁ hṛdayāya namaḥ
ॐ हैं कवचाय हुं
om haiṁ kavacāya huṁ

Now keep your hands in the Udbhava mudra and pour some samanyarghya tirtham in your hand and chant :
यत्किञ्चित् कर्म देवेश सदा सुकृतदुष्कृतम् ।
तन्मे शिवपदस्थस्य भुङ्क्ष्व क्षपय शङ्कर ॥
शिवो दाता शिवो भोक्ता शिवस्सर्वमिदं जगत् ।
शिवो यजति सर्वत्र यः शिवः सोऽहमेव तु ॥

śivo yajati sarvatra yaḥ śivaḥ so'hameva tu ||
ॐ हां हौं शिवाय नमः।
