How to really worship lord shiva?

HI so I come from a pretty religious family but the funny part is I’ve never been into religion tha much i was even atheist at some time. From the very beginning I’ve always question religion a lot and I’ve realised now after reading that Hinduism is more than just idols.

So basically recently I had a big falling apart in my life. And my mother suggested I try going to the temple once or twice and while doing this I feel like I got a calling from shiva it’s as if he wants to save me I know I might sound like low-key dramatic rn but that’s the truth.

Can somebody help me by telling me how to start worshiping shiv ji?

I go to the shiv temple near my house every Monday do the same ritual where u chadhao paani and bail patte. But i want to do more i wanna maybe chant some Mayra’s or whyever mudra ritual tha i can.

Please let me know wha i gotta do😁
