When the Tzemach Tzedek was nine years old the Alter Rebbe said to Him:

"I received from my Rebbe (the Maggid of Mezritch) who received from his Rebbe (the Baal Shem Tov) in the name of HIS well-known Rebbe (Achiya Ha'Shiloni) that from the second day of Rosh Chodesh Elul until Yom Kippur we are to say three chapters of Tehillim every day (1-3, 4-6, 7-9 etc.).

Then, on Yom Kippur, thirty six (chapters): Nine before Kol Nidrei, nine before sleeping, nine after Musaf, and nine after Ne'ila."

Whoever did not start on the second day of Rosh Chodesh is to start with the Tehillim of the particular day on which he realizes his omission, and complete the missing Tehillim later.

(by following this schedule, you will complete the entire Tehillim during this special period)
