Practice this tuning-specific layout

Play E Augmented Arpeggio on the low C string at frets 0, 4, and 8, saying each note name and degree aloud.
Build a phrase that lets B# on open string 6 ring, then connect it to the nearest E root and two other arpeggio tones.
Connect the E root positions on strings 6 through 1 at frets 4, 11, 6, 1, 9, and 4, adding the nearest arpeggio tone between each pair of roots.
