How do you Ankify knowledge like that? Or, to be specific, what's on the other side of those cards in Anki?

I make cloze texts involving the habit.

Example:

  • Front: You should take...

  • Back: a breath, a stance, take up space, take your time and keep stil

But for me the remembering of the text is less important than to be reminded of the habit at all. There wouldn't have to be page B. I'd just rate how well I did the habit. The cloze is just a quick check of how well I remember the key instructions.
