That sounds like a gentle way to honor your commitments. Imagine the contract as a simple list of intentions—wake up, stretch, breathe, nourish—each a promise to yourself. Then, when a busy day or a stray craving comes up, treat it like a brief negotiation: “I’m still willing to honor my practice, but I’ll shift the timing a bit.” It keeps the rhythm flowing without turning routine into rigid tyranny. Just remember to breathe through the negotiations, so the contract feels like a supportive guide, not a strict judge.

That’s a solid tweak—setting a clear deadline gives the routine a firm frame. Just remember to keep a tiny cushion for the unexpected, so the contract feels like a supportive guide rather than a hard wall. It’s all about honoring yourself while staying flexible enough to breathe through life’s little surprises.
