7. Retreat Policies

Leaving the Retreat Early

If you choose to leave the retreat before your reserved stay is over, no full or partial refunds will be available. You will be responsible for arranging transportation offsite. 

Travel Delays and Disruptions

Delays and cancellations happen, it is recommended that you make sure you have plenty of time to make connecting flights, so that you arrive on time the first day of your retreat. Traveling can be a long process, so traveling a day before your retreat begins is recommended. 

If you miss your flight or it is cancelled, and you will arrive after the beginning of our first full day ceremony (Day 2) we will not be able to allow you to join the group and you will not receive a refund. We have this policy to protect the energy and integrity of the group space and experience. We are not responsible for financial losses due to travel delays, flight cancellations, border closings, illness, medical issues, personal matters, visa status, or acts of God.

Venue Cancellation or Force Majeure

In the rare event that a retreat is cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control — including but not limited to venue cancellation, natural disasters, public health emergencies, government restrictions, or other force majeure events — participants will receive either:

• A full refund of all retreat fees paid, OR
• A credit toward a future retreat within one calendar year

We are not responsible for any costs incurred by participants in the event of cancellation due to circumstances beyond our control, including but not limited to: non-refundable flights, hotel accommodations, rental cars, lost wages, or other travel-related expenses.

We strongly recommend all participants purchase travel insurance that covers trip cancellation and interruption, including cancellations due to vendor or supplier failure.

Behavior Guidelines and Rules

We respect and value your retreat experience, healing processes, and personal boundaries, and expect that you will do the same toward our staff and your fellow guests. We have a zero tolerance policy for certain behaviors that are harmful, disruptive, or dangerous for the group.

Cell Phones and Social Media

Plant medicine retreats are designed to create a safe space for disconnection from the distractions of the outside world so that we can go inward. Nothing is more disruptive to this process than cell phones and social media. It is a vital component of the healing process to disconnect from our devices as much as possible during the retreat. Our suggestion is to check in with your people when you arrive, and turn off your phone for the duration of the retreat. We know this may not be possible or desirable for everyone, so we ask that you use discretion with devices, laptops, and cell phones whenever possible. 

Devices are not permitted in ceremony spaces, yoga rooms, during meals, workshops, or meetings. Any gathering with the group requires our full attention and we ask that you please respect this request and refrain from using your device in these shared spaces. The best choice is to leave it in your room.

• Posting private or personal images or information about the retreat staff or other guests on social media without permission is not tolerated and could result in removal from the retreat. Please get consent to take photos of others, and to post photos of others publicly. Not everyone is out of the psychedelic closet. 
• Photos are not allowed of the ceremony spaces or during ceremony, and it is not allowed to listen to music or use headphones during ceremony. Please do not bring phones or cameras to ceremony.
