DISCLAIMER

*By enrolling in any Lucid Moon courses, programs, or retreats, you are agreeing to our disclaimer and informed consent.

Disclaimer:

This retreat in no way promotes, condones, or facilitates illegal activity. Non-ordinary states can be achieved in many ways (for example, breathwork, vision quests, dreamwork as well as the use of psychedelics**.) Any plant or substance can be microdosed (homeopathic remedies are a great example of this). This retreat is strictly for educational and harm reduction purposes only. If you choose to use psychedelics, be aware that these substances are illegal in many countries. By enrolling into this program, you are agreeing that Lucid Moon takes no responsibilities for your actions.

This retreat does not provide credentials or training for therapists, coaches, and clinicians to provide psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy services. Largely these services are illegal.

Mental & Physical Health

Participant will complete the Medical Information Form (Pre-Assessment) and certifies that he/she does not have any medical or physical conditions which would impair or affect his/her ability to engage in any activities or which would cause any risk of harm to Participant, other participants and/or Lucid moon or otherwise endanger Participant’s health while attending Lucid Moon events.  Participant further agrees that it is Participant’s responsibility to maintain the accuracy and contemporaneousness of the Medical Information Form (Pre-Assessment).  Lucid Moon will assume that Participant’s Psychological and Medical Information is correct until Participant files an updated or corrected form.  The medical information is fully incorporated by reference within this Agreement.

Participant is aware that certain activities he/she may engage in during the Program are physically, emotionally and mentally stressful.  Participant agrees to assume full responsibility for his/her own physical, emotional and mental health and hold harmless Lucid Moon from any physical, emotional and/or mental damage that may be attributed to Lucid Moon’s activities.  Participant further holds harmless Lucid Moon from any and all loss, injury, damage or cost which may arise out of or in connection with participation in the Program.

General

Lucid Moon is guiding participants to access transpersonal states for their own transformation and for the healing of the collective, which may be utilized through a variety of modalities such as breath work, fasting, vision quests, shamanic journeying, drumming, trance dancing, as well as assisting individuals to make informed decisions regarding legal or illegal use of psychedelic medicine.

Enrolling in this course does not grant participant permission to engage, give, sell or otherwise participate in illegal psychedelic activities of any kind. Discussion of psychedelics is for educational purposes to assist friends and clients in making educated decisions before choosing to engage with these substances.  Participants will never promote a psychedelic experience of any kind (even if it is legal), as they understand the medical and psychological risks of doing so. Participants understand that every individual is responsible for their own decisions and risk-taking. As participants become more educated, it is their job to assist others in harm reduction and help them make educated choices for themselves.

Participants will not hold Lucid Moon responsible for any mishap that might occur to him or herself or others in any transpersonal state. Participants have thoroughly researched the contraindications of entering into transpersonal states (with and without psychedelics) and fully understand the risks involved.

Informed Consent

Please be aware that this course is for educational purposes only. This is not a substitute for traditional psychotherapy or medical procedures. This course is designed to provide education from our personal and professional experiences. If you are experiencing significant issues, please seek medical attention.

Limitations

The curriculum of this retreat is oriented towards personal and spiritual development. The techniques or modalities are in no way a replacement for traditional therapy. Much of the information in this course could be applied to your on-going therapy, if you are currently utilizing mental health services.

We believe that providing education, peer-support, and harm reduction is important for this field. Again, this course also does not train/certify therapists, clinicians, or coaches to provide/facilitate illegal activities.

By signing up for this retreat, you are agreeing that you understand the purpose and limitations of this course.

Looking forward to taking this journey with you!
