​

• Operate in a spirit of kindness, harmony, compassion, respect, grace and empathy.

• Intend to be engaged in a spirit of well-being. 

  • To protect the cohesion and spirit of the group, I intend to attend at least 70% of the activities; for events I don't attend,  I will bow out graciously without disrupting the group.

  • No use of drugs, smoking, or vaping

• Respect the space, programming, and intent of the retreat for *wholistic wellness to: Escape, Elevate, Enrich, & Empower 

  • Understanding wellness retreats differ from a typical vacay.

• Come with open minds:  allow yourself to change your mind 

• Assume positive intent from each participant

• Actively listen, be curious, validate, and seek first to understand and then be understood.

• Tough on ideas, soft on people

• Everyone participates, and no one dominates

• Focus on people, not phones; choose to be present

• Disagree without being disagreeable

•  Maintain a level of confidentiality when fellow participants share their experiences.

•  Be mindful of timeliness and punctuality: Consider the group's needs

​

Let us therefore, make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.
