FIRST & FOREMOST: Your experience here begins in the heart. This is a safe, inclusive space of non-judgment. Guests and participants are expected to hold each other in compassionate regard, and to interact with each other with respect. The intention behind these guidelines helps to create a world where we can truly thrive together – nature included. Oneness consciousness is about being aware and mindful as to how we affect ourselves, others, the space around us and nature.

To organize and advance as human beings, we must first learn to take responsibility for ourselves, our actions and the impact we make on the spaces and individuals we interact with. A clear space within creates a clear space on the outside. Change starts from within.

In consideration of and in exchange for being permitted to participate in the DREAMjunction retreat organized by 2863602 ONTARIO INC. (Symbio) on Saturday, July 29th, 2023 and/or use of the property, facilities and services made available by Morning Dew Meadows (4875 Sideline 12, Claremont, ON, L0H-1H0), I acknowledge, appreciate, and agree that I am voluntarily participating in the events, exercises, and practices of the DREAMjunction retreat, and I agree to all of the following:

1. AGREEMENT TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. I agree to observe and obey all posted rules and warnings including verbal and further agree to follow any oral instructions or directions given by the employees, associates, facilitators, representatives, agents, or volunteers of 2863602 ONTARIO INC. If, however, I observe any unusual significant hazard during my presence or participation, I will remove myself from participation and bring such to the attention of the nearest representative immediately.

   I declare that I will always apply the techniques taught, including but not limited to breathing exercises and physical exercises, in a safe environment and unforced. I understand that the breathing exercise has a profound effect and should be practiced in the way it is explained. I will never practice the techniques before or during driving, diving, swimming, taking a bath or any other environment/place where it might be dangerous to faint.

2. GUEST RESPONSIBILITY & HOUSEKEEPING RULES. This is a “leave no trace and respect the space” event. Treat this space just like your home. Do not wear outdoor shoes inside.

I recognize that bodily injuries and/or death, can occur in sports or activities involving height or motion, the activities including but not limited to breath work, meditation, dancing, yoga, training routines, running, climbing, hiking and other physical exercises, and may be caused by terrain, facilities, temperature exposure/changes, weather conditions, forces of nature, civil unrest, condition of participants, equipment, breathing exercises, lack of hydration, injuries inflicted by animals, insects, plants, vehicles, or other factors. While particular rules, equipment, and personal discipline may reduce this risk, the risk of injury still does exist. I KNOWINGLY AND FREELY ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS, both known and unknown, EVEN IF ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF 2863602 ONTARIO INC., and their employees, associates, facilitators, representatives, agents, or volunteers.
