Wellness Disclaimer

Important Notice

The wellness services offered by I AM BEING — including cacao ceremonies, sound baths, yoga, reiki, breathwork, and meditation — are holistic wellbeing practices. They are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical or psychological condition, and are not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

If you have any concerns about your physical or mental health, please consult a qualified healthcare professional before attending any of our sessions or consuming our products.

Cacao Sessions

Cacao naturally contains caffeine and theobromine.

Before your session

1. Remember that cacao contributes to your daily caffeine intake. If you are sensitive to caffeine, avoid other caffeinated drinks before the session.
2. There is no need to fast. Please eat and drink as you normally would unless a healthcare professional has advised otherwise.
3. Please do not attend under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs.
4. Contact us before attending if you have any food allergies or intolerances. Full ingredient and allergen information is available on request.

Please seek medical advice before consuming cacao if:

1. You are pregnant or breastfeeding.
2. You have a heart condition, high blood pressure or a known sensitivity to caffeine.
3. You take prescription medication or have been advised to limit caffeine or chocolate.
4. You have a medical condition and are unsure whether cacao is suitable for you.

Please ask your GP, midwife or pharmacist for advice. We cannot advise on medication interactions or adjust the serving to make a potential interaction safe.

Drinking cacao is always optional. Please let us know if you would prefer to take part without it.

After your session

You can eat and drink normally after the session. If you feel unwell, please tell the facilitator. Seek medical help if any symptoms are severe or do not settle.

Sound Sessions

Our sound sessions use a range of acoustic instruments at different tones and volumes. They are intended to create a restful experience, but everyone responds to sound differently.

Before your session

1. Please do not attend under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs.
2. If you have tinnitus, sound sensitivity, a hearing condition or a hearing device, contact us before attending. We can discuss where you sit and whether ear protection may help.
3. If particular sounds are known to trigger seizures, please speak to your doctor or epilepsy specialist before attending.
4. If you are pregnant or have a medical condition and are unsure whether the session is suitable, please ask a healthcare professional.

You remain in control throughout the session. You are welcome to change position, sit further away from the instruments, use ear protection or leave the room at any time.

These sessions are offered for relaxation and general wellbeing. They are not medical treatment and this information does not replace advice from a qualified healthcare professional.

Yoga

The practice of yoga involves physical movement, stretching, and exercise, which carry an inherent risk of injury. By participating in a yoga class, you acknowledge and accept these risks.

Please consult your physician before beginning any new exercise programme — including yoga — particularly if you have any medical conditions, injuries, or are pregnant. Always listen to your body, work within your own limits, and inform the instructor of any concerns or limitations before the session begins.

I AM BEING and its instructors are not liable for any injuries, damages, or losses that may occur during or as a result of participation. Participation is entirely at your own risk.

Reiki

Reiki is a gentle complementary wellbeing practice intended to support relaxation and personal wellbeing. It is not a medical treatment and should not replace professional medical advice, diagnosis or care.

I AM BEING Reiki does not diagnose health conditions, prescribe medication or recommend changes to treatment provided by a qualified healthcare professional. If you have concerns about your physical or mental health, please speak to an appropriate healthcare professional.

By booking or taking part in a Reiki session, you confirm that you understand the nature of the practice and choose to participate voluntarily.

Photography and Media at Events

Photographs or recordings may occasionally be captured during events and ceremonies for promotional purposes, unless participants request otherwise. Please notify the facilitator before the session begins if you do not wish to be photographed or filmed.

Personal Responsibility

Participation in all I AM BEING sessions is entirely voluntary. Participants are responsible for disclosing any relevant medical or mental health concerns before attending and for making their own informed decisions about participation.

If you have any questions or concerns before attending, please reach out — we are always happy to help. Contact us at hello@iambeing.co.uk.
