I agree to make Sarah Clark aware of any injuries or conditions I am experiencing or have a history with, as well as any medical recommendations from my doctor(s) and/or therapists regarding physical movement, exercise, and/or psychological practices such as meditation.
I understand that physical contact with Sarah or other participants may be offered during this retreat. Though Sarah may offer this kind of contact, she entirely understands that some people prefer to decline it for any number of reasons, and this completely allowed and welcomed. I understand that it is my right and responsibility to explicitly express to Sarah Clark & fellow participants if, at any time, I do not wish for such physical contact.
