I understand that if any of the mentioned issues apply to me, I must inform the facilitator. If I participate without sharing this information, I do so at my own risk and will be responsible for any consequences. I take full responsibility for my health, both emotional and physical, and I confirm that I am in good condition for the Breathwork session. I acknowledge that I must be free of alcohol and substances for at least 24 hours before the session, and participating while under their influence is my risk.

I acknowledge that Breathwork is an alternative healing method, and I understand that it should not replace conventional medical treatment. I have sought advice from a healthcare professional regarding any physical, mental, or emotional concerns that might impact my health or judgment during and after the session. I recognize that engaging in Breathwork may induce altered states of consciousness and could potentially surface past pain or trauma. While Breathwork has the potential to facilitate healing of emotional wounds, I understand that there is no certainty I will achieve this awareness during the sessions.

I accept full responsibility for getting medical advice if I think I have a health issue. I understand that I take on all risks from my participation, including any injuries or problems that may happen. I also release “Breathwork” from any claims related to my experience in their programs or sessions.

By purchasing any of Huminga's diverse services, I accept this waiver and its conditions willingly and understand the implications involved. I hereby confirm that I have thoroughly read and fully agree to the waiver above and important information available on this website, which outlines the inherent risks associated with breathwork practices.

Important information

Please be advised that participating in our sessions may lead to a variety of experiences, which might include sensations such as emotional release, past experiences, past pain, trauma, tingling, dizziness, trembling, shaking, body temperature fluctuations, and tetany. (Tetany is characterized by cramping, tingling, numbness, or a sensation of paralysis in your hands and feet, which caused by an imbalance of carbon dioxide and oxygen). Remember, all sensations are completely safe and temporary, so there is no need for concern. You may also observe emotional responses along with a feeling of energy coursing through your body. By choosing to book any of our workshops or sessions, you acknowledge and accept the following terms outlined in our waiver above. Your participation implies an understanding of the potential effects and an acceptance of personal responsibility for your experience during the offerings.

It is important to approach these experiences with an open mind and heart to explore your personal journey, while also being aware of your limitations and health conditions. If at any point you feel uncomfortable, it is advisable to communicate with the facilitator for guidance. Your well-being is our priority, and we encourage a safe and supportive environment for all participants.

Recommendations given are not medical diagnoses or treatment plans. For any health questions, please talk to a qualified healthcare professional. Our suggestions on physical and mental well-being, such as exercises or daily practices, are for educational purposes only and should not replace medical advice. Everyone's health needs are different; therefore, it is best to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice. Participating in breathwork and similar activities carries physical and mental risks. Be aware of your own limits and proceed with caution. If you have any doubts, please consult your healthcare provider before starting breathwork sessions.

Please do not participate in breathwork if you have the following contraindications. Which include various health issues such as pregnancy, asthma, and serious heart problems, including a history of heart attacks. Other important conditions are glaucoma, uncontrolled high blood pressure, detached retina, psychosis, epilepsy, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, especially if diagnosed. Caution is advised for those hospitalized for mental health issues, emotional crises, or severe PTSD in the past ten years. Considerations also include osteoporosis, history of strokes or seizures, family history of aneurysms, chronic illnesses, and intolerance to low oxygen, cancer, and difficulties with impulse control, hypoglycemia, and diabetes. Individuals on blood thinners like Coumadin or those with severe infections should avoid participation. Those with depression, chronic depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder should consult a healthcare provider before starting breathwork. This practice can lead to strong emotional releases, so it is important to participate with a clear mind and body. Avoid breathwork if you have used alcohol, drugs, or psychedelics in the past 24 hours, or if you have fasted for more than 12 hours. Your safety and well-being are our top priorities, and following these guidelines is important for a positive experience.

Engaging in this practice is a deeply experiential process that can lead to significant and intense emotional releases. It is essential to approach breathwork with a clear mind and body; therefore, participation is not recommended for anyone who has consumed alcohol, drugs, or psychedelics in the past 24 hours or has undergone an extended fast for more than 12 hours. Your well-being and safety are our top priorities, and adhering to these guidelines is crucial for a beneficial experience.
