1. Nature of Services

Simply Mindful provides holistic wellness coaching, mindfulness guidance, meditation practices, lifestyle support, and educational resources.
These services are not medical, not psychological, and not a substitute for licensed therapy, medical care, or emergency support.

You understand that:

  • I do not diagnose, treat, or cure any physical or mental condition.

  • All coaching is strictly for personal growth, empowerment, and wellness support.

  • You are responsible for your own choices, actions, and results.

Simply Mindful does not guarantee outcomes, transformation timelines, or specific results.

3. Payment & Refund Policy

All payments for coaching services, sessions, courses, or downloadable products are:

  • non-transferable

Once a program begins or a digital product is delivered, no refunds are offered.

Payment plans must be completed in full.

4. Scheduling & Cancellations

To respect both your time and mine:

  • Sessions may be rescheduled with 24 hours’ notice

  • Cancellations made within 24 hours or no-shows will result in a forfeited session

  • Missed sessions are not refunded or extended

If I (the coach) must cancel due to emergency, your session will be rescheduled promptly.
