Please read carefully what is and is not included in your retreat package and view all encompassing on the website.

GENERAL TERMS & CONDITIONS:
Slumber Party: Women's Sexuality Retreat is designed to provide educational information, discussions, and activities related to women's sexuality. It is not intended to replace professional therapy or medical advice.
The retreat participants are responsible for their own well-being and should consult with a qualified professional for any specific health or mental health concerns. The facilitators, organizers, and staff are not liable for any physical, emotional, or psychological injuries or damages that may occur during or as a result of the retreat.
All information gathered during the registration process is confidential. There is no sexual touching or public nudity required or permitted as part of the retreat. Additionally, all participants agree that all information shared by participants at the retreat is kept strictly confidential both by the group leaders and other participants.
Participation in any activities or discussions during the retreat is voluntary. Participants are responsible for assessing their own comfort level and boundaries and may choose to opt-out of any activity at any time without any judgment or consequences.
The retreat is designed to explore and celebrate various aspects of female sexuality in a safe and consensual environment. However, it is important to note that this retreat may not be suitable for women who have experienced sexual trauma or have been sexually abused. We deeply respect the sensitivities and healing processes associated with such experiences, and our primary concern is to ensure the emotional well-being of all participants. Engaging in discussions or activities that touch upon sensitive topics related to past sexual trauma might inadvertently trigger or retraumatize individuals. Therefore, we kindly advise those who have experienced sexual trauma to seek alternative therapeutic approaches that are specifically tailored to address their needs. We encourage everyone to prioritize their emotional health and make informed decisions that best serve their healing journey.
The retreat organizers reserve the right to make changes to the retreat schedule, activities, or facilitators if necessary, without prior notice.
