CANCELLATION

Please be absolutely sure that you can attend the dates and wish to fully participate in the retreat before confirming your booking. Participants who cancel retreat registration before the start date may notify Lumica Retreats by email. Any refund will be based on the date of the written cancellation request received by Lumica Retreats (see Refund Policy below).

Lumica Retreats accepts no responsibility for cancellation, delays, changes, or losses caused by acts of God, war, threat of war, closure of airports, civil strife, natural disasters, accidents, or any other events beyond our control. This includes injuries, illnesses, medical or psychiatric conditions of participants developed during or subsequent to the retreat, as well as loss of, or damage to, personal property during the retreat.

In the unlikely event that a Lumica Retreats retreat is canceled by Lumica Retreats, 100% of the payment will be refunded, or an alternative retreat placement will be offered according to the circumstances. Where an enrollment is canceled by a participant for any reason, the deposit and/or administrative fees are not refundable.

If a participant drops out after the retreat has begun, there will not be a refund (see Refund Policy below).

Lumica Retreats accepts no responsibility for flight costs in the event of cancellation of retreats. The organization is not liable for any flight cancellation, rescheduling, delays, or other travel expenses.

Participants retain control and direction over all their physical activities and voluntarily assume full liability and accept the risk of harm, including physical injury and discomfort, as a result of their participation in activities during the program.

However, you are responsible for taking preventative measures/action - i.e., be sensible - if it hurts, causes any pain or strain - do not do it. The participant is entirely and solely responsible for their own belongings/valuables.

It is the responsibility of the participant to inform Lumica Retreats of any change of address, contact phone number, or email address, both before and after receipt of the training, products, or goods (i.e., retreat correspondence components).

Please note that our preferred method of contact for participants is by email, so care should be taken to provide a current, valid email address.
