Terms of Service


Welcome! By booking a session, class, or service with Gretchen Lakshmi, you agree to the following Terms of Service. These terms are in place to ensure a clear and respectful working relationship.

1. Scope of Services

I offer holistic and intuitive healing services, including but not limited to:

  • Yoga, meditation, Ayurveda
  • Somatic exercises and breathwork
  • Energy work, tarot, and human design readings
  • Trauma-related spiritual guidance

These sessions are intended for personal growth, self-discovery, and emotional support. They do not replace medical, psychological, or legal advice.

2. Not a Licensed Therapist Disclaimer

I am not a licensed therapist, counselor, psychologist, or medical professional. My services provide guidance and support but are not a substitute for professional therapy, mental health treatment, or medical care. If you are experiencing a crisis or require medical attention, please reach out to a qualified healthcare provider.

3. Client Responsibilities

By booking a session, you agree to:

✔ Take responsibility for your own healing process and well-being.
✔ Be open and engaged in the work we do together.
✔ Understand that results vary and healing is a personal journey.

4. Confidentiality Policy

Your privacy is respected, and all sessions are confidential to the extent allowed by law. However, I am legally obligated to report:

  • Threats of harm to yourself or others.
  • Cases of abuse or neglect involving minors or vulnerable adults.

5. Cancellation & Refund Policy

All bookings require upfront payment. No-shows result in forfeited sessions. Reschedules are allowed. Refunds are considered on a case-by-case basis. Full details can be found in the Cancellation & Refund Policy.

6. Liability Waiver

By participating in sessions, you acknowledge that:

  • Healing and personal development are unique to each individual.
  • I am not responsible for any personal, emotional, physical, or financial outcomes.
  • You voluntarily assume any risks associated with engaging in holistic and spiritual work.

7. Right to Refuse Services

I reserve the right to decline or discontinue services if a client behaves in a disrespectful, abusive, or inappropriate manner, or if I believe my services are not a good fit for their needs.

8. Agreement

By booking a session, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms of Service. If you have any questions, please contact me at 814.515.9642 before scheduling.


Cancellation & Refund Policy


Individual Sessions (A La Carte Purchases)

  • Refunds are generally not provided unless an error was made on our part.
  • Refund requests are considered on a case-by-case basis but are not guaranteed.
  • Clients may reschedule their appointment if needed, rather than cancel.
  • If a refund is granted, the refunded amount will be the full session price minus a 3% transaction fee to cover processing costs.


Subscription-Based Sessions

  • Refunds are generally not provided unless due cause is demonstrated and considered on a case-by-case basis.
  • Subscription sessions are discounted based on a commitment to multiple sessions, so refunds are calculated differently than individual sessions.
  • If a subscription is canceled (by the client or by us), the following options apply:

Option 1: Use Remaining Sessions

  • Any remaining unused sessions that were already paid for will remain on file.
  • Clients have up to 6 months to schedule and use these remaining sessions before they expire.
  • If a Certificate Code has expired and there are sessions remaining, please reach out to receive a new code for the remaining sessions.

Option 2: Request a Refund

  • Upon refund approval, if a client opts to receive a refund instead of using the remaining sessions, the refund will be calculated based on the full session rate ($126/session) for all used sessions and the remaining balance will be refunded.
  • Example Scenario:
  • A client paid for a one-month subscription ($390 total paid), covering 4 sessions.
  • They used 2 sessions before canceling.
  • The 2 used sessions are recalculated at the full rate: $126 × 2 = $252.
  • The remaining balance after subtracting the recalculated session cost is: $390 - $252 = $138.
  • The refund amount will be $138 minus a 3% transaction fee ($4.14), making the final refund $133.86.
  • Refunds will be processed through Acuity by Squarespace, Zelle, or another direct deposit method of the client’s choice.


This policy ensures fairness while protecting the integrity of discounted subscription pricing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please reach out before making your purchase.
