Dear Spiritual Being,
Our deepest intention from our heart of hearts is to serve your Spirit in the best possible way.
If you are a Spiritual Seeker it means helping you find your light and integrate your awakening.
If you are a Spiritual Leader / Teacher it means helping you succeed in your Life’s Work by creating powerful systems to find the people you are here to serve & fund your work so you can commit your time fully to your Dharma – the highest potential you are here to offer in this world.
Our heart-based approach is based on Trust, Love, Compassion and Authenticity. If at all there are times when there is miscommunication, misunderstanding or mistakes that happen, because even though we try our best to be impeccable, these things can happen for various reasons, we try our best to resolve any misalignments amicably through open and compassionate dialogue.
Keeping this in mind, our path is to bring balance to the highest spiritual light & teachings with grounded & practical structures that work well in the material 3D world that we express ourselves in. In order for us to survive, thrive and help you succeed in your mission to uplift others, we have to play by the rules and realities of this game.
That means, as a law abiding organization, we have to have legal structures that work well in this world and give us the protection that we need from predatory and ill intentioned elements of society – that are NOT the average loving, caring, beautiful beings we mostly come into contact and work with.
Please keep this in mind as you read these Terms and Conditions and other legal language that you might find on our websites, in our contracts etc, that are written in a language that may sometimes feel hard, confusing & overwhelming to the average person and especially to a more spiritually sensitive soul. The language used here is unfortunately what we need to fall back upon as legal protection in the unlikely event that someone resorts to using a non-compassionate approach.
If you have any questions or concerns as you read any of our legal language, feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] or through the chat widget in the bottom right of the page. We will be more than happy to clarify further as to why we use it & share our deeper spiritually aligned approach.

Methodology.
Our offerings and content posted or shared on social media or other avenues are for general information and entertainment purposes only. Use of our content, or attending a meditation class, healing session, retreat, group mentorship, one-on-one session, or other events offered by SLI, or having an email dialogue or any other interaction with spiritual guide, is not a replacement for or substitute for face-to-face, in-person, qualified medical, psychological, psychiatric, business, financial, or legal advice, diagnosis or treatment.
In providing services, SLI will employ a range of methodologies to suit your personal values and style. You agree to be open-minded and partake in proposed methods. You understand that SLI makes no guarantees as to the outcome of the services, and you hereby acknowledges that SLI is not an employment agent, business manager, financial analyst or psychotherapist, physician, or your pharmacist.

Donations received are used at our discretion but within our stated objective to support our offerings.
Compensation.
You agree to compensate SLI according to the payment schedule as offered by us. The parties here to agree that your failure to make or permit payments will cause harm to SLI for which damages would be difficult, if not impossible, to measure, including expenses incurred in connection with losses resulting from any delay. Accordingly, as liquidated damages for losses reasonably expected to be incurred (and not as a penalty) SLI shall charge a 5% (five percent) late penalty to all balances that are not paid when due.

What that means for you:
if you have shown up or watched all the lessons, and completed the exercises, and has not received value or decides that the program isn't right for them for any reason at all, you can simply send SLI an email at [email protected]. If you submit the refund form provided by SLI, confirming you have completed the required exercises, we will review and process the refund as soon as possible. SLI may also ask what didn't work for you to continually learn and improve our offerings.
Refunds are processed as soon as possible. Unless otherwise specified, refunds will be issued in the form of a credit back to the same payment method used to make the original purchase on the site. The time that it takes for a refund credit to appear on your account may vary based on the form of payment used.
Other Programs Unless Explicitly Specified
You shall be responsible for the payment amounts, on the payment dates, as offered by SLI. If you cancel any service for any reason whatsoever, you shall not be entitled to a refund.
Chargebacks and Payment Security.
To the extent that you provide SLI with credit card information for payment on your account, SLI shall be authorized to charge your credit card(s) for any unpaid charges. If you use a multiple payment plan to make payments to SLI, SLI shall be authorized to make all charges at the time they are due and is not required to seek separate authorization to do so. You hereby agree not to make any chargebacks to SLI account. You further agree it shall not cancel the credit card provided as security without concurrent notice to SLI at the time such credit card is cancelled and the furnishing of replacement credit card information. You are responsible for any fees associated with recouping payment on chargebacks and any other fees in connection with SLI collection of payment hereunder.
