code of ethics + terms and conditions

Bliss Boogie

code of ethics

We respectully request that you read the Code of Ethics below before you arrive at Bliss Boogie:

  • Listen for a clear “yes” and be conscious of any changes in consent. YES! A “yes” is a yes and everything else is a “no”.  A “yes” can shift to “maybe” or “no” in one sitting.
  • “No” is a complete sentence. When we hear “no” we should respond with, “Thank you for taking care of yourself.” Just because bliss is available doesn’t mean everyone wants to share it with you, or share it in the way you want.
  • Don’t take someone else’s choice personally! Their reason for saying “no” may be private and have nothing to do with you.
  • Ask before hugging someone. Check their wristband to see what level of touch they’re open to before you approach. Talking about what someone is open to experiencing and exploring with you can be super sexy!
  • Take the time to check in with yourself and others to fully feel the spaces you are creating. It’s easier to avoid breaking boundaries when we are fully embodied and taking the care to stay grounded and clear. Don’t rush in, and stay connected.
  • Making mistakes is part of the road to bliss. It’s how we handle those mistakes that make our lives more blissful. Clean up your mess, listen, and be ready for feedback.
  • Being your WHOLE self is beautiful, and the only way to be. Do that and own it. Being comfortable with where you are on your journey, with room to grow, is the sweet spot.
  • Be honest. Tell the truth if you’re in a relationship, and be clear about your expectations and desires. If you move into a sexual connection, discuss any health risks.
  • Lead and leave with love. Let’s leave one another better than when we got here. When the time comes to complete an interaction, leave yourself and others feeling heard, seen, and honored. Respect yourself, the land, and your tribemates.
 

Safety Is Sexy! Bliss should be available to all of us, and Bliss Boogie is here to create that safe space. 

This is a sober event. The event involves topics that are provocative in nature and at times challenging to process. Bliss will require your body & mind to be fully present!

“As a tribe, we must open our hearts & minds, to level up our collective consciousness.”
Kai Baylis

As a simple yet powerful gesture to thank others for sharing themselves, courageous interactions allow us to know ourselves better. Before you arrive at the event, take the time to meditate on these principles:

  • CONSENT is the first and most important step to sharing Bliss.

  • “YES!” A “yes” means yes, and everything else means “NO.”

  • “Yes” can shift into “Maybe” or “No” at any time. We all need to respect that.

BLESSINGS ON YOUR JOURNEY!
May Bliss boogie bring your deepest, most blissful experience to date.
