YouTube Content Disclaimer

1. Not Medical Advice

The content available on this channel — including yoga, somatic movement, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing videos — is intended for general educational and wellness purposes only. It is not a substitute for advice, diagnosis, or treatment from a licensed physician or other qualified healthcare provider. Always consult your doctor or healthcare provider before beginning any new exercise, movement, breathwork, or wellness practice, particularly if you are pregnant, have a pre-existing medical condition, or are recovering from injury or illness.

If you are experiencing a medical or mental health emergency, contact emergency services or a licensed professional directly. Nothing on this channel establishes a doctor-patient or therapist-client relationship.

2. Assumption of Risk

Participation in yoga, somatic movement, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing practices carries some inherent risk, including but not limited to physical strain, injury, dizziness, or emotional release. By practicing along with any video on this channel, you acknowledge these risks and voluntarily assume full responsibility for your own physical and emotional wellbeing. You agree to listen to your body, work within your own physical limitations, and stop any activity that causes pain, discomfort, or distress.

3. Release of Liability

By using this channel's content, you agree to release Gaia Mariani and Well & Whole from liability for ordinary negligence to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of your state. This release does not apply to claims arising from gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct, as such waivers are not enforceable in many jurisdictions, including California.

4. In-Person Retreats, Ceremonies & Private Sessions

This online disclaimer applies to YouTube video content only. It does not replace the signed liability waiver and informed consent forms required for in-person retreats, ceremonies, and private sessions, which are provided separately at the time of booking.

5. Comments & Community

Well & Whole welcomes comments and engagement on its videos, provided they remain respectful and on-topic. Well & Whole reserves the right to remove or restrict comments that are offensive, promotional, or off-topic, and is not responsible for content posted by third parties.
