If you need to cancel the booking request, you must provide written notice so that it is received by bWithin before January 2, 2025, via email to bianca@b-within.com and lynn@lynnmull.com. If bWithin receives the cancellation notice prior to January 2, 2025 and the Retreat Fee has been paid in full, you may elect to either: (i) receive a refund of fifty percent (50%) of the Retreat Fee Balance actually received by the Retreat Hosts from you; or (ii) request that the amount of the Retreat Fee Balance paid by you is credited towards the fees in connection with your participation in a future retreat held by bWithin and/or Lynn Mull (“Alternate Retreat”). If you elect to receive a credit to an Alternate Retreat, you acknowledge and agree to use the credit for an Alternative Retreat taking place within one year from the Retreat start date, and you are responsible for any additional fees and/or costs in connection with same. If bWithin fails to receive your cancellation notice prior to January 2, 2025, you acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for the Retreat Fee in full, and where the Retreat Fee already has been paid in full, you are not entitled to a refund of the Retreat Fee, in whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may submit a written request to bWithin and Lynn Mull via email, as set forth above, to transfer your booking to another individual.

Cancellation by the Retreat Hosts Confirmation of your booking request does not necessarily mean that the Retreat is confirmed to run. In order for the Retreat to take place, we require a minimum of six (6) participants. We reserve the right to cancel the Retreat for any reason, but will not cancel the Retreat less than thirty (30) days before the Retreat start date except for Force Majeure.

Under no circumstances are the Retreat Hosts responsible for any incidental or consequential losses that you may have incurred as a result of booking the Retreat, such as, without limitation, non-refundable transportation, accommodations and/or lodging costs, loss of earnings or loss of enjoyment.
