DMSC PROGRAM – TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Here you can find the Terms and Conditions for the “Dharana Mentorship & Spiritual Counseling (DMSC)” that Tobi Warzinek (“The Coach”, “Mentor”, “Counselor”, “Tobi”) offers on behalf of the PHUKET MEDITATION CO., LTD. (“The Company”, “We”). Please read them carefully before booking a single, or multiple sessions. Prior to receiving sessions, the client (“You”) must agree to the Terms & Conditions below. In entering into an agreement with the Company and Tobi Warzinek for the supply of services, each and every contracting party agrees to abide by all the exemptions and provisions herein contained. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us (info@phuket-meditation.com) – we are always happy to be of assistance.

1 General Terms

Tobi arranges the coaching schedule together with you. You can book sessions up to 3 months in advance. With a complete purchase of Dharana Mentorship & Spiritual Counseling Sessions, you confirm that you agree to all the Terms & Conditions outlined in this document.

1.1 Format of Sessions

Face to face (venue by mutual agreement), via “Zoom” (https://zoom.us), “FaceTime” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FaceTime) or on “Signal” (https://signal.org) . Both you and Tobi are responsible for ensuring that you are available for consultation at agreed times. The length of each session is usually between 45 and 60 Minutes unless you agree otherwise. Tobi will recommend the frequency of sessions based on a professional assessment of your requirements. This recommendation, or plan, is not binding and may be adjusted anytime.

1.2 Session Fees

In accordance with our current per session fee outline on the main DCMP website (https://phuket-meditation.com/mentoring-coaching/). The coach will confirm the number of sessions and the fees in written form before the coaching commences. Complete payment and refund information is listed in section 2 of these Terms & Conditions.

1.3 Dates and Times of Sessions

At the beginning of the program the coach confirms dates and times of the first and subsequent sessions directly with the client in written form. We can rearrange sessions anytime in accordance with section 1.4. In some cases, Tobi may provide consultations on a session-by-session basis, given that no specific numbers or dates are available. This is the case with the first session by default.

1.4 Rearranging Sessions

If a client needs to rearrange an appointment, he/she should provide at least 24 hours notice. If you cancel anytime before 24 hours prior to your appointment, Tobi will reschedule the session at no additional cost. We will not give refunds to clients who haven’t used their coaching sessions and/or didn’t provide any cancellation notice.

In some circumstances the coach may need to rearrange an appointment. In this case he will give the client prior written notice. We will subsequently reschedule the session at no additional cost.

All 5- or 10-session tickets remain valid for 100 days counting from the date of purchase. To find out your exact expiry-date, check your invoice or ask the coach. After the time-frame of 100 days, your ticket becomes invalid. If the coach rearranges a session, the validity of your ticket will be extended accordingly.

1.5 Between Sessions

In between sessions the client may contact the coach by chat or e-mail in order to seek clarification or for administrative purposes (e.g. where a client needs to rearrange a coaching session or make a payment). We may also provide further coaching in between sessions at an additional cost. In such a case, however, the coach will always advise clients in advance. We won’t impose any charges without your express consent.

1.6 Early Termination

In exceptional circumstances the coach can decide to terminate the service early (e.g. illness or unavailability or other commitments, inappropriate behavior by the client, actual or potential conflict of interest, or other reasons). In such a situation we will give the client reasonable notice of termination and refund any advance payments for outstanding sessions in accordance with what is mentioned in section 2.3 below.

1.7 Confidentiality

We will treat our client’s personal or business information as strictly confidential. We will not disclose any information to a third party without the client’s express prior permission. However, if the client reports abuse or threatens to harm him/herself or someone else, the confidentiality agreement becomes limited in this capacity. Furthermore, if a court orders the coach to provide information or to testify, he will do so to the extent that the law requires.

1.8 Privacy and Security

We do our very best to secure your information (e.g. by using end-to-end encrypted services and strong password practices). This will require our clients to use certain services in order to maintain a good degree of privacy and protection. Concerning this, the coach will introduce and instruct each client at the beginning of the coaching program. Although we take adequate precaution, the use of technology is unfortunately not completely secure. There are always risks of confidentiality in the use of email, text, phone, Skype, Zoom, Signal, FaceTime and other technologies. Thus it is also the client’s responsibility to keep passwords and information secure.

1.9 Mental Health

All coaching services and communication email or otherwise, delivered by PHUKET MEDITATION Co., LTD. and Tobi Warzinek as well as information on the website are meant to help clients identify the areas in their life that may obstruct personal and spiritual development. However, the DMSC Program is not to be confused with professional medical care. Even though it may augment traditional medical therapy, our work is meant to be done when major emotional and psychological wounds are already healing or healed.

We are not offering our services as a substitute for professional mental health care or medical care. We do not intend to diagnose, treat or cure any serious mental health or medical conditions. Tobi Warzinek is not acting as a mental health counselor or a medical professional.

The clients are fully responsible for their well-being during and in between the sessions. Furthermore, they are responsible for their own choices and decisions. DMSC Program is not a substitute for medical/clinical counseling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, medical mental health care or substance abuse treatment. It should not be used in place of any form of therapy.

1.10 Coaching & Licenses

Spiritual mentorship and counseling is, at present, an unregulated industry. The mentor is not licensed by any internationally recognized regulator. All comments and ideas that DMSC Program – Phuket Meditation Co., Ltd., 69/509 Moo 1, T. Chalong, A. Mueang, 83130 Phuket Tobi offers are solely for the purpose of aiding clients in achieving their defined goals. Clients have the ability to give or withdraw their informed consent at anytime during the process.

2 Payment & Refund Terms

Tobi Warzinek agrees to provide the service in accordance with the terms, conditions and disclaimers listed here, in return for the fees payable by the client. The client agrees to pay fees for the service based on the terms, conditions and disclaimers listed here. If you disagree with any of the terms and conditions, you can contact us anytime. We can discuss and see if the issues can be resolved before the first coaching session. In conclusion, a completed payment constitutes acceptance of these terms and conditions.

2.1 Payment Gateways

Clients can pay by cash, online with Wise (Formerly TransferWise), Stripe (Credit Card) or directly by bank transfer (only local banks in Thailand). If you request a receipt, we will send one by email unless otherwise requested.

2.2 Payment Times

As the client you need to pay the fees in advance of each coaching session or on receipt of invoice unless otherwise agreed. In case we haven’t received any payment in advance of an appointment, the coach is not obliged to provide the session. If we don’t receive the payment in accordance with the invoice due date, the agreement becomes invalid.

2.3 Cancellations & Refunds

If you cancel a session within the time-frame of 24 hours prior to the appointment, we will neither offer a refund nor reschedule the particular session. You either have to make a new appointment or wait for your next appointment (in case of having purchased multiple sessions).

If you cancel before the time-frame of 24 hours prior to your appointment, we won’t offer a refund but reschedule the session at no additional cost.

Given that you have purchased single or multiple sessions and become unable to use them before your first appointment, we will offer a complete refund minus a processing fee (20% of the full invoice value).

To be eligible, you have to send a written cancellation note to our email info@phuket-meditation.com at least 72 hours prior to your first session.

If you are a no-show and don’t send any notifications (or call), you will loose the session. We won’t offer any refund and you either have to make a new appointment or wait for the next session (in case of having purchased multiple sessions).

In case of an early termination (See 1.6 above) we will offer a full refund of remaining sessions minus a 50% processing fee from the total invoice value.

3 Important Additions

3.1 Responsibilities

The coach will support the client to improve their quality of life and level of spiritual practice in order to achieve their desired outcomes. All comments and ideas the coach offers are solely for the purpose of aiding clients in achieving their defined goals. When clients follow a clear plan in a committed way they can expect to achieve remarkable results. However, you have the sole responsibility for making and executing important decisions in your life. You have the ability to give or withdraw your informed consent at anytime during the process. The mentor has therefore no liability for any loss, damage or perceived failure incurred by any client.

3.2 Changes to the Terms and Conditions

Any changes to these terms and conditions will be effective only if coach and client mutually agree. The coach may change any of these terms or conditions, including the session fees. In this case he will notify the client of the change(s) in written form. If the client consequentially no longer wishes to proceed with further coaching sessions, he/ she may withdraw from the service immediately by giving notice in writing by email or letter. He/she will be entitled to a full refund of any fees paid in advance for coaching sessions not yet provided.

3.3 Governing Law

This contract is governed by the law of Thailand whose courts have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any dispute, disagreement, proceedings or legal claim of any nature relating to the service provided or the contract.

Tobi Warzinek - Meditation Teacher

About Tobi Warzinek

Tobi Warzinek has been working as a spiritual guide and mentor since 2009. His journey started back in 2002 when he entered the Tibetan Buddhist monastery of Rabten Choeling. He spent approximately 7 years in the community as a so-called lay student (Upāsaka). During this time Tobi mainly studied the Tibetan language, mind-training and various meditation methods. Additionally he trained in traditional monastic debate and Buddhist philosophy. In 2011 he subsequently began practicing Thai (Theravada) Buddhist mindtraining within the “Forest Tradition”. Altogether he has dedicated his life to the exploration and refinement of introspection throughout the past 18 years.

Learning how to comprehend, consolidate and direct the powerful creative force of our mind is at the root of Tobi’s work. Nobody seems to enjoy their “monkey-mind”. In fact most use a tremendous amount of energy to avoid facing the chaos within. Various experiences of discomfort and suffering in our life often remind us that we need to change from within. Alternatively we might be overwhelmed by habitual negative patterns.

Over the years Tobi gradually developed and refined a systematic approach to inner calm and profound clarity. It is in such a state, that emotional and social turmoil can naturally heal. Moreover by cultivating greater awareness we develop the strength to break free from old destructive patterns. As a consequence we may create new space for personal and spiritual growth. Awareness is at the base of all our experiences. Knowing how to remain centered while living mindfully leads to spiritual health, balance, happiness and fulfillment.
