Terms and Conditions (T&C)

for services offered by Dr. Lukas Bögge

These Terms and Conditions apply to all services offered by Dr. Lukas Bögge, in particular MBSR courses, workshops, and individual sessions, for both private clients and business clients.

Participation in MBSR courses requires a mandatory personal introductory meeting. This may take place by phone, video call, or in person.

Registration is made via the registration form or by email and is binding.

A course place is only considered confirmed once the registration has been accepted and the course fee has been paid in full.

Places are allocated in the order in which registrations are received.

Bookings for business clients are made individually based on a specific offer. A booking becomes binding upon written confirmation.

Business clients within the meaning of these Terms and Conditions are natural or legal persons acting in the exercise of their commercial or self-employed professional activity.

Course fees are due in full upon receipt of the invoice without deduction.

Fees include participation in the course and any materials provided.

Cancellation must be made in writing (e.g., by email).

• Up to 14 days before the start of the course: cancellation fee of €50
• Less than 14 days before the start: full course fee applies

A replacement participant may be provided upon prior agreement.

In the case of early withdrawal from the course, there is generally no entitlement to a refund.

Cancellation must be made in writing (e.g., by email).

• Up to 4 weeks before the start: €150 administrative fee
• Up to 2 weeks before the start: 50% of the agreed fee
• Thereafter: 100% of the agreed fee

The trainer reserves the right to cancel or modify events for important reasons, in particular in cases of insufficient participant numbers (generally fewer than 6 participants), illness, or force majeure.

In such cases, any fees already paid will be refunded in full. No further claims can be made.

There is no entitlement to replacement or alternative dates. However, the trainer will make reasonable efforts to offer an alternative where possible.

Events are conducted either online or in person. The format is determined and communicated in advance. A change of format will only take place with the consent of the participants

Participation in online events requires a stable internet connection and appropriate technical equipment.

The use of camera and microphone is recommended for active participation, especially in group exercises.

Participants are responsible for ensuring a suitable and interruption-free environment.

Recording of sessions by participants is not permitted.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

There is no statutory right of withdrawal for the booking of the offered MBSR courses (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction) pursuant to Section 312g (2) No. 9 of the German Civil Code (BGB).

The offered services constitute leisure-related activities provided for a specific date or period of time. The courses take place on fixed dates and times, with limited participant capacity and within fixed groups.

This applies both to in-person courses and to live online courses conducted in real time with scheduled participation.

All materials and content provided as part of the courses are protected by copyright.

Reproduction, distribution, or use of any kind without explicit permission is not permitted.

Photography, video, or audio recording by participants during sessions is not allowed.

Participation is at the participant’s own responsibility.

Participation requires sufficient psychological and physical stability.

The courses offered are not a substitute for medical or psychotherapeutic treatment.

Individuals with psychological or physical challenges are generally welcome, provided they feel stable in everyday life and are able to participate responsibly.

In cases of more severe or acute conditions, participants are advised to seek professional advice prior to participation.

In individual cases, suitability for participation may be assessed together during the introductory meeting, and alternative forms of support may be recommended.

To ensure a safe and supportive environment for all participants, the trainer reserves the right to review, together with the participant, whether continued participation is appropriate, even during the course.

In individual cases, this may lead to participation being adjusted or discontinued.

This applies in particular if a participant’s behavior significantly disrupts the course process or negatively affects the group dynamic, or if essential course agreements are not respected.

Participants act on their own responsibility and are expected to respect their physical and psychological limits.

All exercises are voluntary.

Participants agree to treat personal information and contributions shared by other participants as confidential and not to disclose them to third parties.

Personal data collected is used exclusively for the organization and delivery of the services.

The website’s Privacy Policy applies.

Audio recordings may be made by the trainer during the course.

This applies in particular to:

• audio recordings of guided meditations
• and, in individual cases, recordings of selected course sequences for professional supervision

These recordings serve the following purposes:

• quality assurance and professional supervision
• provision of practice and meditation material for participants
• use of meditation recordings in other courses

Meditation recordings generally contain only the voice of the trainer.

In recordings of course sequences, participant contributions may occasionally be included. These recordings are used exclusively for supervision purposes and are not published.

Recordings are made transparently and will be announced in advance.

Participants may object to being included in recordings. In such cases, an appropriate solution will be found to allow continued participation in the course.
