The Nourishing Non-Monogamy Practice Community:
Group Agreements to Build a Strong Container of Trust
This membership is a living, breathing community—one where we show up not to be perfect, but to practice. Together, we’re going to question old scripts, explore new ways of relating, and build secure connection through real practice. To support safety, trust, and transformation for everyone, we ask all members to agree to the following:
1. Be an Explorer
Come with curiosity and openness. Expect to encounter new ideas, try unfamiliar practices, and sometimes feel discomfort—that’s part of growth. You always have choice in how much you engage.
2. Confidentiality & Care
What’s shared here, stays here. Please respect the privacy of fellow members by not sharing their stories outside the group. Feel free to share the tools and practices widely, but keep people’s personal details private.
3. Show Up With Presence
Come as you are—grounded, clothed, and ready to participate without multitasking. Presence matters more than perfection.
4. Honor Your Body & Capacity
You are always at choice. Take breaks, stretch, turn your camera off briefly, or adapt practices as needed. Tending to your own body and nervous system is part of the work.
5. Communicate With Kindness
Practice conscious communication: listen actively, speak with clarity, and use “I” statements. When triggered, pause and notice before reacting. Mistakes happen—repair and curiosity are welcome here.
6. Practice Brave Respect
This is a non-sexualized practice space. We prioritize platonic safety, respect across differences, and honoring boundaries. We welcome diverse expressions of gender, sexuality, race, ability, and relationship style.
7. Growth Mindset > Perfection
This is not about “getting it right.” It’s about practice. With practice, needs become clearer, defenses soften, communication deepens, and bodies learn new patterns of safety.
8. This Is Coaching, Not Therapy
We’ll use somatic tools, reflection, and practice spaces to support growth. This membership does not replace therapy or medical care. If deeper trauma support is needed, please seek guidance from a licensed professional.
Thank You
