Seven simple agreements

Rules

A few clear rules make it easier for everyone to relax, join in and leave when they need to.

  1. 01

    What's said in the circle stays in the circle.

  2. 02

    No photos of anyone's face without asking first.

  3. 03

    Come alone, or bring a friend. Both are welcome.

  4. 04

    No selling, pitching or recruiting.

  5. 05

    You can pass on any question, always, without a reason.

  6. 06

    Leave whenever you need to. No explaining needed.

  7. 07

    Be kind, especially to the woman who came on her own.

Why seven

They make the circle easier to enter. Privacy, permission, passing and leaving are clear before anyone has to ask.

The rest is ordinary hospitality. Give people room, ask before taking photos and be kind to the person who arrived alone.
