Purpose & Spirit of This Code This Practitioner Code of Conduct (“Code”) sets out the standards of behaviour, professionalism, and service quality expected from all wellness practitioners (“Practitioners”) who offer services through the Aham Nirvana Platform (“Platform”), operated by ABRYX TECH LLP (“LLP”, “we”, “us”, “our”). The Platform is designed to support self reflection, meditation, manifestation, self improvement, and holistic conscious/spiritual healing through independent practitioners of meditation, reiki, tarot reading, astrology, yoga, breathwork, hypnotherapy, EFT/NLP coaching, chakra healing, manifestation coaching, and related modalities. This Code is intended to protect clients (“Clients”), maintain trust in the Platform, and uphold the spiritual, ethical, and professional values of Aham Nirvana. Terms used in this Code (such as “Platform”, “Services”, “Practitioner”, “Client”, “Session”) shall carry the same meaning as in the Platform’s Terms and Conditions / Practitioner Agreement. In case of any ambiguity, this Code should be read harmoniously with those documents. 2. Core Values & Non Discrimination Practitioners are expected to embody the following values in all interactions on the Platform: • Non judgmental & inclusive space: Treat every Client with dignity, respect, and care, regardless of their background, beliefs, or life choices. • No discrimination: Do not discriminate against any Client on the basis of religion, caste, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, nationality, marital status, or any other protected characteristic. • Respect for diverse traditions: Honour diverse spiritual, cultural, and philosophical traditions. Do not disparage, mock, or undermine any tradition, deity, practice, or community. • Professional warmth: Be kind, patient, and present. The healing space must feel safe, confidential, and supportive. Any form of hate speech, derogatory remarks, or exclusionary behaviour is strictly prohibited. 3. Scope of Practice & Prohibited Claims 3.1 Nature of Services Practitioners acknowledge and agree that: • The Services offered on the Platform are not medical, psychological, or psychiatric treatment. • Practitioners are independent wellness providers, not employees, agents, or legal representatives of the LLP. • The Platform and the Services are not a substitute for professional medical care, mental health treatment, or emergency services. 3.2 Prohibited Claims & Conduct Practitioners must not: • Claim to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical or mental health condition (e.g., depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, etc.). • Guarantee specific outcomes (e.g., “You will be healed in 3 sessions”, “100% manifestation guaranteed”, “I can remove all your problems”). • Claim to replace therapy, medicine, or doctors, or discourage Clients from seeking appropriate medical or mental health care. • Claim supernatural powers, guaranteed spiritual results, or guaranteed life changes (e.g., “I will make your ex return”, “I guarantee job in 7 days”, “I can remove black magic”). • Use protected titles such as “doctor”, “psychologist”, “therapist”, “counsellor”, or similar, unless legally entitled and permitted under applicable law. Practitioners must clearly state their qualifications, training, and limitations in their profile and during Sessions, and must not misrepresent their expertise or affiliations. 3.3 Duty to Refer If a Practitioner reasonably believes that a Client may be experiencing: • Suicidal thoughts, self harm urges, or severe emotional distress • Severe trauma, psychosis, or other serious mental health concerns • Any condition that requires licensed medical or mental health intervention the Practitioner must gently and clearly encourage the Client to seek help from a qualified medical or mental health professional, and must not attempt to manage such situations beyond their scope. 4. Professional Conduct & Session Standards 4.1 Dedicated, Distraction Free Sessions Practitioners must ensure that each Session is conducted with full attention and professionalism. Specifically, Practitioners must: • Maintain a quiet, private space with no interruptions (no family members, pets, background noise, phone calls, etc.). • Use a neutral, non distracting background (no clutter, no inappropriate visuals, no politically sensitive or controversial content). • Dress in professional attire (no sleepwear, no revealing or inappropriate clothing). • Refrain from eating, smoking, chewing, or engaging in other distracting activities during Sessions. • Keep their camera on during video Sessions, except in cases of genuine technical issues or Client requested audio only Sessions. • Avoid multitasking (no checking messages, emails, social media, or other apps during the Session). 4.2 Technical Requirements Practitioners must ensure: • A stable internet connection and working audio/video setup. • A device (phone/laptop/desktop) that supports clear video and audio. • Basic technical readiness (testing camera, mic, and internet before Sessions). Repeated technical failures that disrupt Sessions may be treated as a breach of professional standards. 4.3 Punctuality & Attendance • Practitioners are expected to join the Session room 3–5 minutes before the scheduled start time. • A Practitioner will be considered late if they join more than 5 minutes after the scheduled start time. • A Practitioner will be considered a no show if they: o Do not join the Session at all, or o Join more than 10 minutes late. Consequences: After 2 no show/late joining incidents (as defined above), the Platform reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to: • Issue a warning, • Impose a penalty, • Temporarily suspend, or • Remove the Practitioner from the Platform. 4.4 Cancellations & Rescheduling by Practitioners • Practitioners may cancel a Session only if they do so at least 2 hours before the scheduled start time. • Cancelling with less than 2 hours’ notice is not permitted; if the Practitioner does not join the Session, it will be treated as a no show. • Practitioners must not cancel more than 2 Sessions in a calendar month (whether last minute or otherwise). Exceeding this limit may result in penalty, suspension, or removal, at the Platform’s discretion. • Frequent cancellations, even if technically compliant, may be reviewed as a pattern of unreliability. 4.5 Client No Shows • If a Client does not join the Session, the Practitioner will still be considered to have rendered the Session and will be paid as per the Platform’s payout policy if the Client is charged for the Session. • Practitioners must wait in the Session room for a reasonable time (at least 15 minutes) before marking the Client as absent, unless otherwise instructed by the Platform. 5.
