FitInFlow is an independent, reader-supported website about yoga, mindful living, houseplants, essential oils and the world’s traditional and folk wellness practices. In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the operator of FitInFlow.space. “You” refers to anyone who visits or uses the Site.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you acknowledge the practices described here.
2. Important notice: informational content only
All content on FitInFlow, including articles, tables, images and downloads, is published for general informational, educational and cultural purposes only. It describes traditions, beliefs, history and folklore. It is not a guide to action, and it is not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
- Nothing on this Site is an instruction to treat, cure or prevent any illness or medical condition.
- Descriptions of homeopathy, Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, essential oils, plants, mantras or energy practices explain what these traditions believe or teach. They are not claims that these practices work as medical treatment.
- If you are unwell, or think you might be, see a doctor or other qualified healthcare professional first. Never delay seeking medical care, or stop a treatment your doctor prescribed, because of something you read here.
- In a medical emergency, call your local emergency number (911 in the United States) immediately.
- Check with a qualified professional before trying any new practice, oil, plant or supplement, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, caring for a child, taking medication, or living with a health condition. Many plants and essential oils are toxic to children and pets.
