Kava Safety & Consent

Kava will be served intentionally and in moderate amounts to support grounding, relaxation, and clarity. Participation with the medicine is always optional, and you are welcome to attend and fully participate in the circle without drinking kava.

Please do not consume kava if any of the following apply:

• You are pregnant or breastfeeding

• You have a known liver condition

• You are currently taking medications that affect the liver or central nervous system (including certain anti-anxiety medications, antidepressants, or sedatives)

• You have been advised by a healthcare provider to avoid kava

Kava should not be combined with alcohol. We ask that participants arrive alcohol-free and avoid alcohol for the remainder of the evening.

If you are unsure whether kava is right for you, please feel free to reach out ahead of time. An alternative, non-kava beverage will be available, and opting out will be fully respected and supported.

This gathering prioritizes consent, safety, and personal sovereignty. You are always encouraged to listen to your body and choose what feels right for you.
