Working With Jessica

A Foundation of Trust, Presence & Mutual Respect

Welcome to the lotus pond. I believe meaningful transformation begins when we create space to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with ourselves. My approach to meditation coaching combines mindfulness practices, reflective inquiry, intuitive guidance, and personal exploration. Each journey is unique, and our work together is shaped by your experiences, intentions, and evolving needs. I invite you to read through the following principles before we begin. They reflect how I approach our work, what you can expect from me, and the commitments that help us create a meaningful coaching relationship.

the lotus pond coaching guidelines

  • Meditation coaching is a partnership. I bring my professional experience, presence, intuition, and coaching methodologies. You bring your lived experiences, curiosity, honesty, and willingness to explore.

    There is no expectation to arrive with perfect clarity, a particular meditation experience, or a predetermined goal. Our work is about discovering what feels true and meaningful for you.

  • Meditation is a practice, not a performance.

    Throughout our work, I encourage you to approach your experiences with curiosity, compassion, and a beginner's mind.

    While our sessions provide guidance and support, much of the meaningful integration happens in everyday life. I invite you to take ownership of your journey by making time for your practices, reflecting on your experiences, and honoring the commitments you make to yourself.

    We can move gently without losing our sense of accountability.

  • I maintain a small, intentional private practice so that I can offer each client my full attention and presence.

    Our work is grounded in mutual respect for each other's time, energy, and personal boundaries.

    This includes arriving on time, communicating changes promptly, honoring our scheduling arrangements, and approaching our conversations with honesty and care.

    I also recognize that the right coaching relationship depends on mutual fit. I reserve the right to decline or discontinue coaching when I believe another form of support would be more appropriate or our working relationship is no longer aligned.

  • You are welcome to reach out through our agreed communication channel for scheduling questions, brief check-ins, and sharing reflections.

    I respond thoughtfully during my working hours, but I am not available for continuous messaging or immediate support.

    Deeper conversations and coaching explorations are best reserved for our scheduled sessions.

  • Private meditation coaching sessions are generally 90 minutes and may take place online or in person.

    Standard session rates:

    • Taiwan: NT$4,500 per session

    • International online: US$150 per session

    • In-person venue contributions, when applicable, are confirmed before booking.

    Coaching is offered on a pay-as-you-go basis, without requiring a long-term package. Payment is made in advance to confirm each appointment.

  • I kindly request at least 48 hours' notice whenever possible so that I may offer the appointment to another client.

    Cancellations or rescheduling requests made at least 24 hours before a session do not incur a coaching cancellation fee.

    For cancellations made less than 24 hours before a session, a fee of NT$1,500 or US$50 applies.

    For in-person sessions, any actual nonrefundable venue costs may also apply, up to NT$1,200 at Infinium.

    Unexpected emergencies will be considered individually.

    Repeated last-minute cancellations or missed appointments may lead to changes in future booking arrangements or a reconsideration of our coaching relationship.

  • Our coaching conversations are treated with care, discretion, and respect for your privacy, subject to applicable legal and safety-related exceptions.

    I may maintain private session notes, intake information, and administrative records to support our work.

    Your personal experiences will not be used publicly as testimonials or shared in identifiable form for marketing without your separate permission.

    Session recordings require mutual consent. Any use of external tools to process identifiable client information will be subject to appropriate notice and applicable consent requirements.

  • Meditation coaching is intended to support personal growth, self-awareness, and well-being.

    It is not a substitute for psychotherapy, psychiatric care, medical treatment, or crisis support.

    When appropriate, I may recommend additional support from qualified professionals.

    You remain responsible for your personal choices, actions, and well-being.
