Using MindfulRead.ing on fair terms.

By reading or sharing links to MindfulRead.ing , you agree to these terms. If something here does not work for you, please stop using the site.

What MindfulRead.ing is

MindfulRead.ing publishes short essays on everyday mental wellbeing. The site is informational reading, not a service agreement for therapy, coaching, or crisis support. Our Disclaimer says more about limits of the content; it is part of how we expect the site to be used.

Not professional care

Nothing on MindfulRead.ing replaces advice from a qualified professional. If you rely on any essay in place of care, you do so against our intent. Read the disclaimer for crisis guidance.

Intellectual property

Text, layout, branding, and original graphics on MindfulRead.ing belong to us or our licensors unless otherwise noted. You may read in a browser, bookmark, and link to pages in a normal, non-misleading way. Please do not copy full essays for republication, scrape the site for training or bulk reuse, or remove credits without permission. If you would like to reuse material, reach out through channels we provide when we have them.

Third-party services

Delivery of the site (for example hosting, DNS, and placeholder images) involves third-party providers. Their terms and privacy practices apply to what they do on their side. We describe our angle on that in Privacy.

Acceptable use

Do not try to break, overload, or probe the site in ways that could harm other readers or our infrastructure. Do not use MindfulRead.ing to harass anyone or to automate abusive traffic.

Links out

Essays may link elsewhere. We do not control external sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, or policies.

Changes and availability

We may edit essays, routes, or these terms from time to time. The site may occasionally be unavailable for maintenance or reasons outside our control. We do not promise uninterrupted access.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, MindfulRead.ing and its editors are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on any essay. Our total liability for any claim related to the site should not exceed what you paid to use MindfulRead.ing — which is zero, because the reading is free.

Privacy
