2. What these terms cover
These terms apply when you use the website and when you, as a consumer, buy products and courses from us. Together with our Privacy Policy, Refund Policy and Shipping Policy, they make up the agreement between you and us. These terms do not limit the rights you have under consumer law.
3. Account
You are responsible for making sure the information you give us is correct and for keeping your login details safe. Your account is personal.
4. Orders and agreement
The agreement is formed when you receive our order confirmation by email. We may refuse or cancel an order, for example if a price is clearly wrong or we suspect fraud. If you have already paid, you get the full amount back. These terms apply to purchases for personal use. If you would like to resell our products, separate reseller terms apply; contact us at cs@consciousbreathing.com.
5. Prices and payment
Prices are shown including VAT where VAT applies. Shipping costs are shown at checkout before you confirm your purchase. The price that applies is the one shown when you place your order. You can pay by card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Klarna, Swish, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Shop Pay. Which payment methods you see depends on where you are shopping from.
6. Product information
We describe our products as accurately as we can. Colours and appearance may differ slightly depending on your screen.
7. Delivery
Delivery time in Sweden is usually 3–5 days. If a parcel is lost or damaged in transit, we send you a new item or refund you. If your delivery is delayed, you have the rights that follow from consumer law. Read more in our Shipping Policy.
8. Right of withdrawal and 30-day open purchase
By law you have 14 days to change your mind, counted from the day you received the goods. We extend this to a 30-day open purchase policy. To return your purchase, use our withdrawal form or email cs@consciousbreathing.com. You pay the return shipping yourself. We refund you using the same payment method you used for the purchase, within 2–3 business days of receiving the goods.
For hygiene reasons the right of withdrawal does not apply to Relaxator and Sleep Tape once the seal has been broken. Special conditions apply to the Cardihaler and Cardisuit. You can read all the conditions in our Refund Policy.
9. Complaints about faults
If something is wrong with your product, we would like to know. Under the Swedish Consumer Sales Act you have 3 years to complain about faults that were present when the goods were delivered. You can read more about your legal rights in our Refund Policy. Contact us at cs@consciousbreathing.com.
10. Personal data
We process your personal data to deliver your order and to give you service. Read more in our Privacy Policy.
11. Health information
The information on the website and in our courses is general and does not replace advice from a doctor or other healthcare professional. If you have a medical condition, or are unsure whether the products are right for you, talk to your healthcare provider before you start.
12. Spread the knowledge
We want knowledge about breathing and CO₂ to reach as many people as possible. You are welcome to use what you learn in your own life, in your work and when you teach others. You are also welcome to quote and share our texts, as long as you name Conscious Breathing as the source.
The only things we ask are that you do not resell or republish our course videos and course material, and that you do not use our name or logo in a way that makes it look as if you represent us. If you would like to work with us or use our name, get in touch. We would love to hear from you.
13. Reviews and feedback
Thank you for sharing your experiences. We may use reviews, ideas and anything else you send us to develop and talk about our business. The content must not be unlawful or offensive.

The website may contain links and tools from third parties. We are not responsible for their content or terms.
15. Liability
We are not liable for indirect losses, such as loss of income, except where we have been negligent or where mandatory law says otherwise.
16. Shopify
The store runs on Shopify, but your purchase is made directly between you and Conscious Breathing Institute AB. Shopify is not a party to the purchase and is not responsible for it.
17. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. For your purchase, the terms that were published when you placed your order apply.
18. Disputes and applicable law
If we cannot agree, you can turn to the Swedish National Board for Consumer Disputes (Allmänna reklamationsnämnden, ARN), Box 174, 101 23 Stockholm, arn.se. We follow ARN's recommendations. Swedish law applies to the purchase.
