Welcoming, gently held

Community Guidelines

Fika Pause is a small, warm space for slowing down and finding meaning together. These guidelines hold our circle gently so everyone feels safe to participate.

Our shared values

Respect. Treat every person with kindness, even in disagreement.

Kindness. Lead with warmth. A gentle word is almost always the better one.

Authenticity. Show up as you are. Honest reflections are more meaningful than polished ones.

Inclusion. Welcome people of every background, faith, ability, and walk of life.

Meaningful participation. Share content and recommendations that genuinely add to our community.

Please don't

·Harass, bully, threaten, or demean another person.

·Post spam, repeated promotions, or misleading content.

·Share unsafe, sexual, hateful, violent, or illegal content.

·Submit places or pop-ups that aren't real, welcoming, or public.

·Impersonate others or share private information without consent.

How we tend the garden

Anyone can report content that feels unsafe, inappropriate, spammy, or not in the spirit of Fika. Reports go to our moderation team for a gentle review. We may hide or remove content, and in serious or repeat cases we may ask someone to step away from the community.

You can also quietly block another person so their content disappears from your view.
