Only one: re-read your provider contract. It's a contractual issue, no 
more. If they permit such activities, remain them about; if not, your

I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. 
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. 
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
