Finding the Middle Way: A Communication Workshop For Parents.
It can be very difficult to remain calm and true to your beliefs and values about parenting when faced with a screaming child. Everyone who comes to parenting in a mindful way struggles with this.
Old habits, patterns and beliefs, criticisms and the opinions of others, as well as how you were parented, all play a role in creating internal turmoil and anxiety when faced with difficult “parenting moments”.
Finding your true voice as a parent can be tricky and can leave you feeling anxious, exhausted and stressed.
This workshop will help you find compassionate, gentle, wise ways to communicate with your children.
Learn how, when and why to say “no”
learn to set boundaries that are respectful
Distinguish between the needs and wants of your child: why it is important to know the difference
How can the needs of the individuals within the family be met as the child grows older?
Deal respectfully with anger in your child and yourself
Cope with behaviours that you were taught were “wrong” when you were growing up
Overcome and integrating your own childhood experience
Maintain balance and harmony within your home and relationships while still parenting in a mindful way.
