Parent with compassion and trust (even when you lose your cool)!
Tired of constantly bickering with your kids and your spouse?
Want a concrete plan of how you’re going to manage the next time your child whines, screams “No!”, or annoyingly begs for something they want?
Discover what helps you remember how much you love each other even when you forget.
Join us in a safe space where you can bring anything you’d like help with…anything that triggers or irritates you about your kids or your spouse (or yourself for that matter)…and journey with other parents like you to explore what’s so important to you about that.
LISTEN to Wendy McDonnell introduce this event…
You’re going to play some games, have interesting conversations, and practice skills. There will be some talking but mostly you’ll be guided to discover your own style in expressing what’s important to you and caring for the ones you love no matter how all of you express yourselves. It will be a fun and meaningful learning time together!
Carl Rogers once said, “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself as I am, then I can change.” You’ll start there AND in order to change a habit, you need to know what to put in its place. So, you’ll get concrete skills and key practices to take home with you along with a mind, body, and heart experience of what that may look like in your real family. You’ll also take away ideas and questions that will carry you on your lifelong journey of growing and learning through relationships. This is just the beginning! Sign up today by clicking on the words “Register today!” You’ll see them below the event information.
This is especially for you if:
- you want a practical, concrete plan for transforming a challenge in your family life
- you want to meet other parents like you who lose their cool and doubt it’s even possible to meet everyone’s needs
- you’re a conscious parent creating your own flexible lifestyle and communication style
- you’re interested in developing your listening skills no matter how your kids or partner express themselves
- you’re interested in trusting your intuition and honestly expressing what’s in your heart with care for the ones you love
- you want to know want to say and do when your child screams “NO!” or annoyingly begs for something he or she wants
