Introduction to the pillars of Conscious Parenting
DEAR PARENT(S),
This 1-day Radiant Parenting Workshop is created with the intention to “dip a toe in the water” in the field of Conscious Parenting and to inspire and ignite a process of self-awareness, ownership and love in the journey of parenthood.
Whereas the Radiant Parenting 6-week program is a longer term process with a guaranteed level of attention for, intimacy between, depth in and impact on the participating parents, this 1-day introduction workshop is a perfect format to get a glimpse of what it feels like to be together as a couple in a group setting that is devoted to presence, vulnerability and connection.
During this day, you will be invited and guided by the power of a group of other parents coming together, to look at, welcome and express any challenges, difficulties or suppressed emotions that exist within you, your relationship and/or your parent-child dynamic with the intention to create more intimacy and connection.
A day where it is not about the kids, but about you and your partner in relationship to them.
PILLARS OF THE WORKSHOP
SEE clearly - Behavioural Coping Mechanisms
We will touch upon the various behavioural styles that are most common in parenting. These styles show reactive patterns that operate most often unconsciously in reaction to the behaviour of our children when are nervous system is activated. They come from a triggered place within us that wants to avoid feeling uncomfortable feelings.
EXPRESS authentically - Emotional Regulation
We will explore what it feels like to inquire into and share with our partners and with other parents in the group about the triggers and activations we experience in parenting and in the family dynamics. Any (uncomfortable) emotions and feelings that come up are invited to be expressed. Some embodiment practices will be shared to help regulate ourselves in daily life when we get emotionally activated.
A day where you give yourself and your partner a moment to reflect, release and connect in the midst of busy family life
