Class Description
Mindful Parenting involves learning to see ourselves and our children with more compassion.  We understand there is no such thing as a perfect parent. We do the best we can under very challenging circumstances. Mindful parenting teaches us to take a step back and notice the bigger picture: our beliefs and expectations, our behaviors, our children’s behavior, and how we can learn to put healthier, more productive patterns of behavior in place.  It is not a step by step “how to parent” class, but rather a series of skills and practices that helps parents get in touch with their inherent wisdom. It embraces the growth mindset of ” I know what to do when things go wrong.” In short, mindful parenting can give us confidence in ourselves.

I do hope to meet you soon!

All my best
