A Course in Mindful Parenting

 

A 2-hour workshop in mindful parenting for those who are interested in learning about mindfulness or for those who have participated in a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) course.
Mindful Parenting is being fully present in each moment with your child with kindness, consideration and compassion.
Class Description: So often the demands of life affect our ability to practice patience and deep listening with our children, which can impact the quality of the parent/child interaction. Identifying reactive patterns and exploring options for attending to the unplanned stressors can improve the quality of life and relationship between a parent and child. In this 2-hour workshop, participants will be introduced to the foundations of Mindfulness practice and techniques for paying attention to present moment experience while engaging with their children.
