Parenting is hard and it brings up so many emotions in us – we are learning to parent our children and we are learning about ourselves at the same time.
The 'Emotionally Connected Parent' is a safe and non-judgemental space for busy, courageous mums and dads committed to growing as parents to become confident in holding clear boundaries and your child(ren)'s emotions, all while building a stronger connection with them.
Supportively held by Elisa and Joel, it's a space where we can lean on each other and share the challenges of parenthood, receiving warmth and helpful tools for managing ourselves better when it gets hard.
The sessions aim to address some of these questions:
💫How do we manage our own emotions when we are triggered by our children?
💫How do we model healthy approaches to emotions like anger, when we may not have had those growing up?
💫What are our children, and our reactions to them, trying to teach us about ourselves?
The Emotionally Connected Parent is a 4-part experiential workshop series - held in the welcoming space of Little Origins in Frome, that includes 4 sessions each centered around a specific theme:
💥Anger: How to live and model healthy approaches to anger, how to manage your child's anger?
💧Disappointment: How do we help our children through emotions like sadness, disappointment, worry and anxiety? How we can best be our own and our children's support in dealing with a rainbow of emotions, in a society pressured to feel "eternal joy"?
🌱Grounded presence: How to find balance and calm when we are ourselves triggered by our children, and how to support our children's own emotional regulation?
🫶Connection: How to nurture connection with your child and address the obstacles that keep you from being truly present with them?
*Sessions are every 2 weeks starting Oct 22nd for mothers and Oct 23rd for fathers.*
