Transformational Parenting: Worshops or Online Classes
Parenting is a chance to reframe challenges as opportunities for learning, questioning your assumptions & automatic ways of doing things, & choosing consciously how you want to live your life.
The workshops are for anyone who lives or works with adults or children and want to become more aware of themselves and how they interact with others, to create a more loving and encouraging environment. |

It’s sufficient if just the main caretaker completes the course. However if both parents participate the transformation in your family can go deeper and you can support each other in relating to your children. This course teaches the essential tools for heart-centered parenting.
Anyone can do this by learning to respond to what is in front of them, calmly, honestly and clearly. Just be present, and the knowledge comes all on its own. We all have access to it.
· To access this natural intelligence, learn the basics of embodiment, sensing, transparent communication, authenticity and boundaries.
· We teach unique tools to help you be present so you can perceive what is happening in your family environment so that you can respond intelligently and appropriately.
· We enable you to do away with concepts & put the fun & freedom back in parenting.
· Our parenting approach aims to increase your self-confidence and parental ability, as well as improving your family relationships through mutual trust and understanding.
· When you as the parent transform your way of doing things by becoming aware, the solutions for your child will become apparent as you relate to your child.
· Transformational parenting – it works both ways
