Embodied Parenting
Three-week SELF-CARE course THAT GOES DEEP
Learn Somatic Practice to tune into the sensations in our bodies, and use them as our barometer of capacity to hold the complexities of parenting.
Parenting from the body can be a game-changing experience. We learn to separate our triggers from our children, to understand their behaviors through a somatic lens to help them regulate, and create a happier home based on open communication, deeper understanding, and love that is viscerally unconditional.

Join this group and together learn to parent from a creative space, instead of a reactive, “trauma” response.
In a series of 3 classes spread over 3 weeks, learn to hold yourself and care for yourself while caring for others.
This group is NOT about changing your child or correcting their behavior nor about healing trauma with your parents.
This group IS about practicing how to hold ourselves in challenging situations with our kids, and how best to support them from a place of detached groundedness.

No. The purpose of this group is to practice the felt sense of supporting ourselves as a caretaker while simultaneously gaining resolution through gathering, sharing, witnessing and being witnessed.

Circle is for parents only.
We are quite enmeshed with our children. When parents are present by themselves and for themselves it is a different headspace - the awareness of the changes that we are going through as moms is more accessible.
Circle “works” best if parents come alone to be fully able to receive and rest from their caretaking duties.
