Raising You/Raising Me: An Experiential Somatic Workshop for Parents

As parents we are constantly bombarded with parenting books, social media, and classes to learn how to be at our best for our children. These can be extremely helpful in acquiring theoretical knowledge, learning skills, and troubleshooting challenges.

But have you ever thought to yourself, “that’s great in theory but it’s so hard to do in the moment!”

In this workshop we come together to make space for YOU - especially the messy, complicated, and ambivalent parts that sometimes get pushed aside in the chaos and unrelenting demands of being a caregiver.

 FAQ’s

What do you mean by Experiential?

Using movement, imagery, breath, and sound we invite the full range of emotions we hold in our bodies. This powerful work invites a greater level of awareness, an increase in energetic flow, and ultimately greater freedom to make deliberate choices in our day-to-day life.

 I can’t make it for this date/time, will there be another opportunity in the future?

Yes, email me and I’ll make sure you’re notified for the next session.

Do I have to share personal information with the group?

Participants will be invited to share their thoughts and experiences at the level in which they feel comfortable.
