Listening to the Child

Description

After 36 years, of working with The Montessori Method, (with both parents and children), I am offering Conscious Parenting sessions online, to support parents who struggle to be present with their children.

When we become parents... somehow over time, (with all the best intentions in the world), fall into the trap of endless routines; unreal expectations, and bucket loads of control, never considering the effect we are having on our children's self esteem and well being. Add to this the endless stream of social media overload, un-vetted (and often inaccurate) advice, peer pressure and expectations, it's no wonder parents get lost in it all...

Childhood is a very short ‘hood’ and in the blink of an eye our children are into teenage ‘hood’ and adult ‘hood‘ and we are left wondering, where the time has gone. All we truly have is the present moment.

In this session we will explore....

1. The art of listening 

2. The power to listen
